You've put my discomfort into focus, as usual you cut through the bull to the truth: you've helped me understand why Obama makes me nervous. Christina, thank you for saying what I’ve been feeling. You’ve put my discomfort into focus, as usual you cut through the bull to the truth:

you’ve helped me understand why Obama makes me nervous.

Watch him give his support and delegates to Obama. As I write this, the news media is waiting to broadcast John Edwards’ speech saying he leaving the race for nomination.

But you better be prepared to work hard for Clinton as McCain is on a roll and unfortunately many pundits think that he would be more beatable by Obama than Clinton, as Obama can draws the youth vote which is highly sceptical of Clinton. I wish it wasn't true but we are not out of the woods yet with a possible four more years of Republican rule. I write this before Edwards, my candidate, announces his endorsement and luckily I did not send in my absentee ballot yet.

Clinton is leading in delegates right now. The superdelegates, Democratic members of the House and Senate, along governors and members of the DNC have overwhelmingly come out in favor Sen. Clinton, despite most of them being men. You can check the <a href="http://demconwatch.blogspot.com/2008/01/superdelegate-list.html" rel="nofollow">totals here</a>. Sen.

This morning after my husband listened to the all of the pundits focusing on the endorsements of Obama by the old Democratic white male guard of the Congress, he said, "I guess these guys truly can't endorse a woman for president. They really don't like Hillary because she's a woman." I said, "Of course, because they won't be able to control her. How pathetic is that? She would never be as grateful to them as Obama will be." He really was surprised. He shouldn't be. Older (I stress "older") American men in general have a very difficult time with women in positions of power. Isn’t that the truth?
