I like even more how the British say it: Nut-ellaI thought that was how to say it. Of course, I've never had it. It doesn't appeal to me.
Take jobs as they come -- and we'll never be under the heel of nobody ever again. No matter how long the arm of the Alliance might get, we'll just get ourselves a little further.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
What?? I do like Nutella.
I remember. I was waiting for your defense of it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
But David, doesn't Obama fit well into your Elvis theory of Presidential politics?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Why, god, why? Why do I question my ultimate boss on things that I know damn well she knows more about than I do??
I mean, really. Such an ass.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Damn you, Al Gore! Why don't you run?
In my mind, Al is just waiting for the first wave of candidates to burn out so he can step in at the last minute and be the only guy whose dirty laundry hasn't been waved constantly under our collective American nose for the last 18 months.
Obama can be his Veep.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
tommyrot, you might need this: '50s and 60s Automobile promo films.
Ooh - that looks cool!

It's not my theory, but yeah, he does. Though Edwards also has a bit of Elvis in him, and I think he'd probably win the nod.

I love Al Gore. I believe he should have been my president, lo these past seven years, but I don't think he has the proverbial snowball's chance in hell, and he let himself be so mishandled during the 2000 Election, that I really don't think he had the stuff.
And when I say I love Al Gore, I really mean it. I used to have this whole big schtick about Al being bred and groomed for the presidency, only to wake up and find this mutt from Arkansas got the top job. I love him, but he's not a winner, and he has too much baggage.
I don't think Obama's chances are much better, but that's because of his lack of seasoning. He's got something, though -- something pulled from the rubble of what was once bright and shiny about our country, and...I'll shut up, because I'm making him into Barak Sue. Can't you see his violet eyes, from here?

Did I recently hear bad things about Edwards being a womanizer, or was that another of my anxiety dreams (totally possible)?

I'd like this much better than Hilary/Barak.
DAMN, do I ever miss Clinton.
Me, too.
