Hillary

I will totally be on board if Hillary wins this. I have said it before on this blog, we had/have an embarrassment of riches in our candidates. Dodd, Biden, Clinton, Obama, Edwards,... all in my mind stellar candidates.

I like the Clintons.. even adored them.. still like them a great deal. I would be unhappy if she were the nominee, because of Obama, but I would get over it and support her.

Yet, somehow, the clintons of the 90s are different than the Clintons of now. Unfortunately for her, she has failed to inspire. She is supremely competent and amazingly knowledgeable. Its almost sad that she can't win on those merits. She lacks what Bill has.. I can't describe it.. she lacks a certain gravitas, an umph factor that Obama has in droves.
