Cowabunga! It's Super Tuesday

Super Tuesday headlines are plastered in newspapers, on television, as well as online media sites. Twenty-four states will head out to vote today. Wisconsin is not one of them and I'm envious of those of you that have the opportunity to choose which candidate you think will be a better leader of this country.

The Democratic candidates, Senator Hillary Clinton of New York and Senator Barack Obama of Illinois are in a political wrestling match, so-to-speak. After the very polite Democratic debate in Los Angeles last Thursday I'm anxious to find out which candidate will come out on top. As of last night's report on CNN, Hillary was in the lead with Obama catching up quickly.

On the Republican side, Senator John McCain of Arizona is in the top spot, while former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney and former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee trail behind. Congressman Ron Paul's status is barely mentioned as his rank falls behind Huckabee.

The biggest issues affecting today's votes are (in random order) Health Care, Iraq, Education, Immigration, Gun Control, Gay Rights, Abortion, Iran, and the Mortgage Crisis.

Americans are seeking the one candidate who can address these issues and take the necessary steps to solve these problems.

Who will Americans choose? Which Democratic candidate will win out? Barack or Hillary? Will McCain keep his lead over Romney? Can Huckabee and Paul catch up?

Since I'm a fan of open discussions, I encourage all of you to leave your thoughts in the comments section. Tell us what you think!

I am waiting to hear the results. I think it's still going to be a tight race even after today - especially for Clinton and Obama.
And they already declared Huckabee the winner in WV. I was kind of surprised that they could call it already.
I will be watching the news tonight waiting for the results!

I'm currently living in Mississippi, we don't get to vote until March 28th... I think you forgot to mention poverty, crime, drugs, and infrastructure. I guess we all have different issues that are important to us.

Dearest Mommy Bloggers I beg of you to consider using a full rss feed, pretty please with sugar on top.

I'm voting for any candidate who promises that they won't leave US citizens on their own for three days in the next national disaster, personally.

Marsha, thank you for including the issues of poverty, crime, drugs and infrastructure. Those are very important issues. I only listed the ones I could think of from the top of my head as I was writing this post!

Brandie, I'm waiting for results with anticipation also!
