Time for Something Different

I am an Obama supporter.  I'm not someone who trashes the other candidates.  Look, we all get caught up in the candidates we believe in, but there is no question that anyone in the Democratic field will change our country for the better.

But I'm depressed.  I feel happy for Hillary.  I think she's great.  A strong candidate.  A huge change for the country.  A great potential president.

Still, I'm depressed.  Barack is something different.  A once in a lifetime candidate.  Someone who has the potential to really change the debate.  I think we need that.  Hillary can win the debate.  That is huge.  But she is part of it, she can't change it.

I'm sad that, as I see it, New Hampshire did not vote for the bigger picture.  It was rally behind who was down.  It was vote for change -- vote for the woman. All great reasons.

But this year, it was a lost opportunity for a real change not just in our country, but in our politics.  We still need it.  I hope we get it.

Obama still has a great shot.  Even if he doesn't win, the Dem candidate can make this country much better.  But sadly we will have lost out on an amazing chance to really create a movement.
