Obama offers us a better future

I can always usually tell by the tone of letters printed here if someone is a Republican and McCain supporter.

The letters are often filled with cynicism, sarcasm and distrust.

Obama is too youthful, hopeful and intelligent for these folks.

It's a shame. We have a chance to turn a page for a better, more respected America, and instead it looks like we'll end up with a guy who is a one-trick pony; he wants to be the world's top cop.

This time, we need a president who will do something for America. I'd suggest Obama bashers check their IRA and 401(k) balances. Can you afford four more years?
