And what are the reason why it seems like you are not supporting her now?

And to hear her positions now.

And I see that she can express diametrically opposite views with equal zeal and sincerity.

But everyone fell in love with Obama's speechifying. I didn't hear from Obama what I heard from Kucinich. But, of course, I voted for Obama in the general. What choice did I have?

A good friend who went to an Obama rally before the general was swept up in Obama fever. She became an Obama Mama and was quite angry with me for not feeling the same way. I'd say, "Let's see what happens." He did too much wartalk for my taste. Hillary does too much wartalk for my taste.

I can't help but hoping, that Bernie is the real deal.

Until I see him sell out, I'm sticking with Bernie.

I was rooting for Dennis Kucinich, but by the time my state voted it was obvious he had no chance. Though I loved the fact that Obama was against the Iraq invasion, I honestly was convinced HRC had a better chance in the GE and thought I was voting strategically.
