Ugh. Over the years, I have become very intolerant of prattling politicians. There is so much politicing and so little substantive talk, where you think, Gah! These people are just idiots!
So tonight, when Husband was switching between the football and the Republicans, I was not trying to pay any attention. Putting kids to bed. Reading some stuff. Doing laundry. And just about ANY time I happened to hear what was happening on the TV, I just wanted to slap somebody.
As we are yellow dog Democrats in this household, Husband was insisting that we should watch the Dems, to find out what we think of them. We have both become total civil slackers and know next to NOTHING about these people. I was pleasantly surprised. To a certain degree, it helps to be in basic agreement with everything being said, but also, I think the debate was actually very pleasant with A LOT less of the crap that I usually cannot stand.
I annoyed Husband by saying as long as one of the Dems won, I really couldn't lose. First woman president. First black president. Or guy from NC. Any way they slice it, I'll be pleased as punch.
Still not sure how to vote in my primary. Luckily (?) our primary is on February 12, so probably I won't really have to worry about how I'm contributing to that decision.
