Pro Choice

When this endless campaign began I was excited about our options for the Democratic nominee. I was proud that our choices included a woman, a Latino and an African-American. I liked that the stage didn't look like an all white country club.

I thought Bill Richardson would be great until I saw him debate. He was scatty Cathy.

I never really cared for John Edwards but I really like his wife.

I have great respect for Senator Biden and could never understand the lack of coverage on him. Had we done what he recommended in Iraq we would be out of the mess we're in now.

I was interested in Senator Dodd.

I was interested in Senator Obama because I really liked his speech at the Democratic convention in 2004 and his stance on Darfur.

Gravel & Kucinich - what can you say?

I wasn't sure about Senator Clinton. I thought she was too divisive.

The endless attacks on Senator Clinton has changed my mind. I have watched her handle more garbage than any other candidate has had chucked at him. She has proved to me that she can more than handle the job as Commander in Chief.

I am not voting for her because she is a woman. Nancy Pelosi is a woman and I cannot abide her. I believe that Senator Clinton is the most capable candidate in the race. We've got huge problems coming down the pike (peak oil) and whoever is our next President is going to have to make tough choices. Voting "present" will not fly.

The more I looked at Senator Obama the less I liked. He has run a dirty campaign. He has stolen speeches from his pal. He has unsavory connections. He went to a racist church for twenty years. He won't debate. His record in the Illinois State Senate is spotty at best. Community Organizer is not a qualification for President. His arrogance is bigger than his resume which is the only thing thinner than him.

The press has fallen in love with Senator Obama and have questioned him less than they did the reasons for the Iraq war.

So, we have been pretty clear on this blog that we do not support Obama.

The pro-Obama supporters come over here and try to hold my uterus above my head as a reason to vote for him should he get the nomination. (Odd visual) What they forget is that being Pro-Choice means that I get to choose whom I vote for and it won't be Obama. They tell me I'm not a Democrat. I was, but the persistent yapping telling me I can't be has forced me to become an Independent. No big tent here.

We're told that Senator Obama can win without us. Let's see him try.
