Hillary and Barack Both made good speeches today

Martin luther king day was well..today and both deomocratic candidates had heartfelt speeches that gave this great man his due credit. Hillary clinton spoke of how she had actually met Dr. King and how it has effected her life and Barack spoke about how we need to continue King's dream.

John Mccain refuses secret service protection

John Mccain has continually refused secret service protection throughout his campaign.
He is worried that gaurds may make potential voters feel distanced from him.
While I am not a republican I must admit that this is a pretty badass thing for Mccain to do and feel that it will help him in the general election. I also commend him for his speech earlier (martin luther king jr day) where he apoligized for voting against making this historic date a holiday.
