Who are you volunteering for? I am torn between Nancy and Obama. Both would be great Democrats in the Senate, and both would take a seat from the old-fat-white-men's stranglehold on the upper house. Which one is most electable? Priority 1 is taking the seat from the Repigs.

2. Obama
Skinner is a novice. I like her, but Obama deserves this.

I've contacted Obama's site, but haven't heard back. I'm in the 2nd Cong Dist. I would imagine that Obama is a lock where I live.

6. Nancy Even Said It's Just A Lark
She doesn't think she's got a chance. But, she feels she should put up or shut up. She stated her chances as "slim and none" in the Tribune.

I like Obama, too! Smart, passionate, committed and savvy. Takes no guff.

7. Obama
...I don't know enough about Nancy Skinner. I don't listen to the radio, and I don't know if I want a radio show host in office.

No offense, I'm glad she's on the radio.
