I'm a Republican who'll be voting Barack Obama on November 4th!

By far the best speech on that podium!

So I'm not the only one who thought he sounded like Kermit.

Makes me proud I was born and raised in Iowa. I understand he and his opponent in 2006 ran one of the cleanest and most respectful campaigns ever.

An established Republican is voting for Obama. America is in a crisis and we need Obama. Leach understands that, I wish the other Republicans would too. Obama for America!

Watching this moved me to tears...you couldn't ask for a better indictment of what our government has fallen to. His stance reminds me of of a beloved former governor from my home state of Rhode Island, who later became Navy Secretary and Senator...the late John Chafee. He worked across the aisles to get things done for the good of the country, political dogma be damned. I see a lot of this highlighted in Mr. Leach's speech, and in what Obama stands for.

I agree with others - this is an OUTSTANDING speech!! If only the Republicans had more folks like Leach!!
