I’ve made it a policy not to talk politics in my blog. I have strong opinions, but I don’t feel the need to air them here. Nevertheless, the news of Obama securing the democratic nomination for President, months before the convention has even taken place, mind you, has me unsettled.

I have nothing in particular against Obama. I have nothing specific against Clinton. I think either of them would be a damn sight better than McCain, and during the Texas primary I had to really vote with my heart.

But I think all of those people who are Obama supporters and who think Clinton should just “go away,” or should have stopped running, should read

this link from Shakespeare Sister. The writer, another Melissa, has expressed much of what I’ve seen and felt this year.

I shall now return to much cheerier subjects, like the fact that my stomach hurts less today, and the cocktail of antibiotics the size of quarters, vicodin, and anti-nausea pills seems to be working.

Later today, there will be a post about something really amazing. Like swim-cap fashion.
No, really.
