Last Push For Obama Before Tuesday

With Super Tuesday only one day away, Michael Chabon and Ayelet Waldman are hitting the editorial pages to push their candidate, Barack Obama.

In The Washington Post on Monday, Chabon says up until now, he’s patiently listened as people told him reasons to not vote for Obama.

“But now, with everything seeming to come down, at last, to the first Tuesday in February, and in the wake of an all-out, months-long push by the cynicism industry to cook up an entire line of bad reasons ready to heat and serve, I admit that I’m getting tired of listening to rationales from people who know that Obama is a remarkable, even an extraordinary politician, the kind who comes along, in this era of snakes and empty smiles, no more than once a generation,” Chabon writes.

And on Sunday, Chabon and Waldman tried to win over undecideds in their home state through an op-ed in the San Francisco Chronicle.

To date, Chabon and Waldman have raised $25,930 for Obama. It’s just shy of their final goal of $30,000.
