Back to politics...

Why is it that I must be subjected to Alpaca commercials while I'm trying to get my CNN fix? I just want to know how the Democratic primary went in my fantastically wonderful home state, and then I have to listen to drivel about Alpaca farming. Bleh.

In deference to one of my favorite bloggers (who has more readers than 0), I have refrained from commenting on the Democratic race. Since it is now over, I must disagree with my West coast counterpart, and declare my giddiness over Barack Obama's status as the Democratic presidential candidate. I have really desired a presidential candidate that inspires, and then moves this country to greatness.

Watching the Democratic primary has been trying this spring. Going back to my polysci background, seeing the drama has been fascinating. However, it has made me very nervous that the Democratic contest was this heated. Democrats are mobilized by the cluster-bleeping of George Bush. I didn't want an overly heated primary to divide the Dems.

Yes, I am a feminist. I am. Hillary wasn't what I wanted in my first female presidential candidate.

Is Barack perfect? Nope. I'll rant about that another night, though.

Unite, Democrats, unite.

Let's get the red out of the White House, please.

You have someone here reading what you have to say. When I don't have time to call you due to our crazy schedules, this keeps me up to date on what is happening. Don't forget your younger sisiter.... she is still here

I've never had anything against Barack. He just never got me wrapped up in all of his hoopla. Hillary did. However, as I mentioned before, it will just be a matter of time before I defect to him completely. Again, I do like him, and besides, what is my other choice? McCain? Please. Although, isn't Ron Paul still hanging about. :)
