this woman’s work

But I sure love Michelle Obama — the way I loved Hillary when her husband first ran. I hear the Ohio primary is actually going to count this time and I’m waffling. Sometimes I think Hillary would be more effective because of her more deeply entrenched political life and sometimes I think it’ll make her less effective. I’m trying not to vote with my emotions but it’s hard. My heart wants BOTH of them to win. (But I think a Clinton/Obama or Obama/Clinton ticket is a pipe dream — what do you think?) But then I go back to: Who’s most likely to beat McCain? I gotta be practical.

Michelle Obama Solidifies Her Role in the Election - WSJ.com: “My mother raised us not to make decisions on what could go wrong or we’d never go forward.”

Yeah, I like this woman.

Edited to add: You all know how I worship my mother, right? She likes Hillary. She has a strong influence on me. I’m just sayin’.  (Not that I’ve decided who to vote for but the people in the internets vs. my mother? My mom very often wins. I hope to make up my own mind before I’m actually standing in the booth wringing my hands.)
