A Life Inspired: What Do You Think?

Over at www.GraceAlley.com, we've got a Forum set up for discussing the 2008 Presidential election. Americans have become pretty apathetic in voting and I believe there is so much power in the vote! I'm not fond of a lot of constitutional amendment changes, but maybe we should consider adding, "You can't complain if you don't vote."

What do you think? Are you discussing the candidates and the issues? Why or why not?

Chuck Norris Backs Huckabee

From the Newsweek article:
"Here's a Chuck Norris fact you may not know. If Chuck Norris endorses you and appears in one of your campaign's TV ads, you take the lead in an Iowa poll and your Web server crashes. That's what happened to Mike Huckabee, the shrewder-than-you-realize former Arkansas governor (sound familiar?) who has become a major player in the tight Republican presidential race. The ad opens with Huckabee deadpanning: "My plan to secure the border? Two words: Chuck Norris." The camera moves back to reveal the Man Himself, who praises Huckabee as a solid, gun-loving, IRS-loathing conservative. Huckabee adds a twist at the end. "I approved this message ... So did Chuck." The ad, which ran in Iowa on cable for a week, has generated an astonishing 1.5 million YouTube views and clogged the campaign's Web site. Huckabee was rising in Iowa even before the ad, but he took the lead with Chuck as Huckster."

The commercial, a bit cheeky, but at least it's not the typical mud-slinging campaign!
