    Easily

    Obama is lot more dynamic and exciting than Kerry. He is a great speaker and has a specific policy plan. Long time Democrats are more excited about Obama than any candidate since RFK. He certainly will lead us in a better direction than McCain, the professional ex-P.O.w.

    The big worry of most Democrats right now is whether Hillary & bill are going to be a pains-in-the butt at the convention. Even women I know who voted for her are very disappointed with her. Read the New York times article on her today. When campaigning for Obama she is still talking about herself. It is always all about Hillary. I was ready to move on until I heard her speech last night.

    As far as PUMAs nothing can convince me these people are Democrats. I looked them up in fund raising, and their rhetoric rings of wing-nut. If they really were loyal Democrats, they would not be trying to divide the party.
