Yes We Can

I was happily surprised to hear obama won in mn, even though "they" couldn't hear my argument because i was working. After hearing about this video on youtube on npr, i watched it with my daughter watching. She asked who 'that man' was. I told her it was obama--our next president and as i tried to explain why he keeps saying 'yes we can,' i became teary thinking of how much our country needs change (don't laugh..i blame hormones). It seems obama's talent is raising hope in our exasperated country and i hope that when he is elected, our country doesn't turn on him when he can't immediately change the massive f*ck up bush has created.

I've been trying to teach LN to say, "Go Obama! Obama for President". Of course, I'm going to catch hell if she says that in front of PN...

I'm conflicted. While I'm willing to do almost anything Scarlett Johansson tells me to, not even within reason, Nicole Prescovia Elikolani Valiente Scherzinger (Nicole Kea) bugs the absolute CRAP out of me.

Excellent video. Pooteewheet did caucuses last night while I did library story time.

So close! And yet so far (as I didn't know she was at Carleton).
