I voted for Senator Clinton. I am in her core demographic: a white 55 year old woman. I plan to vote for Senator Obama in November and I can hardly wait to get my Obama bumper sticker. My vote for Clinton was not an easy decision. I supported Obama since prior to the Iowa caucus. But when it came time to complete my ballot I felt I had to vote for Clinton. When am I likely to have another chance to vote for a woman at this level? I like and respect Sen Clinton enormously even though I really like the promise of change that is Sen. Obama's message. I will have no trouble supporting Senator Obama.
