30. It is interesting...
I am proud of this country for being a position where a black candidate can get to a point of gloating and over confidence.

And I think you're right at the end of the day -- Hillary should not be underestimated. And I also think overestimation is a problem for any candidate.

It's interesting ...
I have watched over the last year+ as the news media has done nothing but pour on the Hillary Clinton bashing. They have all but given Obama sainthood.

When in History has the "revolution/change" candidate been supported by the news media? Doesn't that go against our conspiracy theories about MSM? I'm not sure.

Perhaps Obama is the great hope for this country and perhaps he does transcend all politics. Maybe he walks on water?

All I can say -- from my personal experience -- is that I am inspired by Hillary and not Barack. I am inspired by what Hillary means to women and I have watched as women, my mother in particular, have broke down and cried as Hillary talked about how she will help the people in this country who have been invisible for too long.
