"The air is still"

I wonder if after about 650 posts, I've ever had the same title appear twice. I'm sure it's happened a time or two.

The Pennsylvania presidentail primaries were today and it looks like H. Clinton came away the victor. As much as I dislike H. Clinton, I'd almost prefer to see her beat out Obama as the Democratic nominee for two reasons:

1) I think she would be easier to beat in November. I could be wrong about this one... I think a lot more will become more widely publicized about Obama between now and November that could make it difficult for people to vote for him (e.g., his relationship [friendship?] with Bill Ayers, member of a terrorist organization whose book opens "I don't regret setting bombs. I feel we didn't do enough.")

2) Obama scares me. Read #1 starting after the ellipses.

Either way, I agree with classic conservative viewpoints through and through, and I'll be voting McCain -- although he wouldn't have necessarily been my first choice either. In any event, Lisa and I shook hands with McCain a couple of months ago when he was stumping in Michigan. First time I've shaken hands with a Presidential nominee.

Maybe I'll do some thorough research on all these yayhoos and post a more thoughtful WebLog on our potential presidents sometime soon. Probably not, but maybe.

I am voting for Ron Paul. I couldn't have Hillary for president, but I would take Obama over McCain. Living with Parliament has got me all confused!
