Whew!

Looks like Hillary will be third after Obama and Edwards. I wish that Edwards had come in first (or Dodd, who's dropping out, or Kuchinich), but it's a relief that Hillary won't be proceeding directly to a coronation. I still fear that she may end up as the nominee (in which case I will not be voting Democratic), but at least she isn't having it all her way so far.

And Huckabee beat Romney - Romney being, in my book, the most vile of the entire Republican pack. Whew!

Now I can sleep. I'll try to do some non-political posts later.

Guiliani is my most vile, but Romney is a close second. I was a Dodd fan, myself, but I am happy that Obama took steam, New Hampshire will really be the test.

I'm not terribly displeased with the results; it's amusing that Clinton ended up in third (although only barely) and Romney only getting second after spending way the heck more than Hucklebee. Clinton is the Establishment Candidate it appears which could help her tremendously but she pretty much has to win New Hampshire. So does Romney, actually; if he loses NH he might as well pack it in but maybe he's willing to blow a lot more of his own money to ride this out to the end.

Almost certainly this will all be over next month, and then comes the third party candidates. Are we going to see Mayor Bloomberg on the Lame Bipartisan Party ticket, and Ron Paul on the Libertarian ticket, and Judge Moore (the Ten Commandments Idol guy) on the Constitution Party ticket? Or will we have a massive terrorist attack in October allowing Bush to declare martial law and void the elections?

Have you heard Huckabee talk? The man is PURE.HYPNOTIC.EVIL.

Even I was sitting there, nodding my head, "yeah, he sounds like a great guy- OHMIGOD HE'S A SNAKE CHARMER ARRRRGGGHHHH!!!"

If either he or Romney wins the nationals, I am genuinely moving away from this country, no iffs, ands, or buts.
