She's such a girl

It would make me happy far beyond my ability to express my happiness if the guy they're looking for in NYC turned out to be a Tea Party member. And considering the fact that he's white, I figure my chances are greater than zero. :)

(Yes, I know the Taliban has claimed responsibility, but the FBI has already dismissed their claim.)

Given the incredibly virulent anti-Hillary attitude at DailyKos during the primaries and election, I never thought I'd see a post like this there. However, take a look:

I think today's front page headline from Le Monde says it all, don't you? ;)

I went over to my parents' house last night to continue taking stuff back to my place and I got talked into staying for dinner. During dinner, my mother mentioned that she had filled in her absentee ballot yesterday. With a bit of trepidation (she had mentioned voting for McCain a couple of times in the last few weeks), I asked if she wanted to tell me who she voted for. "Of course," she said smiling, "I really couldn't bring myself to vote for either of those two, so I wrote in someone." I was a bit surprised by that and asked her who it was. It was her turn to look surprised. "You mean you don't know? I thought you knew me better than that." And then she smiled the biggest smile I've seen on her face in ages. "I voted for Hillary Clinton."
