My Folks are voting Clinton in WA on Saturday.

[Flabbergasted]

I hadn't talked to them about it much. The last time I talked to my dad he said he didn't vote in the primaries. I told him that's the only time you have a voice. Not necessarily true, but anyway.

Mom said they were voting for her because Bill did such a good job. She then said she just wanted Bush out of office and still wondered how he got in, in the first place.

When I told her I was supporting Obama she said they would both be good presidents.


BTW I'm in Oregon.

15. If Hillary can keep it close in Seattle, I think she will win

I just hope that Ron Sims (endorsed Senator Clinton), the King County Executive can use his machine to keep Seattle close. I think Hillary can win Kitsap and Pierce. As long as King County is close, Hillary has a chance to win.

[Flabbergasted]

17. I wouldn't be surprised.

8. Do they know that WA has a caucus? They won't be able to walk in and vote

they'll have to stay and participate to be counted.

I guess WA is doing both? Holding a caucus on Saturday and a Primary ten days later on Feb. 19th :shrug:

Which one do your parents plan on doing?

[Colobo]

10. Tell your folks to reconsider. Obama is necessary for the country.

The Clintons had their time.

[Flabbergasted]

13. I'm as likely to change my parents mind as you are.
