Hillary Clinton is my homegirl


I've wavered between Hill and Obama. And I like Edwards a lot because he started his campaign in New Orleans, to remind the rest of the nation that the Gulf Coast -- my home region -- is still in ruins more than 2 years after Katrina. But Obama needs to come up with some specifics. Charisma is a wonderful thing, but it takes more than charisma and an Oprah endorsement to get my vote. Oprah has been recommending bad women's fiction to me for years. Why should I listen to her about a presidential candidate? As for John Edwards, enough already with the labor Democrat schtick. The last time that worked was when John Travolta fit into his white disco suit. Come on, John Edwards, get with the times.
Hill can get us out of the mess Dubya has left the country in. Yeah, she gave Socks the cat away when she no longer needed him to put some warm and fuzzy on her image. But she's tough enough to do what it takes to change the course this country is on.
Plus, I'd love for the first president my 6-year-old daughter remembers to be a woman president.
