Allthough now that John Kerry has endorsed him I may have to vote for Hillary.

Not since the Civil War has a decision divided a house like my endorsement of Barack Obama versus my Mom’s support of Hillary (if there was an Opus Dei of Hillary 2008 – my Mom would be in the leadership). I am going to vote for Obama for several reasons:

1) A woman will never be president.

2) I have a real chance to become a celebrity impersonator if Obama is elected. Tonight Show here I come.

3) Al Gore is not Running. Although I tend to be an issues voter and if Al Gore would run I would vote for him, I think we are at a time in this country where a person of a new background able to infuse people with positivity and give the United States a drastic new face to the world is needed desparately. If George W. Bush had not made a disaster of the US and the world the way he has I don’t think it would be necessary. But he has, so Obama’s background and life are a compelling part of what makes him the right candidate now. And he smokes cigarettes and everyone knows that all the cool kids smoke.

Now, Hillary has made a great point; the last time America voted for the “guy they’d like to have a beer with” we ended up with George W. Bush. But that was a trick question and America should not have fallen for it: George Bush is an evangelical and ex-alcoholic so he would not drink beer, only the blood of Christ or Iraqi children, depending on whether he was having steak or fish.

4) Seriously, what would be a better box office sell: J-L Cauvin as Barack Obama or Rebecca DeMornay as Hillary Clinton? It’s a no-brainer. Obama 2008
