I'm still alive, don't call the police- yet

Things have been slow recently.

First, I just want to make a brief comment about the long death march that has been the Democratic primaries: it's all but over- Hillary, do yourself a favor, save some face and bow out of the race before the convention. I've read a rumor that Ms. Clinton will retire from politics if she doesn't win the nomination- I've also read that she's gearing up for a potential 2012 bid. I am a reasonable American, registered with the Democratic party. Losing Hillary Clinton is a bad thing- she's not the psuedo-Republican the blog community is making her out to be. But at the same time, Hillary, don't be a sore looser. Retire? Yeah right, don't even joke about that. And gear up for 2012? Is that claim instigating that McCain is a lock for presidency (wouldn't be such a bad thing really if this were true- would probably work well with a democratic congress) if Obama gets the nomination? Don't be so silly, the political age is changing in America- this upcoming election will be one of those milestone elections that will be studied in AP US History classes everywhere. The pendulum is back on the 'liberal' side of the political spectrum now. I love your policies for the most part, but it's this kind of sulking pretention that is turning off voters from you Ms. Clinton! That's all.

Now, other things. Like I've said, things have been slow. I've slowly been sifting through the dregs of the job market now that a lot of kids have come back for the summer. It's not looking pretty. The lesson here? Jump on that summer shit in the winter- don't fuck around until the spring when the semester to make you assume the position (and rape you). Oh well, I guess I'll don the cape of the blue collar woker.

In dim lighting, still,
Greg
