Ready for Super Tuesday?

Geez, I have been one weepy bitch lately. Seriously, I think I have cried about six times in the last two days. Why? There doesn't really seem to be an answer. I'm certainly not feeling sad in any way. Stuff I'm seeing, it's just getting to me.

Like this video. Okay, John Edwards was and is my boy. Now that he's stepped aside, I've had to do some thinking. Because no matter how you slice it something's gotta change in our big picture. I know I can't do that. I can really only look out for me and mine in the close vicinity and hope that good things are going to come out of humanity's collective conciousness. I'm not even trying to break this down into a real politics thing. The more I see, the more I am convinced that party politics is straight bullshit. My co-worker (partner in digital crime) is a total Republican. We took these questionnaires online as to which politician skews closest to our beliefs and his was Mitt Romney. Fucking Mitt Romney?!? I thought he was the antichrist. Then I think that Jim and I agree on a whole lot of stuff and have major similarities in our life philosophies. So what does it mean that he lines up with Mitt Romney and I line up with Mike Gravel (shocking, yes, but apparently true according to glassbooth.org)? It means exactly dick. We are both just taxpaying citizens and Americans and humans, at that.

I already knew Barack had my vote. I heard about this will.i.am video and you could hear my skull-cracking eye roll from a block away. What a bunch of celebrity horseshit. So tonight something linked me to it and I thought, well, why not. It's still a few minutes until Smokin' Aces starts on HBO.

And then I cried like I was my mom or something. (Love ya Mom, but you are a bit of a crier) I could still do without the Scarlett Johansson and Kate Walsh bobble-heads but I found this whole thing to be very moving. That voice asking us to believe that good things are possible still if we demand them. I still don't put all my hope into the idea that this one man is going to be the Kennedy for our generation, because we all know Kennedy was just a myth, and mostly just human like us. And yet, my cynic has gone to bed early tonight folks. You might want to pack yours away before you watch this.
