My recommend link doesn't seem to be working either, but thanks very much for this post. I am also kind of weirded out by the sense of cultish adoration towards Obama from some of my friends.

It will take me a couple of days to think clearly about what comes next. I'm really bummed about this.

Neither of the other candidates has my full interest, though I would definitely support either in the general. But I'm not sure I'll bother attending the Colorado caucuses next week, since I don't like one over the other enough to bother.

I was listening to Larry Johnson talking on the Ed Schultz show last week, and he said he didn't think the problem was with data-mining. He believed that the Administration wanted to get warrants based on info taken from torture victims in those foreign prisons we're running. I haven't seen Johnson post anything about this on his blog yet, but it might be worthwhile asking him to write up his thoughts. I know he writes for TPMCafe sometimes.

I'm very proud of my state for putting the good of our community ahead of ideology.
