I saw Bill Clinton stumping for Hillary Clinton today. Once he arrived - two and a half hours late - he gave a quite persuasive speech. The healthcare and the 'No Child Left Behind Act' admendments were in particular quite shiny. And recognizing that corn is a poor source of bio-fuel, and farming waste would be a better source ( like the corn stocks from the corn we already grow. )

Though I'm still probably voting for Obama, but now I just really, really, really want a Obama/Clinton ticket. I think they'd make a good political partnership as their ideologies are the same, but their methods of getting their ideologies accomplished are dissimilar and complementary.

I mean, when you vote the same way 95% of the time, it's pretty damm hard to see where those differences are. And when you co-sponsor the majority of each other's bills. Ect.

AND I just got my new DVD/CD burner, and I'm about to install it. Hopefully everything will go well - it's not like I can break the one that's in Leo already any more than it already is.

I'm not sure if Clinton really has a good shot at winning the primary, but I'd love that ticket. It'd also combine the voter bases! But if Clinton does win word is that a lot of Obama's voter base wouldn't go to her. Which means they'd probably just not vote, or vote independant.

Hopefully just not vote...

A lot of people I've talked to have said if Clinton doesn't win the nomination, their voting for McCain.

Which would not be a disaster, but he's definatly my third choice in all of this.

I dunno. I definitely a combo ticket would be cool, and I totally agree that their stances on things are, like, 95% the same. I said before that if Clinton won, I'd vote McCain, but now I'm starting to think Clinton wouldn't be so bad. Then again, I think I'm getting sick of politics, so I'll go for pretty much anything XD

Yeah. The only reason why I'm still thinking about it at this juncture is that I have to fill out my absentee ballet soon.

Then I'm not even going to look at politics until the Democratic convention. = )
