Primary

I'm kind of disappointed that New Jersey and New York went for The Schoolmarm. I can't believe that people still fall for that phony, insincere "Clinton charm." What is it? Nostalgia for the Clinton years? The "two presidents for the price of one" bullshit? I'm glad it's still a race and that there's still time for people to be repulsed by Clinton, but it would have been nice to have been spared the regular staged crying jags that now seem to be part of the strategy to make her more human (not to mention the more visible presence of Jack Nicholson on the campaign trail; he left a recorded message on my answering machine yesterday).

On the other hand, it was nice to see moderate Republicans stepping up to reject the candidates approved by the fanatics. The fact that McCain makes Limbaugh and Hannity and their ilk nuts is just icing on the cake.
