I was reading a post on Women's Space about Steinem's support of Carol Moseley Braun's run for President of the United States during the 2004 election.

I have been trying to pinpoint what it is about Obama that strikes a chord with me. Many Clinton supporters have accused Obama-ites of not being politically astute and of supporting a candidate based on feel-good rhetoric and not the experience that the candidate brings to the presidency. For me, this does not address the Clintons' past betrayals of my political support.
