Moseley Braun really impressed me tonight... |
|
To begin with, I am a pretty moderate liberal and I haven't been as focused on the candidates as many of you have been. I still haven't made any decisions on who I will support yet. I watched Hardball tonight with C.M. Braun and she really seemed bright, articulate, knowledgeable and to have many of the same positions that I had. I don't mean to seem crass but I thought she was kinda the token woman on the panel before tonight. But now, I really see that she seems to have what it takes to be a great leader. She seems to be what our nation needs IMO more than many of the "higher-ups" in the polls. I'll keep my eyes and ears open to learn more about them all.

But you'll find a lot of Illinoisans who will disagree.

I like CMB, but lots and lots of my statespeople do not.

And hey, if you vote for her, you could singlehandedly increase he support by thirty percent.

5. I like all of the candidates |
|
and I liked Graham. I don't like Lieberman's politics for the usual reasons, and Edwards just isn't ready for prime time. But most of them present well in public forums.

Do you see her in the running for a major cabinet position if the Democrats win next Fall?
If so, what positions?
