US Prez 2008

I just finished reading an article about women voters, and though I agreed with many of the premises, it also seemed to ring untrue in other ways. (I'll post a link later; don't want to influence your voting.)

So, a poll! The results are locked, so you can be honest with your answers without worrying about becoming a social outcast for your choice. I'll post anonymous results early in the week.
[Poll #1205282]
Thanks!

You didn't give me the option of 'None of the Above'.

I'm presuming you want only women to answer this, since you spoke of women voters?

I frankly got pretty disgusted by Hillary's campaign, and even wrote to tell them so. As a white woman of a certain age, I was "supposed" to be a Hillary supporter, but I wasn't. And I resent the implications that if I didn't support Hillary, I was being unfaithful to my gender, or whatever. I hate the lumping of (white) women voters as a block as I do lumping any other grouping of people into a homogeneous whole.

I really wanted to like Hillary. Really. But she didn't come across as "genuine", and she began to sound like politics as usual.

This time I support Obama, not as the "at least it's not ..." choice, but because he's my first choice out of anyone I could think of as a candidate.
