Barack Obama Volunteers in Flooded Area

As he has almost every day throughout this campaign, Barack Obama reminded me again today why I support him.

He volunteered this weekend in a flood stricken part of rural Illinois, filling sandbags and talking with folks there. But he didn't leave it with a photo op - he used his extensive e-mail list across the flood stricken areas to ask his supporters to go out and pitch in as well. Wish I were there - I'd be right there beside him with a shovel.
