Help: I'm voting tomorrow and still undecided

Crossposted at Daily Kos

To all supporters of Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama:

Here's your chance to swing a real undecided voter.

I'm a committed progressive Democrat. I'm a big fan of both of our candidates and am having a hard time choosing one. And I don't think I'm alone. I've heard both candidates' stances on important issues and am left largely agreeing with both, and believing that their differences are fairly minor. I've heard plenty of negative talking points and attacks on both, and I've dismissed most of them and have come to terms with the others. So please don't go negative in the comments below--I think both of our candidates are good choices and nothing you might say is likely to convince me otherwise. That's not to say that each doesn't have strengths and weaknesses: I like Hillary's debating skills and Barack's ability to inspire. Clinton has more experience, Obama seems more genuine.

Bottom line: both would be presidents that I could get behind. I'd like to hear your reasoning on who would be more effective, more successful. Who has what it takes to be a great president, rather than one who is just "good enough."

Here's how you can help me make up my mind:

PA Dem Wins Special Election in GOP Stronghold

From the diaries--Chris

Further evidence that the Philadelphia suburbs are trending blue:  Andrew Dinniman won the special election in the PA 19th Senate District, becoming "the first Democratic state senator from Chester County in memory."  The district is about 53% Republican, 30% Democratic, and 17% independent, but Dinniman prevailed with 56% of the vote over fellow Chester County Commissioner Carol Aichele.
