I've changed my mind

[gaspee]

I want Clinton to win just to watch Tweety's (Chris Mathews) head to explode. He hates her so much that it's almost comical. He needs to seek professional help before he does something stupid.

He hates her almost as much as the right wingers do. Oh, that's right, he might as well be one of them!

((DU disclaimer so I don't get filleted... supporting Edwards in primary and whomever in the general. I'm not anti any candidate - revised to say that unless Obama proves he's not a bigoted anti-gay straight man I am anti him. Don't like it, too bad. He's not supporting someone who says *your* existence is wrong.))

1. As your neighbor I feel compelled to say. . .

that's a damned silly reason to vote for someone.

But Tweety has been most annoyingly salivating over Hillary since the mid terms.

Ughhh.

Where is Sylvester when we need him. . .?

[gaspee]

2. I'm not actually serious

I think it would be really funny though. It's why I can live with the outcome even though I don't prefer it. I'm just hoping she's acting so hawk-like to win, not because she's really that way... though the evidence doesn't point to it.

The person I want to win never wins so I have to get some consolation somewhere. Sigh.

3. Yeah I know the feeling

Here is what I just posted on the Huffington Post. . .time will tell if they accept it or not.

A Scorpio blogger had offered support simplistically based on Sun sign alone.

Most professional astrologers cast a semi hairy eyeball upon birth times on the exact hour, although one out of every person statistically is likely to have one.

In casting charts, every 4 minutes, the earth spins a degree. It's quite amazing we don't fall off really. Thank the "Creatrix for gravity."

The singular upshot of insurance taking over medicine is that we now have more accurate birthtimes due to potential liability, as opposed to the days when care givers put priority on life over clerical work.

Not sure it all too great a trade off for the vast majority, who are not amongst the eccentric astrological fringe.

"Astrology has become the gold standard for superstition and contempt."

If her birthtime is anywhere near accurate, there are some really challenging progressions and transits for her in early '08, in May and early June, and in the two months leading up to the election.

Really challenging in early '09 as well.

A Saturn/ Uranus opposition on election day widely squaring her Uranus and progressed Moon suggest that the electronic voting machines, will yet again be an glaringly mostly unspoken issue.

I just wish the media had not been shoving her down our throats as the presumed nominee since the midterms.

As a 13th generation American, I don't particularly like two families monopolizing the executive branch for more than 20 years in this land formerly lauded for its amazing diversity. Nor do I like the idea of our first female President being one who is masquerading as a hawkish male.

Yet she'd certainly be better than what we've got.

Still I'm hoping for a maverick upstart to enter the ring and surprise us all.

Silly me.

Choosing a candidate by Sun sign alone is sheer idiocy. But a kinship and affinity felt through a close conjunction of Suns is thoroughly understandable.

Glad you are familiar with Jeff. He is a well respected colleague.

Happy Solar Return.
