How's everybody? Man I'm swamped with classes coming to an end. I'm writing a paper on Blake right now, but I thought I would take a minute and Luke's suggestion and type a bit about the candidates this year. Tell me what you're think and who I should vote for.
Clinton: I've never liked the Clintons. As you might have guessed, I have little patience for those who compromise when I think they should stand on principle; yet I have to hand it to them sometimes, they sneakily manage some wonderful things, like SCHIP for example. Still, NAFTA and the Kyoto failure still looms, as does the disaster that became "Don't ask don't tell." She's also too hawkish on Iran. We are way pass due on a female Prez though... C'mon Hillary, seduce me with some of that old school liberal charm. Whisper single payer health-care again. I so want to love you.
Obama: Ok, anyone who turned Oprah into a citizen has to be good, right? Too moderate for my taste, but could he really get past the Boomer gridlock as the Atlantic article suggests? A Black Prez would also be amazing. C'mon Barack seduce me with edgy policy, any policy.
Edwards: To quote Men at Work, "you speaka my language," but why do I think you're lying?
Biden: You're so smart and funny. Why did you have to be a white man?
Kucinich: I love you but you'll NEVER get elected, even if the UFO endorsed you. PS--your wife! God damn!
Richardson: Strong environmental policy, and the minimum wage for teachers is a great idea, but I HATE having to listen to you. 1...2...3..
Dodd: read Biden (minus the funny)
Ron Paul: When will my leftist friends see you for the evil bastard you really are?
Huckabee: I'm starting to fall for the Fair Tax thing. Am I crazy? He also has the best healthcare plan and a substantial green policy. How are you a Republican? Oh yeah, you don't accept evolution.
