    when I went to my first caucus to vote for Obama and an elderly couple who sat across from me were voting for Hillary. The LOOK on their faces when they saw how many of us were voting for Obama will always be etched in my mind! It was a shocked look that said we're giving away experience for a WHIM. I also think about what Hillary said about Obama: "He gives good speeches, but..." and thinking about how the last 3 years have gone by watching Obama coddle, enable, and bend over backwards to appease Republicans at OUR expense and to end up where we started - with the racist GOPers hating Obama regardless. Hillary got that lesson they hate anyone who isn't "them" (and so many more lessons) years ago and when Bill was in the WH! When I think about it all, I wish I would have voted for Hillary then at that caucus too. It's my own opinion: I was foolish to throw away experience for a whim that has wasted so much precious time, lessons, and effort and has taken me from hope to near hopelessness.
