Undecided 08

In the San Francisco Chronicle, California Epicenter of Dem's Epic Balloting.   

For Democrats, the difficulties of the choices with the impassioned last-minute entreaties were clearly - even painfully - evident.  It's hard ... a hard decision," said Dr. Lois Parker, a Los Angeles-area educator as she stood at the back of the Brookings AME listening to Bill Clinton's address. She said the former president's message about the future, and his avowals that his wife has the experience and the record to deliver change, "touches my heart, and he's where many of us are at. And it's what we need to hear."

But as to her vote, she sighed, "I'm still wrestling with it." (...)
 

While the tight contest between Clinton and Obama is forcing hard choices on Democrats across the state, that can only be good news for the party, said Bob Mulholland, senior campaign adviser to the California Democratic Party.

 "It's the greatest primary battle we've had in decades, and it's good for the Democratic Party and good for the system," he said. "We'll come out with a nominee that California Democrats can hardly wait to put against the Republicans."

I'm glad he thinks it's good for the party, because it's driving me nuts.  Is this Mulholland any relation to the William Mulholland of Los Angeles Department of Water and Power?  I'd rather contemplate that than who to vote for. 

From Rebecca Traister at Salon is this post title that about sums it up.

Undecided '08: Should I vote for Clinton or Obama? On Super Tuesday, for the first time in my life, I will walk into the voting booth without knowing who to vote for. I blame John Edwards.

I loved that Traister piece. We've been having some pretty long discussions over on m-pyre about our own indecision as well. Open thread tonight while results come in if you want to chime in!
