I'm not rationalizing, Fantasma. I'm following my conscience. I'm willing to give Obama a chance to live up to his rhetoric. And that's the difference between him and Hillary for me. I'm willing to let Obama live up to his rhetoric because, for the most part, I like his rhetoric. What has changed for me so that I can say that now, where I couldn't before, is that I am hearing things from him now that I didn't before, and I am learning things about his background that I like and didn't know before. I don't like everything about him or his rhetoric, but enough to pass my threshold of acceptability.

I don't want to give Hillary a chance to live up to her rhetoric because for the most part, I don't like her rhetoric. And I don't like her history.
