WE INTERRUPT THIS HIATUS TO SAY: VOTE OBAMA!


Just in case any former reader of this recently dormant blog happens to stop by tonight, on the eve of Super Tuesday, I've decided to post a confirmation that I will be casting my vote in tomorrow's New York primary for Barack Obama.

I shut down for the last several months to give a junior campaign a little space to do what it needed to do without scrutiny.

I closed my last post with a rhetorical request that someone call me when we have a movement, not just a campaign. I think we're getting close.

I'm still a critical supporter, and I still believe that's something one can be. I've heard Dr. Cornel West describe himself the same way, so I don't feel that I'm in bad company.

Nonetheless, at this very important moment, I'm willing to simplify my message. Vote Obama. That's it.
