I think PA will go for Hilary. My MIL is an avid Hilary supporter as well. Almost everyone I know in PA is. lol

Here's a pic that emphasizes what I said about Hillary and the Latino vote here in Texas. Some people say that hispanics even have pictures of President Clinton in their living rooms like they do La Virgen de Guadalupe. She's making quite a run in South Texas this week. Surprisingly thought, I have been seeing some Latinos endorsing Obama. It may be a close race even here!!

By the way, the reason that some of the Republican states are swing states for the Democrates is that with the Democratic candidates so close, even the delegates from the Republican states are important to the result. I too don't like the super delegate method. That seem sooo unfair to the popular vote.

By the way, because Texas is usually so neglected by the candidates, people are driving halfway across the state to try to see Hillary at one of her events only to be turned away because of the huge crowds. The head of the local democratic party is a friend of mine. He didn't try to go due to work conflicts, but he knows some folks who did who were turned away.

I will be interesting to see what happens when Obama makes his run through here. They are debating here later in the month. I think in Austin, but I'm not sure. Obama has spoken there twice, but it was months ago.

He's not a bad guy if he keeps his pants on, i don't care what anyone says Hilary is getting my vote and the rest of my family are voting for her, cause i can't stand Obama, i believe if he wins were all in trouble ... that's my two cents...

I just wish there was someone worth voting for, I don't trust either one. I think we're headed for disaster no matter who wins.

I wish that there was someone who really stood out as the right one.

I have a good feeling about Obama. I would very much like to see him as President.

Actually, personalities aside, I don't see much difference between Hillary and McCain on the issues. Of course, McCain will probably be more conservative.

I will say that whatever her personality, Hillary has been a good senator for NY.
We have not suffered at all under her watch. She also feels strongly about certain issues that I agree with, such as medical coverage for all.

I don't feel that any of them would be a disaster at all. We're in economic trouble, in a war that should end, but how and when is still uncertain, we're faced with terrorism, the health care issue, the immigrant issue, and what else? Our education system is terrible in urban areas. Some of these, like the financial and terrorism problems are global, some are going to take years to fix, like the inner city schools. I think the values of many of our citizens are horrendous. I do not blame the government for this.

Each of us, like Angie's poem stated, needs to take responsibility for our own environments. I do like what Hillary said...."It takes a village to raise a child."
We need to take care of each other. Our government isn't going to do that anymore.

I loved your post Judy. I also agree with Diana. As for right now...none really stand out as the right one.
