I surely don't want Obama either tho... If only our girl could run on a "Independent ticket".. Wouldn't that be nice? LOL
I disagree with not voting for Obama because he is not Hillary. IMO, if you don't want four more years of W, then you must vote for Obama even if you live in a state like Texas that is likely to go R. I think all bets are off on R states this year because Obama's race will play a huge factor. Also, I think winning the popular vote is a good, though relatively meaningless, thing to do. If enough voters decline to vote based on the thought that if their vote counted, they would bite the bullet and vote for Obama, don't vote, it could enhance the R's chances. So, I accept that Hillary was defeated and that Obama will be the nominee. So, for me, the most important thing is to prevent McCain, even though I must swallow my pride to do so.
