Obama Takes the Lead

Yesterday the polls showed Obama overtaking McCain by nearly seven points. That's an intense lead in an election as close as this one. I must say, as avid as I am in my Democratic ideals, I'm surprised that Obama is pushing ahead. To be honest, I've been having my doubts about his ability to swing some of the red votes. These last few days have started to open my eyes to the reality of Obama's ability to win this election. I'm pumped.
