(Ray Charles, Moonlight in Vermont)
Lot of drama going on right now with the Texas and Ohio primaries. Let's hope Obama pulls ahead in Texas, his lead right now has slimmed considerably. It's great that the race is so close between Obama and Clinton, because it's definitely drumming up more interest in the elections, but with McCain having already wrapped up the Republican nomination, the Democratic Party is going to have a lot of catching up to do, no matter who comes out ahead. But, like I said, let's hope it's Obama.
Anyway, if there's a bright spot in tonight's hotly contested elections, it's got to be this: according to The New York Times,
7:55 p.m. Oh, Vermont! The Associated Press also reports that voters in two Vermont towns approved symbolic measures Tuesday calling for the indictment of President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney for what they consider violations of the Constitution. The measures seek to have police arrest Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheney if they ever visit Brattleboro or nearby Marlboro.
Not sure of the likelihood that either will be cruising downtown Brat anytime soon, but now you know where the Green Mountaineers are coming from.
That is pretty awesome, Vermont. In addition to Phish and Ben & Jerry's, you've got some pretty funny lawmakers.
