This weekend at St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Walla Walla, Wash., they will be holding a "U2charist" service: traditional hymns will be replaced with songs by the band U2. U2charist services have been popping up in Christian communities in the last few years, enough to be called a movement. Weekend America speaks with a rector of a church who has been called the mother of the U2charist movement.

How many images of Barack Obama and John McCain have we each seen in the last month? How many sound bites have we heard from them? Hundreds? Thousands? Politics aside, this has got to do some strange things to our brains. It has to affect our sub-conscious on some basic level. So we want to know, Are you dreaming about the candidates? Has Obama or McCain or Biden or Palin crept into your R.E.M. State? Maybe in a toga? Or scuba gear?
Send us stories of your recent political dreams.
