Obama Wins Iowa Caucus!!!

Yesssss, this looks even more winnable now! The more that I got into Clinton's voting history in the Senate and saw that she's never backed down from voting for more funding for the war, and how deep in the pockets she is of certain shitty lobbyist groups, the more I've finalized my decision to back Obama. I was uncertain for a minute, I'll admit. Good and bad on each of them, and the ultimate issue of will more than 50% of this country vote for a black man, no matter what we'd like to believe about that in this time period. 

I know that 100% of my group would and will vote for a minority (even though I am loathe to use that word, as globally speaking, brown and black people are not the minority, although most people in this country imagine someone one of those colors when they hear that word.), but I know that most people are not like my group, and people are incomprehensible.

But 54% of Obama's supporters tonight were white women. In a majority white State, where 65% of the voters are women, 54% of the voters gave the support to a Black man when both a White Woman and White man were his opposition. This is huge. This is so huge. 

I so hope that Huckabee gets the Republican win. It would be so great to see that unfold!! 

This is more than possible, it's in reach. It could really be a change pop off in our lifetime!! A new day??

I'm holding out hope for a New Day!! Good times. And now, I'm going back to sleep!!
