It’s a happy ending

The Red Sox came out with four runs in the top of the first–and Jon Lester brought home the win. Considering that Cleveland is a really good team, this is all the more impressive. Did the damn Yankees win again? Yes. Does it matter, whenever the Red Sox win, too? Nope.
Yay, Jon!
And Coco Crisp is suddenly sizzling hot.
He has cool hair, too.

In other forms of competition, the Democrats were in South Carolina tonight. Too many Democrats, unfortunately–Hillary and John really do need to talk to “their guys.” (Be careful, kids! The microphones are still on!) I thought the YouTube format was going to be a dumb gimmick, but for the most part, it actually worked quite well. I’m still on the fence about which candidate I’m backing–sort of–but, when you look at that group, is there any doubt which one of them would actually be the best President? If you ask me, Hillary Clinton walks away with the Competence Crown. So far, anyway. (The problem with John Edwards is that I would rather vote for his wife, and while Barack is often downright poetic, I’m still not sure he’s ready for the big leagues. Yet.)

I agree with you — Elizabeth Edwards is awesome. Her confrontation with Ann Coulter was a thing of beauty. Obama… I think he’s my frontrunner, though I do worry about the experience/seasoning issue. Were this the 2010 presidential elections, I would be wholeheartedly an Obama girl.
As for the Sox — yay, Sox! Good on them all for scoring some runs for Jon Lester. Considering that the Indians are a .700 ball club at home who hit a billion home runs, 6 innings/2 runs is a damn good showing. W00t!
