My other fear about Obama is what they are going to dig up on him. I think it's fair to say they can come up with something.
So far they haven't come up with much at all. He preemptively revealed the cocaine thing - maybe that's the worst of it?

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

I just wrote to my agent to let her other clients know that LA does this. I'm sure it's because there are so many people in LA who fall into a Creative Artist category.
I wouldn't have known about it myself unless I had just seen a conversation about this elsewhere. I'm lucky that it doesn't apply to me or else I'd have to go stand next to you on line.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
The thing is, they'll make up slime. For whoever gets the nom. Secret Muslim, killed Vince Foster, Swiftboat Veterans... they don't need to know anything at all. Facts are stupid things!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Meara, I'm sorry. That blows.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
After last night's MythBusters, where they tested whether or not an airplane on a conveyor belt can take off, (and it did) there are still lots and lots of people who are vehemently arguing the opposite, even after MythBusters showed it happening, and carefully explained why. I'm amazed at the length people can go to deny something they saw with their own eyes.
Vaguely relatedly, I heard a very interesting story on NPR last night. Back in the day, the "loonies" claimed that we could build shields to block out the sun and save us from global warming. Respectable scientist scoffed at this notion, and set out to prove that it couldn't be done. Unfortunately, they couldn't. The discovered that there was some feasibility to the notion, and are now pursuing an avenue of related research.

Poor meara. Twice in the span of a year is very bad.
So far they haven't come up with much at all.
Well, they did find pictures of him when he was in college, and accused him of being cute as a button. Also, there have been rumors he used to be called Barry, although that's only scandalous inasmuch as it would take five of him to equal Barry White.

Oh, and he wanted to be president when he was in kindergarten! (I forget why that was bad. But it was the Clinton campaign that spread that story.)

Fuck, meara. I wish you much magic and also unemployment benefits and a great new job ASAP.
My sentiments exactly.
gah, ita! Blood clots are scary. Dang, I wish you were here and you could talk to, go see, and/or get the good doctoring hook-up from my ER doc best friend.

Yeah, but it won't surprise anybody about Hillary whereas what Obama has going for him is optimism and change. IMO, it would be easier to tarnish his image.
I haven't decided who I'll vote for yet, these are just my concerns. I'm an independent so I usually don't vote in the primaries. But here I can.
