Barack Obama has announced today that he is forming an exploratory committee for a run for President. While not an official announcement, it is in fact a likely sign that he will decide to run. Barack has posted a video on his website which you can watch here, explaining his choice.
He states that he will spend the next few weeks talking to people and listening to what they have to say, and then will appear in Illinois on February 10th to announce his plans and his vision. Sure as heck sounds like he is in! I have stated before that I am excited to see what Obama has to offer and consider him a top candidate. Once we know what he is up to it will probably force Hillary to enter the race soon.
Also in the news today Bill Richardson says he will announce his intentions before the end of the month.
Update: Here is a link to a great article about the shrewdness of Obama in only announcing his exploratory committee with another announcement about his final decision. For now, I am putting Obama in the running category.
