Bummer

Obama's grandmother dies one day before the election.


She's gone. But she left us a great gift.

...she left us a great gift.

Amen, hon!

But I can't help feeling so sorry for Obama- these next few days should be about saying farewell and mourning, but there's no way he'll be able to do that.

May the old lady rest in peace...

Yes she did. I'm so glad for his sake that he was able to see her last weekend. I wish she had lived to see her grandson elected President of the United States.

It's sad that she didn't live another week, at least, but we know she saw him nominated, saw him *winning* by most counts, and knew he honored her and remembered her from beginning to end. She knew.
