Hi Nancy I'm a NY'er too and a huge Obama supporter, you made me smile to see another NY woman speaking wonderfully abut obama.
Thanks, ts -- I agree with Sen. Obama that we need a new kind of politics. Certainly Hillary represents the old guard and a return to the triangulating days of Clinton #1, even if she is a woman! As an independent I won't be able to vote in the primary here in NY. In fact, it would be great if we had open primaries here!
