The long awaited day has arrived in Texas. Will this be the defining moment for Obama, and the last of Hillary? I'm reading the signs, and I don't mean the sea of signs at the voting precints. I'm reading the will of the people, and given that I've been able to call some uncanny things about political moments in the past, I thought it was worth documenting these thoughts, just in case it happens this way, and just so that I can prove to my husband that, eventthough I don't see things in dreams like Patricia Arquette in MEDIUM, I can detect trends way before they can be called that.
This one is simply that Obama is going to win Texas.
I didn't categorically say that Hillary will go away, because I believe the Clintons are the ultimate survivors and Ninja warriors. So what they will come up with is impossible to guess. The idea that she will step down is ludicrous. The Clintons don't step down, ever. They will have to be forced by the Democratic party leaders to do something, but I don't know what Democrat would have authority enough over Brother Bill and his 'lil lady.
Obama is going to win Texas.
I've spoken to staunch Republicans, who will vote in the Democratic primary-against Hil'.
I've read editorials about Catholics in Texas who feel its time to bring back values-voting Obama.
I've talked to young Hispanics, who will be voting for hope for their future-for Obama.
I've talked to unpolitical people who don't regularly vote, but who think this Obama guy is up to something and they don't want to miss out on it-they are voting today.
I've read e-mails from women who think that Obama represents the American Dream and the can-do-with-hope ideal better than Hillary
I've spoken with white males who will never vote Hillary and who need Obama in the ticket so that they can decide later for President, having two great choices.
I've been in contact with people who are not in the polling radars, who quietly have been rooting for Obama.
The excitement in each of our homes is palpable. In this green household, the coolest and greenest thing that will happen today is that my husband and I will walk to the West U Scout House, which is our precint location in Houston, bundled up and in comfortable shoes, we will visit with neighbors in line and compare views, and we will vote.
Voting is my favorite thing to do. Blogging is second, and seeing the Clintons go away my favorite vision for America. SI SE PUEDE CON OBAMA!
