Anyone who reads this blog regularly knows I've been a die-hard Hillary Clinton supporter since day one. This was supposed to be her year and I believed. So last night was very emotional for me, but the story of how I got to the floor for her speech is nearly as good as her speech.
I scored a floor credential from Marti Abernathey. She is an Obama delegate and was not interested in seeing the speech. She knew I was and in the interest of unity and friendship, she gave me her credential for the night - but that left a good friend who is also a Hillary supporter (whom I won't name, but most Indiana folks will know) without a floor pass.

Not everyone will like her or think she should have been the nominee, but I wish she had have been nominated.
Still, I'll love this speech and admire her, but vote for Obama. There is no other choice as far as I'm concerned.
I'm sure John McCain's a nice guy, if you're not a woman, someone who wants to end the Iraq and Afghani Wars and doesn't get him pissed atcha. but his ideas are lame and backward-looking and he is simply not the candidate of my best interests.
I didn't say all of my interests. Unless I run there will never be a candidate who will be for all of my interests.
