Quantity vs. Quality

I’m getting all political again.  But I just can’t stand it when Barack Obama starts saying, “I’ve won contests in more states!”  States like Wyoming.  Idaho.  Alaska.  Utah.  Virginia.  North Dakota.  Nebraska.  Kansas.  Colorado.  Texas (well…half of it).  South Carolina.  Alabama.  Mississippi.  States that haven’t voted for a Republican presidential candidate since 1964.  These aren’t even swing states.  And I’m supposed to believe that since he’s winning here, turning out crowds in record numbers (lest we forget the Republican are also turning out in record numbers), he’ll use these states to help rack up electors to be come president.

I also hate how he tries to move past something by saying words like “bunny rabbits” and “rainbows” and “starshine.”  And then gets upset when someone brings anything up afterwards and he says “Wait, I said ‘bunny rabbits.’  BUNNY RABBITS.  That means, ‘I’ve addressed it.  Get over it.’”

My other favorite is the argument is “Super delegates should vote like the pledged delegates.”  But only when it’s convenient.  My favorite example: Gov. Bill Richardson.  “Super delegates should vote like the pledged delegates.  Like me.”  “But Gov. Richardson, your state went for Clinton.”  “Oh, well.  She only won by half a point.”  Right, and in these days that doesn’t mean anything.

Not that I approve of Hillary’s campaign.  It’s like Obama has a two-month-old Shih Tzu and Hillary has a five-year-old Schnauzer.  Cute, but not the kind of cute everyone runs over to and goo-goos and gaa-gaas over.

People will realize how much a Shih Tzu sheds and what a pain it is to brush it’s hair.  Schnauzers have a bit of an ugly schnoz, though.

Which is why I’ll take my Phil any day.  (Phil is a little Jack Russell terrier, doofus, and miniature greyhound.  But sweet as can be.)
