I'm going to go ahead and say it... I'm pulling for Hillary. The more I read up on Obama's record versus rhetoric, the more duplicitous the guy becomes. I'll take the "what you see is what you get" candidate over the one who more closely matches my ideal platform, because what good is a matching ideology without matching policy in action? Also, that man is too smart about his words to be able to just deny all the coded sexism in his campaign, and that shit is not cool by me. But hey, I'm probably just voting with my vagina because after all I am a vaginal-American. I hope she can pull this race back, but it's not looking to promising, is it.
Feeling oddly productive and less spirally today. Considering, again, finally seeing a shrink, perhaps because I've written several feverish pages so far on poets as prophets and it smacks of my dad circa-2002, perhaps because these massive shifts in outlook on life are giving me vertigo, perhaps because self-medication is too effective to entirely discount.
