Well, we did everything we could. I keep thinking we could have done a little bit more, pushed a little bit harder, but in all truthfulness, I'm proud of the work we did do. And I'm even prouder of my team, which I am honored and humbled to have led. But more than that, I'm proud of Senator Kelly and all the tireless work he's done for our largely ( Read more... )

* Well, Clark and Eirene are getting married, if you haven't heard. Yes, it seems just moments ago, I was chasing him around the yard and forcing him to take a nap. (Or was that just moments ago?) But it seems that despite my best efforts, children do grow up and so too has mine. Though this is probably the first and the last time I'll admit that ( Read more... )

I seem to be doing an awful lot of that lately. Fortunately, I've gotten very good at it or I wouldn't be allowed to do it anymore.

It's funny, when I was young, politics meant very little to me. I grew up among the high society elite of Metropolis - I had a coming out party and everything - and was raised within my father's ever-growing yet ( Read more... )

So, the Get Out the Vote rally was this afternoon and, following a bit of a nervous breakdown I was able to pull myself together and thanks to Perry White's formidable co-hosting abilities, I was able to pull off addressing over 3,000 people live. I really didn't think I had it in me, but the rally was a rousing success.

A certain jealous someone asked about my lunch with Perry White today, so...

If you haven't heard by now, I had my first major press conference today. It was all well and good until my...damaged reproductive system became the main topic of conversation. I handled it as best I could - I can't let the press think I scare easy, and certainly not during my first press conference - but needless to say there were tears the second ( Read more... )

Reporters are a particularly vicious bunch.

Back from New York, and Pepper's party. It was an...interesting experience, to say the least. I laughed, I dressed up, at the behest of Gwen and Will, I even danced (like a normal person and not a prima ballerina!) and somehow managed to avoid the lot of "special" brownies that did the rest of you in. All in all a wonderful weekend, but now it's ( Read more... )
