We just had the good fortune of watching the democratic debate on CNN between Senator Barack Obama and Senator Hillary Clinton.
Their words and their poise have given me hope for the future of our country and renewed my faith in the power of politics. Thank you, Barack and Hillary, for the respectable manner in which you debated difficult issues and for articulating your visions for this great nation. Finally, something to look forward to.
My favorite moments from the debate:
Senator Clinton, in response to a question about the legacy of presidents in the past 24 years, remarked that it took a Clinton to clean up after the first Bush, and it may take another Clinton to clean up after the second.
Senator Obama, discussing the next steps in the war in Iraq, said that he not only wants to change the policies that surround our foreign affairs and involvement in Iraq, but he also wants to change the mindset of our country that got us into the war in the first place.
Word. I'll take either of you.
