Reply #65: lwcon. The thing that kept coming back to me was this: Obama opposed the War in Iraq. [View All]

I give John Edwards a pass on it now because he says it was his biggest mistake (he co-sponsored the IWR). And I believe that Edwards was sincere about this. John Edwards is a very good man and would make a good president. But he did support the war in Iraq.

Hillary still can't even come around to admit it was wrong.

The war was wrong. Obama spoke out against it knowing he would be running for the U.S. Senate. His speech today seems nearly prophetic.

The War in Iraq has hurt this nation and will continue to hurt us for a generation in blood, in national treasure and in world respect. It was the single greatest military catastrophe in our nation's history.

I certainly can not 'sell' you even though I appreciate your open mind. I kept mine open until yesterday and then I knew what my heart, mind and belly told me: Obama is the one. He's the fresh start for our nation, he has the mind and the wisdom to act on behalf of all Americans.

I can tell you this: since I made my decision, I feel so good in my heart that I made the bold choice for real change in America. President Obama. That makes me proud to be an American in so many, many ways.

Whatever you decide, I admire you for being open minded.
