A Quote from Thursday

Well, you know right now America is in a state of upheaval. Poverty is demoralizing. You can't expect people to have the virtue of purity when they are poor. But we've got this guy out there now who is redefining the nature of politics from the ground up Barack Obama. He's redefining what a politician is, so we'll have to see how things play out. Am I hopeful? Yes, I'm hopeful that things might change. Some things are going to have to.

I am hopeful and also a bit scared because I know what happened in the last 2 elections - both were totally stolen!

what's the junk's take on having barack choose the hill as the vp candidate? would she be an asset? or a hindrance? mouse thinks it's quite a quandary.... some pros but lots of cons (the least being the bill factor and that's coming from someone who actually thought bill was a decent prez but the average joe will go bill as an excuse for their own misogyny)

Mouse - Oh, gosh, maybe I should quote Dylan again and say, "I'm Not There". I'd say it probably is best described as a quandary but at least this weekend's concession had a certain amount of grace.
