Howard Wolfson has a good piece in today's Post.

He explains how he, a devoted Clinton supporter, now understands Obama's appeal and is almost excited about him.

The "almost" is what makes the piece so good. Wolfson does not pretend to have fallen in love with Obama. Clearly his heart was broken by Hillary's defeat and it's still too early for him to ignore the hurt and embrace Obama with intensity.

He says as much. He also says that during the heat of the campaign, he never really looked at Obama. But now he has and he sees that the guy is special. He is almost excited by him.

It really is worth reading because it reminds those of us who have been crazy about Obama from the beginning that those Democrats who were on the other side may need some time to become enthusiasts and that, for now, simply being an Obama-Biden supporter is enough.

If Hillary had been nominated, I'd be just where Howard is. Biting my lip, a little sad, but supporting the ticket and marveling at her great acceptance speech.

Anyway, take a look. A good Democrat has come home.
