--I work with youth and have been aware of the excitement for Obama for a year or more. He may well be our nominee and there would be an opportunity to change the visible face of government. Symbolism really does count and he seems to be an effective leader.

--The "spoiled bitch" theme is galling. My support comes from following her totally public actions since at least 1990. Hard worker, no frivolity, up and moving at all times, world-wide exposure and contacts. And her work for children and education resonates highly in my family and professional circle. Again, the symbolism of her as president is exciting in itself.

In short, I can see two potential winners well worth the support of Democrats in general. My preference is for the better known HRC.
