6. WHen does Santa Clause show up?
This is beginning to remind of xmas when I was a kid. Channle 9 used to da thing where they's have Santa Clause spotters tracking where he was. They'd have all these news guys with footage and stuff. It was really funny as all the kids in neighborhood would call eachother with the latest scoop on where he was.

That's what this is reminding me of.

Cept I ain't getting any games for my Atari or Hoth Han Solo.

18. That's good,. At least leaving Midway, he'll get down to Springfield on time.
If he was leaving from O'Hare, that might be different.

21. It's probably a decoy.
Obama will be secretly flying out of DuPage or Palwaukee in the middle of the night in an unmarked charter.

If I can fly out of O'Hare and avoid all the troubles associated with Midway, I do.

45. Whatever his personal pecadillos, Edwards was spot-on with "Two Americas"...
Which is why I supported him, and don't regret it.

It's not very big, but it's cozy and has a nice fireplace. Obama says he likes it. Says he's gonna do a house party here with my congressman some time in October (Steve Kagen). Here's a pic from my last house party (Oct. 2006):

(L-R) State Assembly (& Iraq War veteran Kelly Parrson, Local Sherriff candidate Wayne Murphy, Congressman Steve Kagen, State Senator Roger Breske). Don't put it past me!

39. Well, I Have Already Been Told By
Kagen's staf that they'd love to do a house party here AGAIN, and he supported Obama a long time ago. We'll see what happens.

Did I mention that I want Obama to pick Wes Clark as his running mate?

43. Clark was my preferred pick from the start
Edited on Fri Aug-22-08 08:10 PM by goodgd_yall
But I thought his truthful statement about McCain's POW experience not qualifying him for President might have put him out of the running. I would be surprised and very pleased if it was Clark.

They said a police cruiser just drove up the driveway. I wonder if the reports are peeking in the windows and going a bit too far.
