Slog - Comments on While Mark Warner Is Talking About Business... http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/08/while_mark_warner_is_talking_about_busin ... let me take a few moments to expose my personal biases re: Hillary Rodham Clinton day at the convention. First, as most of you know, I became a full-fledged supporter of Barack Obama in the fall of 2007—rather late, as far as my picking candidates goes. I loved Al Gore from 1992 on and immediately wanted him as the D nominee in 2000; I helped campaign for Howard Dean throughout the summer of 2004. A lot of my delay this time around was because I wanted to hear from Hillary Clinton. But as the primary race developed, I became...

The man's materially degraded society!

Seeing Lily Ledbetter talk about getting stiffed by Goodyear was much more to my tastes, even if she was well roped in by whatever. You could see the seethe.

We want that PUBLIC vote that has been given to every candidate...and we see some sexism in the prohibition from being able to record this vote. We want Hillary's run recorded in history here rather than a fight with the party...then we can all vote for Obama.

Go Hillary!

No one's prohibiting Clinton's delegates from doing anything. They, and Hillary herself, are getting unjust criticism for it, yes, but no one is blocking a vote.

No public vote! No roll call! We can't stand for it. It would be a travesty! Obama doesn't owe these crazy old cat ladies a roll call vote!!!!! Why, if they gave her a roll call that would cause, uh, something terrible to happen!


Oh, wait... Why should I give a shit? Have your roll call if that is your idea of fun. Seriously. Why not?

Annie, you write movie reviews. Don't get too pie-in-the-sky romantic about yourself just because you're at the convention.

I won't be either a film critic or a journalist as of Saturday--save your gloating for then. Anyway, I didn't call myself a journalist, I compared my feelings to those of journalists. And you dare to call yourself a reader?
