Papa or the whiz kid brother?
It's time to get out of the political boneyard where old hacks sit grinding their gums over the burning questions of 1968.
By Garrison Keillor [2008-02-27]

  • We need the skinny guy because we've been waiting 9 years for a 21st century president.

    It's just time, way past time, in fact.

    I'm a boomer, white, feminist female who's voting for Obama (and who finds Hillary's cred as a feminist unconvincing for drafting in Bill's slipstream for much of her life).

    Please, oh please: let's enter the 21st century at long last. Besides, I think Michelle Obama will revolutionize the position of First Lady, in ways Hillary never did, or even could. I can't think of a better First Family.
