Could It Be?

One of my goals for the new year (along with my fellow blogger Thoughts on Paper) is to volunteer at a presidential candidate's local office. If nothing else to learn a little more of the political process. Initially I said it wouldn't matter the candidate as long as the experience was fulfilling. Over time that too has changed. In watching the news last night and this morning I see presidential hopeful Barack Obama's performance in Iowa and it made me wonder; Could he become president? His showing last night was impressive and for me surprising. While I would like to see him become president, I keep thinking his lack of experience will hinder his progress. Despite that, I wish him well and want to see him succeed. I guess if I plan to volunteer in his offices I need to work on my support. Good Luck in New Hampshire, Mr. Obama. Photo courtesy of Reuters
