I think if Obama wins tomorrow, he will be a steamroller in South Carolina (Jan. 26). Much was made about his electablility when he won Iowa, which is very white. NH slightly more so. I often say if this state were any more Caucasian it would be translucent. Winning here will let me dare to hope this nation has finally reached a point that it is willing to be led by someone other than a white male of European descent.

And oh by the way — Hillary said this morning she’ll stay in the race even if she loses tomorrow.

Perhaps some of the ingredients are much the same. A long history of the same kind of government. A history of economic mismanagement, and an increasing belief that the establishment no longer cared. A feeling that a new broom really could sweep clean, and an appeal to a younger and entirely new kind of voter.

I feel goosebumps, too, although I really hope that he delivers more than Blair finally did. Or less, if you count Iraq.

I was thinking about Obama’s strong support among young people and that’s something I haven’t seen since Reagan. Cool, indeed.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment, Neath.
