During the returns last night I got two amazing phone calls from friends -- one who "was" a diehard Kucinich supporter and the other who is a FORMER Barack Obama supporter. They called to tell me they're casting their votes for Hillary Clinton.
The reasons are even more amazing.
My 'Kucinich' friend said she had been leaning toward Obama but changed her mind for Clinton when she discovered that he has voted to authorize continued funding for the Iraq War. She's mad as hell at Obama for being dishonest and disingenuous about his anti-war 'stance'.
My 'former Obama supporter' friend decided to support Hillary because she is "goddamned sick and tired of him getting a pass from the media" and their "glorification of his candidacy."
Hope springs eternal!
Hillary, Hillary, she's my woman!!
