Okay, mini political-rant time. Talk about a 'meh' kinda presidential race. Let's break down the candidates, if you can even call them such.
Republicans:
-Giuliani...where have you gone?
-Huckbee ....Huck-a-who? Who are you?
-McCain...omg, stop running already. you're worse than Ross Perot, with an equal chance of winning, but smaller ears. Seriously, it's getting old now.
-Mitt Romney...Mitt, Mitt, Mitt...I hope you aren't banking on Massachusetts' vote, cause you won't get it. You didn't do jack spit here, buddy, so why are you going to do anything more in the White House? I hope NH puts you in your place and you drop out of the race. I'd vote for Huck-a-who before you!
Democrats
honestly, only a minor improvement here)
-Hillary...Yes, you did a lot of good as Senator for NY. We're close enough to NY to hear all about it on NPR. But you bought a house in NY ONLY so you could be a Senator there, and you became a Senator there ONLY so you could run for president. You know it, everyone else knows it, and frankly I think its a bit cheesey. Like that millionaire guy who moved to VT so he could run against Bernie...and lost. Bernie for President! Sure he's a socialist, but he'll tell it like it is....meh...not impressed with Hillary so far.
-Edwards...I like what he says, but I don't know if he can win. He's not popular like the othertwo dems, and I'd hate to nominate someonewho couldn't beat out the even more meh-republicans
-Obama...I'm all for ideology, and I'm all for change, and such, but dude...say something. Don't just talk. Tell us how you plan on making all these wonderful changes. I hate to make the comparison, but you're sounding to me a lot like Bush and his 'we have a plan for that' broken record phrase. Obama's a great public speaker, but I'd love to hear some specifics from him. Another minus is that Oprah likes him and acts like she'll be his VP. I'm sorry, but the United States of Oprah doesn't ring nice to me, and is a peg against Obama.
Bottom line...I still don't know who I'll vote for ultimately. But I'm not impressed.
How about Gore? Dude got an Oscar, a Nobel prize, and has shown that he has an agenda beyond politics. Can we get a write in campaign going???
