Primaries
Wednesday, May 7th, 2008Indiana had their primaries today! Or... Yesterday.
Just want to make an observation:
This entire week? The media has been blathering on about how Obama's doing good with these people and how he's doing good with those people and how Clinton is going to have an absolutely horrible time keeping up. You know, sorta what they've been doing the ENTIRE ELECTION. (Way to be unbiased, eh, objective media?) Anyway... The entire week I've been telling my family: "Just watch. When the media says Hillary is doomed, she wins. Just you wait. She'll win Indiana and they'll both still be tied." Well, you know what?
She won Indiana.
I have to admit that I was NOT a crossover voter... But not intentionally! See, I've only voted in a presidential election. This is my first primary, so I didn't know how it worked. With the presidential election, EVERYONE was on the same ballot, so if you wanted to vote Democrat for this office and Republican for that office, you could! I thought that was what it was going to be this time, but it wasn't. They wanted you to tell them which party you were with and they gave you a ballot filled with that party's candidates. I was totally prepared to vote for Hillary to keep the Democrat self-destruction going on, but... I couldn't. So I voted for Mitt Romney, instead. Yeah... I thought he dropped out, but he was on the ballot, and McCain is crap, Huckabee has no idea what he's doing, and Ron Paul's a joke. I couldn't remember anything particularly nasty about Romney, so he got my vote. Won't make a difference, but my conscience is clear. (Still would have been more fulfilling to vote for Hillary.)
Anyway! Just wanted to put that out. I think this whole election is absolutely hilarious. We conservatives don't have to worry about bringing up the typical liberal creepiness, yet... The liberals are doing it to themselves! Best thing for us to do is keep that animosity going. Liberals scream how it's unfair but, uhm... They really should have thought about that before screwing around with OUR primaries. In politics, there's no "set an example" after someone's messed you up. You have to "level the playing field". Setting examples is what you do before someone jumps in and intentionally screws it all up. You brought this on yourselves, you sniveling Democrats. What goes around comes around.
Yeah, I'm done gloating now.
