I was just coming to post the Obama news! (And I've had the same gut reaction.)

Despite having grown up in Wisconsin, I am now paranoid about ice. Two of the last four time I've fallen on ice, I've managed to break bones.
Oh, Barack Obama, why did you have to do that?
t sigh
I fall a lot. But I never injure myself seriously. For which I'm grateful, but I have no desire to try to continue my streak.
I've always felt he was almost a man without a good time to run. 2008 does seem too soon, but I really can't entertain the idea of a non-Dem winning in 2008. If a Dem does win, and it's not Obama, we're likely looking at 2016, and by then, the country might be hankering for a Repub.
And? I want some hope. I just want some hope. It can get dashed. Whatever. I understand that's a risk with (as connie so aptly puts it) that bitch, hope. But I want some. I'm tired of having none.
I don't want Hilary to run. I know she probably will, and I even like her, but I can't bear even the thought of what the public discourse will be, for the time she's in office. The hate from the opposition will be roughly equal to all the Bush hate + all the Bill Clinton hate, and a good dose of misogyny, besides. I don't want it.
I want some hope.
Flat has new iron, ironing board, hoover, cutlery, pots, pans, bowls, cups, plates, fridge, freezer, oven, sofas, lights, tables, chairs and bed covers & sheets. Is pretty standard for city letting in UK.
Wow, that's so interesting. So different! Even when I moved into a furnished place here (in the US), I had my own sheets and iron.
I want some hope.
That's audacity.

Yeah, I figure that he figured now is his best shot....

The linens might be the most surprising thing of all. Wow. Actually, I'd want my own sheets, because they're sheets. But still. Wow.
