Ingineers Ramblings

Well, Hold on to your wallets and your constitutions. It looks like for president we have a choice between a power hungry, tax and spend, warmonger or a power hungry, tax and spend warmonger. It should be an interesting 4 years.

It it Super Tuesday which includes the California primary so I am off to vote today. I do not do Absentee because it is my Constitutional right to go stand in line and talk to the old people that staff the precincts. In 1992 they were not very organized and I had to wait until after 8:30 to vote because the line was so long. I wonder why CNN was not in my neighborhood talking to "disenfranchised" suburban middle class voters.

Besides that we had those butterfly ballots back then too. I think I accidentally voted for Ross Perot and inadvertently gave Bill Clinton the White House. Maybe we should go back and recount the vote for that election too.

After today we will probably know who the likely nominees will be for each party. Romney has been playing a lot of ads on TV here. If there are republicans who say they won't vote for McCain and Dems who won't vote for Hillary, why are they the front runners. Maybe an outsider really cannot be president and it is already picked. And it won't matter if Hillary or McCain wins the end result will likely be about the same.
