When I tell people that if I had to pick a Democrat for President, I’d pick Hillary, they don’t get it. Here’s why (from the Hill’s article about tonights SOTU):  “When Bush proclaimed, “Ladies and gentlemen, some may deny the surge is working, but among terrorists there is no doubt,” Clinton sprang to her feet in applause but Obama remained firmly seated. The president’s line divided most of the Democratic audience, with nearly half standing to applaud and the other half sitting in stony silence.”

It’s a critical difference.
