My thoughts exactly!

Thanks for saying it so well, Idealistic.

Stop whining about the polls, donate, volunteer for the campaign, put your money and your feet where your mouth is!

This will sink McCain in Colorado.

I grew up in southern Colorado, Ken Salazar's district, and you have no idea what a big deal water rights are in the state.
Coloradans fight with each other over water all the time, take each other to court kinda fights, but nothing unites them like telling them that more of "their" water should go to Arizona for golf courses and Vegas for fountains and swimming pools.

This will hurt McCain in New Mexico, too.

Excellent post Hilary!!

Never thought I'd see one of my all time favorite books brought up on TPM in the context of a political campaign, but I think you made a great tie-in about the demonization of women who step outside the culturally acceptable boxes they've been assigned.

Excellent post! Very well expressed.
Count me in. Stay-at-home Mom, white, 41, and an Obama supporter from the first.

Thanks, Astral!

The Tom Hanks clip was smile inducing and Tim Russert as the Heat Miser was nightmare inducing.

I think there's a very strong chance that Obama will take Colorado if he's the Dem. nominee. I'm a Colorado native (as a military spouse who has lived in 7 different places in 12 years, my husband and I still answer "Colorado" when someone asks where we're from).

Nearly everyone I know under 50 in Colorado is an Obama supporter. And that's saying a lot, my brother-in-law is a fundamentalist Southern Baptist from Colorado Springs who told me in January that Coloradans would never vote for a black guy. That opinion lasted until right after the Feb. 5 caucus, and now even he's going to vote for him.

Too Late!! She moved to Timmy's house the day she said that she and McCain had passed the CinC threshold and Obama had only given a speech in 2002. She just hasn't sent out her change of address notices yet.
