They Will Enter Zion With Signing

The reports I'm getting are of very heavy turnout, particularly in North Tulsa. For example, the World reported the wait at Mt. Zion Baptist Church at more than an hour and a half. If were were to see Tulsa County go blue this year, this is exactly the reports we'd be seeing right now.

I've added a couple of gadgets from MSNBC to the blog that should report realtime election results, once the polls start to close. If you are in front of a computer then, stay tuned here.

An American Prayer

Conservatives for Obama

You probably know about the Republican moderates supporting Obama, like Colin Powell.

What you may not have heard so much about is the amazing number of Conservative pundits who have come out in support of Obama. One example is Christopher Buckley, son of arch conservative William F. Buckley, founder of National Review.

Another is favorite Conservative talk show guest Andrew Sullivan. Here he was on Colbert last night making a strong case for Obama being the Conservative choice for president.
