This stop in Idaho would mean "closeted" Democrats might come out to unite in the historically Republican state and create the needed momentum to get Obama as the chosen Democratic nominee for Idaho.

  • The distinction between Obama and Clinton cannot be sharper these days.

    As I peruse the many editorials, news articles, political and news websites, this is what I find:

    When Clinton is being discussed, all the talk is about their internal politics, Bill's legacy, the problematic specter of a "Co-Presidency", and of their below-the-belt tactics, etc.

    When Obama is being discussed, the focus shifts to the American people, the citizens of the United States, and what his candidacy means for the history of our country. There is frequent mention of how citizens form all walks of life, age, race, and social class are inspired towards action by Obama's message and what it means for the direction of our country.

    For me, the decision of who to support is a no-brainer.

    American politics should be, simply, about the people. And politicians ought to be public servants who work honestly on our behalf.

    But the greatest of politicians do something else: they spur us on to reach for something greater than ourselves, a higher purpose.

    This election should never, ever be about the self-serving 'legacy' (whatever it has been, is, is not, or will not be) of the Clintons or their internal affairs.

    To the contrary, Obama shows a mirror to the people in which they can see their greatest hopes, their greatest possibilities, and that we can reach for what know is possible.

    And that, is what we need right now, more than anything.
