					<description>I note that Mike Henry, of the '05 Kaine campaign, has resigned  from the Clinton team.

Good, I guess.

Also note that Obama had a rally in Boise, Idaho, my home state, that attracted 16,000 people. I don't thnk there are 16,000 Democrats in Idaho.

This guy has got something that people aspire to. He brings out our own hope.</description>

					<description>Brian, a politician who can bring 20,000 people to rallys in February is a phenominal thing.  That enthusiasm means we have a once in a lifetime opportunity to finally register all those that feel left behind, and we Democrats will regret it if we pass it up.  I hope you'll vote for Obama tomorrow.  After all, when have Tim Kaine, Rick Boucher, and I steered you wrong? Greg Kallen</description>

					<description>They are both good and realistically the difference between their platforms is not that large. Actually, there isn't terribly much difference between what all three of them want for the country.

But between Hillary and Obama, if in your mind both are equal, I would think about the congressional candidates on the ballots this year across the country.  Who brings us more victories in Congress in 2008 and beyond?  Who helps us keep the new and vulnerable freshman Democrats in swing districts in office this year?  Most of all, who will expand the Party?  And who will inspire new Democratic activists who will bring us victories in the future?  

All things being equal, I'd figure out who you think that candidate is and vote for him or her.</description>
