And now so is Hilary.
No doubt Hilary and Barack have the best chances to win the nomination right now. The Hilary announcement was inevitable, but I fear that Barack did so out of a feeling of obligation due to all of the attention he is getting lately. I just hope this massive amount of support carries through to the end and people don’t give up on him when the opposition starts trotting out trivial facts.
And honestly, I don’t think any of the other potentials have much of a chance.
Obama like what!
