I wasn’t going to talk about politics, but this is ridiculous.
Last night’s Democratic primary in Pennsylvania failed to resolve anything. The horse race will continue, and the media will cover every second of it.
I won’t be watching. My state’s primary took place on Super Tuesday; I’ve cast my vote. And now the campaign has degenerated into pettiness and sniping. So much hate is coming from supporters of two candidates who are far more alike than not. I don’t wish to encourage the mainstream media giving more coverage to what Obama ate for breakfast than to global warming or Darfur. Also, I have my sanity to consider.
Democrats: it’s one thing to be passionate about your candidate, but if we all combine that passion with a desire for peace - not just, you know, peace somewhere out there in the world, but wherever we can practice it - I think the next few months will go much better for us, and we’ll come out stronger at the end.
The candidates might even start talking about actual issues again.
