So, I'm a registered independent. And hadn't make a pick for the fall election. A few years ago I was excited about the prospect of a Hillary Clinton candidacy. I though she'd be best candidate against a republican opponent. I'd heard Barack Obama's convention speech in '04 and was very impressed. I looked forward to his ascendancy perhaps in 2012. Things have changed...Barack Obama will be the democratic nominee. The republicans cannot have another 4 years, they blew it. If you agree, click on Obama. (end. overt political entry)

"I've been reading ACK3 for the past few months. Daily. Every Link. I just wanted to tell you that ACK3 is one of the best filters I've ever consistently used, it just gets it dead right with the mix of topics, and almost always succeeds in providing at least one jump-off thread for my day's media influx. Thanks a lot."
