    <content type="html"><![CDATA[ <p>Good afternoon.&nbsp;&nbsp;Happy Friday.</p>
<p>First post, yay!*</p>
<p>One <a href="" target="_blank">steps away</a>, another steps in.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s <a href="http://www.correntewire.com/an_olive_branch_from_sadly_land" target="_blank">been</a> a <a href="http://www.eschatonblog.com/2008_05_04_archive.html#3712863813976395162" tartget="_blank">wild</a> <a href="http://www.openleft.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=5633" target="_blank">week.</a>** &nbsp;&nbsp;Emotions are running high.&nbsp;&nbsp;The spin is coming from <a href="http://www.openleft.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=5650" target="_blank">all angles</a>.***</p>
<p>The subject of Edwards&#8217; <a href="http://www.talkleft.com/story/2008/5/9/115651/6319" target="_blank">non-endorsement</a> came up in another <a href="http://www.correntewire.com/creative_class_vs_special_class" target="_blank">post</a> and I casually <a href="http://www.correntewire.com/creative_class_vs_special_class#comment-87184" target="_blank">said</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>I am of the opinion that the ’fix’ is in, and Obama is going to get the nomination. Anything outside of that would be a major glitch in the martix.</p>
<p>I’m just laying back and anticipating my enjoyment of it all.</p>
</p></blockquote>
<p>Ted Kennedy (to my ignorance) decided to do <a href="http://www.talkleft.com/story/2008/5/9/17419/80068" target="_blank">all he could</a> to help make my prediction possible:</p>
<blockquote><p>Kennedy, 76, without naming names, said Obama should pick someone who <b>&#8220;is in tune with his appeal for the nobler aspirations of the American people. If we had real leadership &#8212; as we do with Barack Obama &#8212; in the No. 2 spot as well, it&#8217;d be enormously helpful,&#8221;</b> Kennedy said.</p>
</p></blockquote>
<p>Man of distinction, that Ted.&nbsp;&nbsp;U.N.I.T.Y!!!!!</p>
<p>So I&#8217;m calling my shot.****&nbsp;&nbsp;Late in the game probably, but the nomination is going to Obama.&nbsp;&nbsp;Those who recently have done the same might look upon this as simply stating the obvious and I&#8217;m just being obstinant.&nbsp;&nbsp;Hell man(and woman!!!) you might even be right.&nbsp;&nbsp;This week has been an eye-opener for me and others who went into this primary with somewhat open minds.&nbsp;&nbsp;Damn if we could have only seen what lay ahead of us.</p>
<p>Lemme stop trippin&#8230;</p>
<p>our dumb asses would of still ended up in the same situation.</p>
<p>As Arthur Silber***** has <a href="http://powerofnarrative.blogspot.com/2007/09/once-more-into-land-of-blind.html" target="_blank">said</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>In short: the ruling elites do not care what you think. I repeat: they do not care.</p>
</p></blockquote>
<p>And with that&#8230;have a <em>good</em> weekend!!!!!</p>
<p>*With all this html, might be the one and only LOL.<br />
**Too many links, too little time.<br />
***Short sentences rule!<br />
****Off the exit sign, over the rafters, off the backboard, <em>nuthin but net</em>.<br />
*****Did I harsh your high man?</p>
