umbrellas are for transients.

it's been five months since obama's upset in the
iowa caucus. it's been five months since i
reentered the country. five months of history
making as the first black american has clenched
the democratic nomination {i couldn't ask for a
better birthday present}, edging out the first
leading woman vying for president. after being
abroad and returning to the constant cluster
fuck that has been the 2008 primary season, i
can't say i'm particularly encouraged by the
state of this country. perhaps my faith can be
restored over the next five months. if only she
would concede. as jon stewart put it to terry
mcauliffe 'what the fuck!?!'
