I think it's because we're seeing a female do well in this thing. My mom once said that my kids would see her in the White House. Mom was a huge fan of Bella Abzug years ago and would have loved for it to be that lovely lady in the Oval Office.Suzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01718001074320164888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4585387429822166808.post-47208872870279841782008-01-10T01:08:00.000-05:002008-01-10T01:08:00.000-05:00Well can't say that I agree with your vote - but i...Well can't say that I agree with your vote - but isn't that what is wonderful about America. <BR/><BR/>Chocolat - I honestly believe Obama will be different, in many ways he has been already with the manner in which he has run his primary. In fact, this weekend, I am volunteering to call California voters - from my home in Texas. <BR/><BR/>All the best to AMERICA.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4585387429822166808.post-47188478115952801252008-01-09T14:25:00.000-05:002008-01-09T14:25:00.000-05:00I love the polling feature.

Women, especially working women, just aren't visible on the domestic and international stage. So I'm voting for Hillary. Yeah, she has baggage. She may not win against a Gulliani, but she is tough, strong and a woman. She is the America I'd like to see. And yes, she'll never do what I like (Bill didn't either honestly) but maybe she can balance the budget and eventually get us out of Iraq.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
