Obama wins women's vote
CNN: January 3, 2008
Schneider: Obama wins the woman vote

Hillary Clinton has largely courted female voters as she battles to become the first woman president. But in what is bad news for Clinton, exit polling shows Obama beat the New York senator 35 percent to 30 percent among women caucus goers.

Clinton only won among women in the 60 years-old and over demographic. 43 percent of those women voters went for Clinton, compared to 26 percent for Edwards and 19 percent for Obama. But the Illinois Democrat won among women in every other age demographic.

1. That's reality. Obama is the future. Hillary belongs to the past.

...As much as I don't like Hillary, I hate cheap shots more. Care to elaborate?

4. You'd have to be watching CNN or MSNBC tonight...


They went into length about how the results showed how desperately voters want a change from the Dynasty of the Bush > Clinton > Bush > Clinton > Bush era.

5. So elect someone because you don't like the other candidates?
What are we now, Republicans? Do you have another answer?

8. Sorry, that doesn't do it for me...
...These lil' one-liners and "inspirational" speeches aren't what I look for in a President. Give me some credentials.
