The silver lining is that while it's awful news to lose a family member, it's an excellent source of pity votes. Grandma took one for the team. Go Nana (and RIP)!

I cannot even begin to express my shock and disbelief that nobody made an "October surprise came a little bit late" joke.

So she died- another illegal alien- thank you Obama for highlighting the mess you will introduce if elected.. It is scary to think of Obama as president.

You're an idiot. His grandmother worked on an assembly line while her husband fought in World War II.

Barack Obama's grandmother, whose personality and bearing shaped much of the life of the Democratic presidential contender, has died, Obama announced Monday, one day before the election. Madelyn Payne Dunham was 86.

[...]

But he said he wanted people to know a little about her — that she lived through the Great Depression and World War II, working the latter on a bomber assembly line with a baby at home and a husband serving his country. He said she was humble and plain spoken, one of the "quiet heroes that we have all across America" working hard and hoping to see their children and grandchildren thrive.

[...]

Madelyn Lee Payne was born to Rolla and Leona Payne in October, 1922, in Peru, Kan., but lived much of her childhood in nearby Augusta.
