Yes, we can did.

I'd been doing well with the no-TV thing, but last night I couldn't help watching history in the making, so I did break my evening TV fast and watch CNN as it all unfolded. I seriously want to marry Barack and have all his babies. His speech last night was PERFECT. Incredible.

I have to say I am beyond disappointed with Hillary Clinton. To put it bluntly, she was a RAVING BITCH last night. She had the perfect opportunity to step back and start uniting the party and she did just the opposite. She made yesterday all about her, and what should've been an important day *in history* wound up just being an important day. She should have conceded. She should've been more gracious. Just when I was starting to not hate her, she goes and pulls such an asshole move.

Oooh, perfect opportunity to use yesterday's word-of-the-day: Hillary Clinton is a splenetic bitch. :)

I'm am fucking terrified about the general election at this point. How can anyone support McCain? Are there people out there who still like George Bush? I didn't think so, and since McCain is essentially the same person, I don't understand how anyone could be supporting him. Don't people want change? (If you support McCain or George Bush, no offense... I just don't agree and don't understand.)

I feel like the "dream ticket" of Obama-Clinton would make me feel a lot more comfortable in the general election. I think winning over Clinton supporters is going to be the biggest challenege. There are so many "democrats" out there who would vote for Hillary and then out of spite just not vote or vote for McCain and I just don't understand. They're both excellent candidates and really not all that different in their policies. I mean really the only difference is that Hillary Clinton is a raving bitch with a husband she can't control. Just kidding. Not really. Oh, I'm just so mad and so conflicted!!! I would feel so much more confident about November if they were on a ticket together, but I really feel like it's a step back for Obama and that he'll kind of lose some integrity if he adds her. I think he's in that position for a lot of the VP candidates they're suggesting. So many of them are just going to look like politicking. I dunno, it's too stressful so I'll leave that up to the experts. I just hope that Hillary, VP or no VP, stops being a huge baby and does what's best for the party and brings her supporters on board to help put a democrat back in the White House.

Okay, time to get off the soap box and get to work. I meant to post this all last night but my interwebs were broken, which means I got little to nothing accomplished! Gah. Later, skaterz.
