Often times friends and colleagues ask me - why do I want Obama to win so badly. I think to myself, how can I not want Obama to win? For me, the choice is clear.
1. Clinton is far more guarded than Obama - She comes across as a tactical politican who have learned how to survive in politics. On the contrary, Obama is more comfortable taking seemingly unpopular positions.
2. Clinton's experience comes from the republican dominated era of past 20 years or so. The times, when democrats were not comfortable challenging the republican majority - every word was run under the popularity lense before ever spoken out - the legacy of popular positions over-riding the inner convictions. Obama belongs to the more liberal wing of democratic politics - it is not an accident that he was endorsed by Ted Kennedy.
3. Obama stands on his own feet while Hillary's power and experience come from being in the shadow of Bill Clinton.
At the end, I am only hoping that the bitter struggle for presidency does not split the party and the opportunity of a landslide win in 2008.

They are described as "the first radiant battery chargers that radically reduce battery replacement costs while dramatically increasing battery capacity." () With us you have the peace of mind knowing you have a quality battery that can be used time and time again. If you have bought replacement batteries for your drill you know the cost can be crazy. When you're experiencing shorter battery cycles, say 10-15 minutes, it may not yet ideal to order that new battery.
