As you may know, I’m running for the United States Senate in Oregon because I’m really worried about the direction of the country. We face an awe-inspiring quintuple challenge of ending the war, stopping global warming, combating runaway economic inequality, reforming the health care system, and preventing the national debt from soaring out of control. We need to get moving on all of those issues – and we needed to do so yesterday. To meet those challenges, we need political leaders who will be willing to take risks, willing to call for sacrifice, and be able to persuade the American people that their sacrifices will not be in vain.
That’s why I’m voting for Barack Obama.
Before any Clintonistas out there get rabbit, I suggest you read the full statement as Steve has very carefully thought out his choice and in fact has a lot of good stuff to say about Hillary Clinton and some of her policies. Sounds like Steve, like everyone else, has been highly conflicted with the seemingly generous crop of Democratic candidates this election and had a genuine challenge in figuring out who to endorse since Edwards dropped out of the race.
