I-a-wa is that the electronics company?
I wonder what it is like being from a state that gets to vote in elections. You see I am from California and Oregon. In elections we get to know who wins before we vote so politics on the national level is somewhat a mute point. It has gotten better in the last couple of years. With network TV being better about not announcing exit-polling numbers until some of us west coasters get to vote. That and I have moved to Texas. Last night was the Iowa caucuses and it struck me I do not remember Oregon having a primary. Then I remember yes we do but by that time the winner of the nomination is usually all but wrapped up. This is why I think politics are so different on the west coast. We do not have the same kind of in fighting or corruption, not that we do not have infighting and corruption, it is just that it is different. We protest more, and vote less and use our emotions more. You see this is the other side of democracy. Democracy is not just being able to vote, but also being able to speak out and rebel when the vote does not go your way. The West vs. East mindsets are very different about these things and it is not just the warmer weather. On the west coast we watch so much of the political process happen with out us we look at it defiantly. With that I say, so what we last to get counted, we are the fists to over though a governor to elect a guy we thought was cool.
