Something in which to believe
“You’re going to be a complete Obama maniac,” Karol said when I was deciding whether to spend an obscene amount of money to go to a fundraiser for the junior Senator from Illinois.
Gosh, I hope so.
I mean I love Dennis Kucinich…although that he’s got a trophy wife now kinda takes away the quirky little engine that couldness that really sold me on him the last time around, but let’s face it “I did not bankrupt Cleaveland” just doesn’t win elections like it used to.
So, I was in the market for a “VC:” viable candidate.
A woman for President. I chuckled. Another Clinton for President. HAHAHAHAHA… stop it, you’re killing me.
Yet another throwback to the ’04 presidency AND his wife has cancer…uh…President of Hope College in the other America, maybe but not my guy.
Though still hotter than New Orleans in August.
I didn’t want to be the black chick for the half black guy, but then Oprah went and all endorsed him, so what was a sychophant to do?
I entered my credit card numbers on the obamanyc site, kissed dreams of my 2007 World Series of poker championship goodbye, threw on a pair of shoes and headed out to meet the man, the myth and the legend at the Hammerstein ballroom on Friday night.
There was a line which snaked up the avenue.

So, of course, I assumed this could not be the rich people’s line. I walked to the front and very politely asked to be ushered away from the masses and straight to the VIP lounge.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
You’ll see why that’s funny later. For now, however, suffice to say, I was referred to the back of the snake by the index finger of the volunteer at the door.
Ok. Cool. Obama keepin’ it realz.
I noticed that he had the Canadian vote locked up.

1. Elizabeth Kucinich is, in no way, a "trophy wife"...
Edited on Thu Jun-28-07 02:17 PM by Totally Committed
Yes, she's young, and she's beautiful, but she seems to genuinely love the man, and be a real "partner" to him, in every way. She takes away his "little engine that couldness"? Really? Not so sure that's true, but if she does, she surely gives him an unmistakeable "little engine that can really deliverness".


I know this is about only a small aspect of this post, but Kucinich is a damned good man. Some people have nothing better to do than attack things they are afraid of, don't understand, or are in their way. This Party would be 1000% better if we had a dozen candidates of his ilk running instead of the DLC Playbook Brigade.


I felt I had to repsond to this. Just my opinion, but there it is.
