		<description><![CDATA[I debated whether or not to write about this since I normally don&#8217;t blog in-depth about political topics. Originally, I wasn&#8217;t going to watch the inauguration. I had never watched one before; why would I start now? However, something in me said it was an inauguration I needed to watch. It was going to be such a [...]]]></description>

That&#8217;s almost as many votes that were cast in the 2004 US presidential election. According to Wikipedia, 122,267,553 votes were cast for president. On another note, it&#8217;s now obvious who the judges and producers want to win this year. Archuleta sang [...]]]></description>
