bobbi gets all politicalie

oh sarah! i saw your acceptance speech - you're so bold, so fierce, so snotty.

...which is to say, i love you! and lets be friends, please.

BUT




-thanks be given to faye for the forward!
did palin really answer the economic-crisis-topical question posed at the first debate with an (approximate) "at the next soccer game, ask the mom next to you what they think about it. i bet they have some concerns?" she did.
and questions requiring specific answers were thrown back with a (again, wildly approximately): "we're mavericks and we'll do what we need to do to get it done!" point is, tina wasn't much off.
which stems from this wonderful tidbit by my lovely, favorite, tina fey, on snl. ah, the Funny.

-soon-to-be-a-wearer of this T!

political miracle!!!

that is ... that I am writing about it at all!
i don't get into politics much. it's boring. it's annoying.
BUT, yesterday morning on the today show they were talking about hillary's successes in ohio, texas and ... somewhere else (see? me not paying much attention). the interviewers were asking absurd questions. two of which i must mention right here, right now.
-prefacing my below opinion, i'll just say that i'm so on the fence between the 'bama N hill. no one has said it better than janine, yesterday on her myspace: i "love[s] Clinton and Obama equally--but [she's] really happy for Hillary right now because now she gets to wear her "Bitches get stuff done" t-shirt with pride." har har.

now, we all know how i feel about the today show, right? if not, lemme just say - it Sucks! they don't report news, they repeat the same interview questions over and over when they don't get the answer America (they) want, and most of their topics are soooo uninteresting.

Topic #1 - in order to be the democratic nominee, clinton will likely need some super delegate votes, since she is lagging quite a bit behind Obama on the number of his already acquired delegate votes. so ... by obtaining, through influence or encouragement or talent, SD votes would clinton somehow be "cheating" the system?
no no no!
Topic #2 - they questioned Obama on the fact that he didn't win ohio ... blah blah blah ... how does he expect to win a state in a presidential election that he lost 2 days ago?!?!
let me know if i'm way off base, but i'm thinking that no matter who wins the democratic race to become the presidential candidate those that voted for the other aren't sooooo stuck on their candidate that they will either a.) switch-a-roo & go republican, b.) move to canada, nor c.) contemplate either suicides or assassinations. i think the likely outcome, for the most part, will be to vote for the democratic presidential candidate. just the other one. we (us democrats :) score the same in that state either way. for the most part. no???
