So the last few of my admittedly-few-and-far-between blog posts have been about Barack Obama. I deleted them because I hate repetition in writing. This blog isn't only about politics, even if it is what I've felt moved to write about recently.
The first Obamapost detailed my excitement over him winning Iowa and my humble pleading of Iowa to forgive me for so diligently making fun of it and its Midwestern neighbors from my East Coast Ivory Tower. Go Iowa. The second lauded John Lewis, my local rep and long-time hero of mine, for switching his support to Barack. What took him so long, I don't know.
Well, plenty of other states have fallen suit. There's momentum. Fantastic momentum (excepting dumb Texas, Ohio, and Rhode Island, the new "Midwests" for me).
Just when you thought the train was headed in the right direction...
Barack tosses a huge ol' shovelful of coal into the furnace and the train levitates off of the tracks, turns skywards, Autobots itself a bit, turns into a freakin Millennium Falcon and jumps to lightspeed.
See one of the best speeches ever here: A More Perfect Union
