I'll support Obama

Thu Jan 31, 2008 at 05:31:50 AM PDT

I'll keep this short.  

McCain will probably be the Repub. nominee.  Hillary excites the Repub base.  Obama has a better potential than HRC for getting cross-over votes.

The policy differences between Obama and Clinton are minor.  I think Clinton would govern more ably at first, but I think she has less of a chance of ulimately beating McCain.

Since the most important thing is to get a Dem in the White House, this is not a difficult choice -- even though I'm not personally enthusiastic about Obama (or Clinton for that matter). Oviously, the McClurkin incident did not endear him to me.

Either of them could beat Mitt, I think.
