A Kindred Spirit

This morning I noted a piece on Huffington Post about a Goldwater grandchild voting for Obama.

The name Goldwater still carries weight for many conservatives, both in and out of Arizona - and even though most current Arizona residents haven't been there long enough to remember or understand Barry's impact, much less remember Goldwater's department store where I worked during high school.

My friend eba was kind enough to send me a link to a piece about another Goldwater going Obama.

The last quote made my day:

“Coming from a political family, I had insight into a lot of things,” Goldwater Ross said. Of McCain, she said, “I don’t have respect for him.”

A kindred spirit, on so many levels.
