Why I support Obama over Clinton

The results from Super Tuesday aren't final yet, but things are looking good for Barack. Obviously it's a very close race with Clinton, but Obama did win more states and is claiming to have won more delegates overall.

Here are two big reasons why I support Obama over Hillary:

- The war in Iraq. Hillary is not going to end it. She voted for it, but now she says she opposes it. However, she's received more financial backing from the defense industry than any other candidate...including Republicans.

- Obama not only represents change, but has the ability to bring it about. He excites people. Motivated people will translate into action. In addition to the Democrat base, he will do well with the independent vote and even some moderate Republicans. I cannot possibly imagine any Republicans voting for Clinton in the general election...they all hate her way too much. On top of that, I think Clinton supporters will vote for Obama if he is the nominee, but not necessarily the other way around.
