Finally …
Finally, I sort out the graduation mess. Something is going my way for a change. Obama’s apparent ticket to nomination certainly helped too. I am sure I will cherish the memory of the 2008 election.
HRC said something quite explicit: the hardest working class, white American’s support of Obama is weakening, or something like that. It was pretty upsetting when I first heard of it. But then again, it really helped me to understand HRC a lot better. In a way, she is a politician’s politician. She has a mind that is powerful and clairvoyant. The demographics are so lively and obvious in her mind, she had to say something like that. It must be therapeutic to her: “I don’t know how I can make this any more clearer than what I have been saying all along. Just let me be myself for a moment …” Yeah I had those moments. Actually a lot recently.
Is this still a racist nation? There always have been the first black something: ball player, Justice, movie star, etc. Always a big deal at the inauguration but then the country learned to live with it. If this pattern holds and BO is elected, it is another learning process and we will move on. However, given the success HRC had lately (would Wisconsin still go Obama had its primary took place post-Wright?), I am quietly rationalizing for a McCain presidency.
One thing for sure, Cindy McCain is classy and … oh lala. Really like the picture above. So funny.
