Here we go...  Well..the conventions are history..time for the presidential nominees to hit the road with their vp's in tow to convince voters why they should be elected.  I just hope we concentrate more on the issues...specifics please!  We've heard the general plans from both men...how bout some real details?  It's funny...both sides claim they want to take the high road by keeping the mud slinging at a minimum...but there's plenty of mud being tossed about by all concerned these days.  I can't wait for the great debates.  Let's just hope the candidates have an opportunity to address real issues instead of fielding questions which mean very little to most voters.  By the way, I think voters are generally very smart.  If adequately informed about the candidates, voters will do the right thing.  If not...they'll have another chance...in four years.

you know as well as me all this propaganda and I'm this and he or she is that will mean absolutely nothing in the end ..this election to me seems more like a sporting event then a political event..never have I seen people on one side or the other like this election...in one way its kind of great to see this country finally really get into an election the sad part is who ever looses will be so delusion ed they will just stay home next time like they always have..but no matter who wins this is history that this country needs to wake itself up..

The OC's my beat for FOX 11 News. But you can catch me covering just about any story, any place, any time. Have news, will travel! I've been doing that here at Fox 11 for 15 years, traveling coast to coast and south of the border. You never know what you might do or where you might end up and your assignment could change from one minute to the next. To me, that's what being a reporter is all about. And it's pretty cool working in an area where I was born and raised. Yep, I'm a native Angeleno and proud of it!! In case you're wondering, Naipo is Hawaiian, the short version of the 21-letter ancestral name, Naipoikamanaihookaahi....
Good luck on the pronunciation.
