After much debating, thinking, and reasoning, I have decided that I am going to vote for Hillary Clinton when the election rolls around. I’ve got my reasons…although I don’t feel the need to share them with everyone. It’s my choice, after all. I must say, though, that I always said, “I will NEVER vote for a woman to be president.” I hate the freakin’ cliché, “Never say never”…but I guess it rings true in this case.

I put some serious thought into voting for someone else, but let’s get real. It’s very obvious that either Clinton or Obama are going to win. (From the looks of it, probably Obama.) It’s my opinion that voting for someone other than those two would be wasting a vote. It couldn’t be clearer that it’s down to those two.So, once I came to that realization, I decided to scope each of them out at greater lengths. After doing so, I have made the decision to support Hillary. Although I think she stands less of a chance of winning than Obama does, I am still going to make sure to place my vote for her…just in case.I was adding Hillary on MySpace when I saw a little list of her interests and whatnot. It’s always nice to see the human side of famous people, so I copied it…here it is:

Favorite food to cook: I’m a lousy cook, but I make pretty good soft scrambled eggs.

Desert island necessity: A good book.

Favorite reality TV program: American Idol.

Favorite fitness activity: Speed walking.

Worst habit: Chocolate.

Sleeping-in time: I feel lucky when I can sleep until 7 a.m.

Hidden talent: I love crossword puzzles.

Last music purchase: Carly Simon’s Into White.

Cars you drive: For security reasons, we drive in Secret Service vehicles but the Service lets us use a Ford hybrid when we’re home in New York.

Home task that needs tending: Organizing my closets.

Last work of non-fiction read: Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns Goodwin.

Pets at home:Seamus, our Lab.

Best and worst grades or subjects in school: I always loved history and got good grades, but I never did well at math.

Item that most reminds you of where you came from: Olive burgers from the Pickwick in Chicago.

So there you have it. I must say that I’m happy Democrats are doing so well…I will NEVER vote for a Republican…never ever! Bush ruined the entire party for me.

I also must say that the above are simply my opinions. I don’t ask that you agree with me…all I want is to voice my opinions without being attacked for doing so. May the best (wo)man win!
