I'm a democrat, I supported Hillary until Obama was nominated. It wasn't difficult. It wasn't a matter of seeing the light. I liked both of them, I preferred Hillary by a hair. As soon as Obama was nominated I was thrilled. I figured we were going to have either the 1st black or female candidate and it would be an historic president. When Obama was nominated I put up my Obama sign and volunteered for him.
I didn't see the light. It was a pragmatic decision, as a democrat to support Obama when he was nominated.

I'm pretty sure the move to Obama didn't happen after NH.

I voted for her in my primary and wanted her to be the nominee. I thought she would be but after super Tues I did entertain the thought Obama might win. Bernie so far won a primary. I'll wait until super Tues before I assume he has a good chance to be nominated. If he is nominated, I'll support him.
