West Virginia, take me home!

My girl Hillary's won West Virginia by 41%!! Astounding...and yet more than likely too late. Or IS it? I still cling to the belief that truth is stranger than fiction and anything can happen. I won't get too into this now, but I must say, I was genuinely moved by her speech tonight. And I find the idea of her losing the nomination truly depressing. SUCH a chance for history to be made...and I do mean a female president, and again most Americans are fucking up. Blah, blah, Barack's black and that's historic, too...sorry, not as much as being female. But, wait, then there's the chance a white man in his 70s could win. A Republican, too. UGH. There's no scenario except Hillary winning the presidency that won't agitate me greatly. ALTHOUGH...if she's VP, yeah, that'd be cool, too...and potentially comedic and dramatic beyond words. Her tenacity is inspiring. I don't see it as delusion...I see it both as grit and praying for a last-minute miracle. Among other things. No matter what happens, this race itself has been historic, so i'll take comfort in that. Hillary Rodham Clinton will be in history books 500 years from now as a pioneer.
