I'm sure this Obama supporter is very pleased to know that the Obamas have listened loud and clear to those that have urged them to adopt a dog rather than buy.

Here's an excerpt from PETA's blog:

So you can see why we're quite proud of this whole thing and thank everyone who weighed in. We hope that the Obama family really listened to our message, and we hope that Barack, Michelle, and their daughters find a loving mutt who needs a good home.

And you know what? I always wondered if online petitions really work. It seems that in this case they do! According the the Best Friends Animal Society, they're online petition for the Obama's to adopt garnered over 50,000 online signatures!! I cannot wait to find out what kind of dog they get...regardless of who wins the presidential ticket. Hopefully this future Obama dog will be the next first dog (yeah I guess you know my political leanings...heheh!).
