IF ONLY
May 7, 2008
I just had to come back, as I sit and hear (but not listen to) Obama talk about his victory in North Carolina. We have been supporting Hillary Clinton in a big way. Lots of time and money has gone into this, and I don’t know how I’d feel about Obama had he not been against her. I’m a Democrat, never a question about that. As all this unfolds and I know I’ve witnessed a historical event I could not have imagined (it is telling that Firefox’s spell check recognizes her name but not his), my thoughts and my heart go back to if only. If only she had not run against him, if only she could have a turn first, if only (insert random wonky detail from the primaries) had not taken place.
Instincts and desires which oppose the grace of God. Time to grow (yet again).
