That is beautiful, Michelle. Thanks for posting. Here's my take today:

Freedom to hope is a revolutionary act.

Oooh, he's right here in CT! Hartford. Colds and kids meant we couldn't go. Vote tomorrow! (If you're registered as a D or an R)

I still love that, but I do have friends who are wary. I do love him (and I voted for him on moveon.org), but does everyone *really* believe he can do the job? Sorry, not to start a debate here, you don't have to respond. Just pondering that today. Back here where we still don't get to vote yet.

Jess,

I guess it depends on what you think the job is.

I'm of the school of throw the whole lot out and start over.

I believe he isn't hated by the republicans as vehemently as the other candidate is, which might allow him to "do the job" more efficiently.

I also believe he is sincere.

Lack of experience is sometimes a good thing, if it is accompanied by intelligence and integrity.

I would love to see a woman president but Hilary does not get my vote just because she is a woman. I see every move she makes as calculated. Every word a script.

As an unnamed friend said to me recently,

"I'm tired of the Bush/Clinton dynasty."

I've seen that video before. I liked it then, and I like it now. I'm ready for a change; but is America? Most people like the status quo; change is frightening.
