Crossing Over - WSJ.com
A story in the Wall Street Journal about working class woman crossing over for Obama.
Some of the quotes are emblematic of the whole "those folks make me nervous, but I'm losing too much money to go in a different direction" that the political dialogue have seemed to move towards.
Quote:
Kenlyn Watson, the white owner of a beauty salon here called the Mane Attraction, was certain four weeks ago that she would vote for Sen. McCain. Among other things, she was suspicious that a President Obama "would try to right the injustices of 200 years against the black man in four years." Now, the 50-year-old says she is "on the fence" and seriously considering voting for Sen. Obama.
