I almost forgot the primaries were on last night. Tony and I were watching Gilmore Girls (I know, I know) and were pretty oblivious to the outside world. After a few episodes I remembered it was a pretty big night and turned on the TV to see the primary results. They were pretty much what I had expected to see. I was a little surprised to see the check mark next to Obama’s name showing him as the presumptive nominee. I smiled and went back to my mind numbing show.
I haven’t heard the full speeches that were given last night by any of the candidates but I have heard clips and have seen plenty of commentary (not that you can really trust commentary). I certainly think the next few days will be interesting. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if HRC takes it to Denver, although I do think that it would be ill advised. When the opportunity for a graceful exit comes along it generally should be taken.
Regardless of what happens it is important to remember that history has been made, just as it would have been made had Hillary won the nomination. A lot of work has to be done to reunite the party and I feel that the biggest thing that should be on the minds of those who are thinking of leaving the party and voting for McCain or not voting at all should be the Supreme Court. We’re talking up to three new appointments in the next presidential term and that carries decades of weight. I hope we can come together and do what’s right.
1. We’re in the movies/ Watching some people move their mouths/ And a religious figure/ Whose not really a religious figure/ Cause he’s an actor
2. It never really mattered too much to me/ That I was just too damn old to MC/ All that really mattered is if your rhymes was ill/ Girl that’s all that really mattered to me
3. Tulip Baroo/ Tulip Baroo/ The magnetic roller-skater wears a bonnet of blue/ Bonnet of blue
4. When you sleep/ Where do your fingers go/ What do your fingers know/ What do your fingers show.
5. Girlfriend/ I’m gonna tell your boyfriend/ Yeah/ Tell him/ Exactly what we’re doing/ Yeah

My God, I hope no one who would have voted for Hillary vots for that Bush-clone in a fit of pique. We need to hang togetehr now more than ever.
Good points.
#4. When You Sleep. Cake.
I suppose I can come over here and demand a sandwich as well. You know what I want on it. :P
I'm so sickened by all of the people who are saying that they're going to go vote for McCain simply because they supported Hillary. They're acting like five year olds who are bitter over not getting their way.
Since I've, you know, dropped off the face of the earth, I'm coming up w/ a list of things to talk to you about so I don't forget anything when I call very soonish. How terrified I am on the Supreme Court will be one of them.
