    micro ms. I know it's true

    But I can only hold back so long when confronted with blatant bigotry.

    And yes, Hillary was impressive last night. At least for most of her speech. She always loses me with her maneuvering.

    Generally, I am always pleasantly surprised by Hillary.

    I hope Obama and Clinton can kiss and make up.
