I am drawn to Obama in a way that I could never be drawn to Hillary. I think its important to put a young, energetic president into the White House - they certainly have a challenging job ahead of them. I think people support Hillary because they're nostalgic for the prosperity many experienced during the Bill Clinton administration; however the candidate most similar to Bill Clinton in 1992 is Obama, not Hillary. As much as I believe a woman could be president, I don't think Hillary is the girl for the job. I don't trust her any further than I could throw her.

I believe Obama comes across as someone who will "walk the walk." There is a deceiving quality to Clinton that puts me off.

I like Obama, but I admit I like him for intangible (and some might say superficial) reasons: his charisma, personality and communication style.

I find it really hard to vote for anyone if at all when I can't get behind what the candidate stands for. With that said, there is a good chance I will be voting this year.

As much as I'd love to see a woman in office, she's already BEEN in office (in my opinion). And there's a reason why her campaign people have had to work so hard to make her seem more personable, less bitchy. I have family in government who have worked closely with the Clintons and have said they're terrible people, and that, in reality, Hillary is every bit the bitch that you would imagine. I know she can be charming. And I can't say that I wouldn't want my president to be a bit of a bitch. But something about this Bill-Hillary political alliance (as it's always clearly been about the politics and not a real marriage) leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Hard to put a finger on, but it's just not quite right. Plus, according to this - http://www.votechooser.com/ - Obama's my man. Not because of all the media attention or anything, but the issues I care about, he seems to be more in line with what I want for myself and my country.

Get with it mannnnnn. Wed, 06 Feb 2008 11:39:42 -0500 http://www.indy.com/posts/4490#comment_13227 http://www.indy.com/posts/4490#comment_13227 Matt.Gonzales Excellent. Seriously: What about Clinton so offends you? On what points does she fail where Obama succeeds?

Obama rules! Voting for Hilary is like voting for the devil. If you like the devil you should vote for Hilary! If you want to see the prince of darkness run this great country then vote for Hilary! She's awesome. Just look at her. Doesn't that face just say, "trust me. i'll make everything better."? Obama's like, "seriously, this b is whack!"
