So, another Tuesday, another set of primaries, another sign of how much the Dems have two AWESOME CANDIDATES who our nation will be willing to put their weight behind.

In short: \o/

My problem, however... Dude, when did politics become fandom?

Wherein I compare the Democratic race to Joss Whedon shows )

fandomonium, tv: firefly, rock the vote, national hoh, tv: buffy

DUDE YOU JUST MADE SENSE OF THE ENTIRE ELECTION. Why can't you be one of those political commentator people?

You know, I've often wondered that myself.

Usually it makes sense when I factor in that political commentators can't just lie around wearing pajamas and reading picture books.

I would respect the commentators a whole lot more if they did that. NO SERIOUSLY. Because then when they want to say innane things they can just make fun of each other's pajamas.

...I love you.

Can I link to this? Pretty please?

(For the sake of everyone involved, I am not going to explain how Nielsen ratings, time shifting, cities not getting the WB, and illegal downloading can translate to the political process. YOU ARE TOTALLY WELCOME.)

I am going to be piondering this all day but you are far, far more eloquent than I.

Sure, go for it.

And, hey. I'm glad to give you something to contemplate! *beams*

I emailed the link to a few friends. I am avoiding posting to lj as that I promised myself I'd write about something and I don't WANT to think about it let alone write about it and so---avoidance.

Let me just say if children are our future? We are SO SCREWED!

I mean, think of how many years Seventh Heaven got the highest ratings on the WB. Please do not let that happen to this country.

Were you in a coma for the last 7 years?

I prefer to see it as "willful denial".

It's good to see that you've learned something from "Seventh Heaven".
