Posted February 5th, 2008 at 2:30PMI’ve heard a lot of talk about today being a national referendum because of the whopping 24 states with primaries held today. But it’s not. The primary season has been going strong for months, and the field of candidates on both sides of the aisle has narrowed considerably since things started. Today is sort of interesting in that every candidate has had to pick and choose their battles; nobody will be winning all of them today. But just like a national referendum, today reemphasizes the importance of money in the political cycle, as TV ads stand in for candidates campaigning halfway across the country.
A recorded Hillary message keeps calling us. It would be one thing if it was an actual person making the call, but when a Hillbot calls up and talks to our answering machine, it makes you wonder…
If her machine is calling our machine and asking for its vote, then are the voting machines with no paper trails or means of accountability really recording human votes, or are they deciding election results by how many phone calls they’ve received from each candidate?
Get out and vote if you’re eligible given your criminal history and party affiliation. Unless you’re voting for Hillary. In which case… Well.
