Obama wins, for now...

so Obama is going to be the democratic nominee. congratulations to him. i'd have preferred Hilary. at this point its no big deal between them though. i just hope the dems win. i can't see how mccain is anything but a step towards a bleak totalitarian future. bigger guns and more wars, thats the republican way right about now.

as relieved as i was that the battle between hilary and obama is over, i can't help but think maybe it ended too soon. they really were dominating the headlines for a long time now and it did keep mccain out of them. we haven't heard a peep out of him yet. and its going to get ugly. i don't think we can avoid someone playing the race card here. even if its not mccain directly there are plenty of other republican wonk's running around that will. and we're going to hear over and over again how a vote for mccain is a vote for more bush. it'll be interesting to see how GW handels this, he may just disapear from the race altogether except for the big stuff like conventions. that would be good for the republicans, let them drive bush around on this "what will history remember me as" tour they have him on and keep trying to improve his legacy by handing out candy bars in africa.

the next big news flash will be the choices for VP. i think gore is out and i'm not sure if we'll actually see and obama/hilary ticket. we might see and obama/bill clinton ticket first. think about it. slick willy back in the white house at any cost, that should have been the motto for hilary's campain. watch out for bill richardson from NM. he's a solid canidate.
