Tonight, Senator Barack Obama surpassed Hillary Clinton in the number of pledged delegates, effectively assuring his nomination as the Democratic nominee for President. I watched his speech from Iowa and cheered as he spoke of his gratitude for the people who have given their time, their money, their support of him: the grandmothers who spent time on the phone calling folks they don't know; people who are having trouble paying their bills who have written checks to his campaign for $5.00; college students who have given their vacations to stuff envelopes.

Obama Interview Could Have Been Better

The best thing about the interview with BlogHer and Senator Obama today, was that it informed me, not about anything new in terms of his political agenda but, it acquainted me with the website. I am glad to find this site, however, I was less than intrigued with the questions submitted for the interview. Not one question was asked of him that hasn't been asked a thousand times in a thousand interviews. To have had 10 minutes of the Senator's precious time was an honor and in my opinion, his time was wasted. It was too predictable. Sorry. I wish I had found you sooner.
