Your Op-Ed article by Jeanne Kohl-Welles and Linda Mitchell (Sept. 10 issue) was on the mark - well written and stated. I seem to be for everything Sarah Palin is against. As an 85-year-old retiree I will be voting for Obama for the very reasons Pastor Leskovar (Sept. 10 issue) is voting against him.

I especially got a kick out of the line "women voting for McCain would be like chickens voting for Colonel Sanders."
