Way to bring the drama, New Hampshire. Well done.
And way to rock it, Democrats. I love my party. Let's please remember to play nice and play smart, because it's a long road to the White House.

in_a_tizzy asked why I leaned toward John Edwards, and here's why: he's talking about money and populism and, in my opinion, this is the point in politics right now. Simply put, there are too many poor people voting for Republicans who aren't even remotely interested in making their lives better, and it makes me CRAZY. Edwards is the guy who keeps hitting this message and hitting it hard, and I respond to that.
That said, I really didn't appreciate his comments about Hillary Clinton's "emotional breakdown" I mean, please - yesterday something at work pissed me off and I walked into my boss's office with tears in my eyes and told her I was going home. She patted me and sent me off and THAT, dear friends, is how you have an emotional breakdown over something as trivial as paperwork and perpetually fucked up templates and procedures. Hillary feeling strongly about national service? This is somehow a liability?! And besides that, if Hillary IS the nominee, we just really don't need the Rs playing the weak woman card, and I really really really don't appreciate him tripping over himself to be the first to play it. Not cool, John. This is a man who should listen to the women in his life more; his wife and daughters are right about gay marriage and he really ought to be following their lead more on this Hillary thing, too.
