Barack Obama wins the Democratic presidential nomination
Historic, yes. Impressive, for sure. It really IS something else...and at any other time, i'd be ecstatic. But i'm not. I'm beyond aggravated. Oh, look, Hillary Clinton wins the South Dakota primary tonight! To the bitter end, supreme eye-rolling irony. I can't quite process the endless points I wanna make...i'm too distracted by the dizzying historic political things happening tonight. Not to mention too tired.
*Actually, i'll say one thing...only because I just heard Jeffrey Toobin on CNN say the same thing I was thinking. The speech McCain just gave -- on this historic night, when he should be coming out FIGHTING and showing how VITAL and CLUED-IN he is -- was FUCKING AWFUL. Like breathtakingly awful. On so many levels. Like, seriously, if the media ran with this, this speech could singlehandedly be The Point he lost the election. He looked like an old man lost on the highway. His entire team should be fired. What was with the pathetic turnout and weak applause? Appalachia school board meetings are more raucous. HORRIBLE. HOLY FUCKING SHIT. And, for the record, I thought he sucked on SNL last month, too...but I've heard no one else say this.
But I wanna end with this...I'M STILL SMUG. I'm gonna sit back and watch everything unfold...and at SOME point -- no matter how long it takes, how many YEARS maybe, and i'm not even sure about WHAT yet -- but i'm gonna say I TOLD YOU SO about the ramifications of this election. CHANGE!
