Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I know this is not really surprising, but it bothered my snozing this morning - guy on NPR saying that the evangelical religious right really does not have a candidate to get out and vote FOR on the Republican side since Huckabee won't get the nom. So, their numbers for the election might be way down. BUT if Clinton gets the nom, they will be highly motivated to get out and vote AGAINST a candidate.

Yeah, that scares me a lot. Even if she won (which I still think she would) the effect on down-ticket Democrats would be ugly.

Apropos of nothing... one of the new techniques we've been learning in one of my classes is called "Sweep." I keep wanting to yell it, but none of my students knows anything about curling, so they would just look at me funny. Funnier.

Here's a question that might seem stupid - why do the evangelicals dislike Hillary more than any other Democratic candidate?

Now tagless for your comfort.

Kat, I hope you guys were able to sleep with Noah and that he gets better without a trip to the emergency room.

Allyson, when I was doing flowers for weddings, I registered with the state for tax purposes--they wanted to make sure they collected taxes on any business I did and made money for. I just registered under my social security number with a DBA name. The plus side of that is that I could use that certificate to buy wholesale without paying sales tax at wholesale businesses that catered to retailers. Not sure if this is similar to what the city's trying to get you to do or not.

On edit:

Jars, it's because she's a)a strong woman b) married to Bill Clinton --who they consider a brother to Satan and c)a strong woman.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am not sure whether this is true for a lot of people, but people I know personally think that Hillary "can't control/satisfy her man" and therefore how could she run a country.

The Clintons are seen as Godless and Moraless. The name is like a lightening rod for hate and vitrol

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Um... huh?

Also, what?

So it's the second name as much as the two 'x' chromosomes? I see.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I actually think that a lot of the reason they hate Bill Clinton so much is that he's married to Hillary Clinton, not the other way around. It can actually get kind of scary to listen to -- the way the really serious HRC-haters talk about her is almost exactly the way they talk about Saddam Hussein.
