RIP

Good-bye, Arthur C. Clarke.

Last of the Big Three is gone now - must be having quite a convention where ever they are.

Can this election be over soon, please?

(Please note - I don't want a political argument here. I'm presenting what the election is doing to my marriage.)

I'm tired of arguing with my husband. We pretty much agree on everything politically, but he supports Obama and I am, apparently, the only person on my friendslist who supports Hilary Clinton. (I really do think she'd make a better president, although I wish she had Obama's skill with words.) And this has nothing to do with past or present connections - I made this decision before the New York primary.

Please don't try to convince me to change my views. I'm not exactly going to be holding my nose when I vote for Obama come November, and seriously, the two candidates are NOT so far apart in their views, with Clinton a tad more moderate (like me, as it happens.) However, I'm actually finding some Obama supporters' vehemence off-putting. That might well be the contrary part of my personality, though.

But, oh, my goodness, it's lonely here.
