Sorry, Slow....I've not been feeling well and apparently the roboblogger has taken over. I'll try to get back to it this week.

This is one of those time that politics get exciting. I'm pulling for Mr Reed because he will put Atlanta on the national stage because he was in the senate. But Ms Norwood will do a great job too. Its a real turning point for Atlanta either way.

A moderately-educated southern Bama white woman versus a Black attorney.

Kasim Reed all the way.
