rebel sparely trio pretentiously …

On the matter of issues, I think that there’s at least one other difference - I don’t think Obama has any interest at all in doing what he’s proposed. His health care proposal is nowhere near as well thought-out as either Clinton’s or Edwards’, for instance. His record in the Senate, such as it is, seems to confirm that suspicion, also.

It’s ironic, to say the least, that Obama styles himself as the “change” candidate. To me, he’s just more of what we’ve been living through.

Speaking of his record, check out what Leslie’s written at No Quarter.

Anyhow, I hope Edwards can go on, because I’m not fond of the idea of Hillary Clinton, and I really don’t want to have to vote for, or vote against, Barack Obama.

His obsession with bipartisanship and unity gives me pause. The nation - and the World, tangentially - needs Change and, frankly, I don’t care if there’s any bipartisanship involved in the process or not. If the Dems need to grind the Repubs into a grimy puddle on the floor to make positive changes, I’m all for it. I don’t care if the evangelicals are happy, nor do I care if Big Oil, Big Pharma, Big Anything is happy about it. The environment, human rights, the economy, poverty, healthcare - these are the things that matter and I don’t give a tinker’s damn how the neocons or Repubs feel; positive change must be enacted before it’s too late.

That said, I was glad to see Obama and Edwards come away with more support than Hillary. She’s better than a Republican, but not so much that I’m willing to throw my support behind her campaign. It will be an interesting couple months, that’s for certain.

What we don’t know is how many Dodd, Kucinich, Biden, and Richardson votes went to Edwards and Obama over Hillary.

Still, it’s a small contest…on to the next…
