Which, btw, I was no big fan for during the 2000 primaries. My guy then was Jerry Brown. But at least Clinton had some executive office experience in a state where, unlike Texas, the position actually has some power.
Obama is a cause celeb with the Nintendo generation, but the Nintendo generation never amounts to anything in a general election - ask McGovern about that. I'm sure there were some reasons that Clinton supporters had in the primaries in 2000. But I have *never* heard *any* reason for supporting Obama other than some analog of "he's tan, articulate and a new generation." What little there is of his record to look at is not very appealing, as I've pointed out before.
