Clinton really does know his stuff; he's genial, inspiring but common-sensical, straight-talking, warm, funny...you want to sit down and have a beer with him. Or a mint julep.

The thought of Romney in the White House makes me feel ill -- even with the Atlantic between us as a buffer. -- I know what you mean. As a governor he was relatively liberal and sane, but as a presidential candidate he's contorted himself into something seriously quease-inducing.

I watched the First Lady's speech, and I'd definitely vote for her :) -- You and me and about a million other women! She really is something. Maybe she'll be like Hilary and end up going into politics herself :)
