A New Day

Ah... a new day. For the next little while the pundits have Iowa results to chew on, instead of their own words over and over again. I thought Ed's head might explode yesterday as each and every newscast (even the local New York station's) "explained how these very complex Iowa caucuses work". (Did you know that if you don't get 15% for your candidate here (point at desk), then horse trading begins and you have to walk here (point at desk) or there (point at other desk).)

As for the results, well, it's early. Both Huckabee and Obama are likeable guys, with no international experience. Perfect, we haven't had one of those be president in a long time.

I must admit, part of me wants this to be confusing and undecisive until the National Conventions. That would be fun. And it would serve the Republicans and the Democrats right for totally screwing up the nomination process (we are starting BEFORE not on ly the SuperBowl, but the College Football BCS title game - what the hell?).

I used to be annoyed the nominations ruined the Acadamy Award season (being from LA - guess what was more important to me), but I see now the logic of the process. Between football season end and baseball season starts - primary season.

Its Republican Primary Season, no its Democratic Primary Season, no..

No, it's annoyed voter season.
