Politics 101

You know, when I started this blog I told myself, "Self, I'm not going to make this political." I imagine that I've already made it political once or twice already. Well, here I go again.

What is it with the Democrats? The candidate in the delegate lead has been offered the VP slot by the candidate in second place. Well, well, well. To no surprise #1 pretty much declined the offer from #2. Not only does he decline, but he mocks her.

Now another prominent Democrat has suggested that perhaps Mr. Obama has only made as far as he has because his skin color. It seems that this same prominent Democrat has had this problem before.

Now the Democrats face the unenviable task of deciding what to do about the delegates in Michigan and Florida. If they count the delegates in Florida, look out. Who's going to pay for it? Who's going to vote? How is it going to take place? Good questions. Time will tell.

On top of all this, Ralph Nader is in the race again. Yippee!

I thought after the Texas and Ohio primary all of this would be over. Sounds like now it's not even close to being over. But then maybe it is close after Saturday's Wyoming victory for Barack and his Mississippi win yesterday.
