And maybe he is just another Slick Willie, dunno yet.

Look where that has gone. If Obama, Huckabee, Ron Paul, and maybe even McCain are the stop gap between evolving 'technologies', for lack of a better term, the stop gap between LPs (I actually have about ten thousand, but I'm the geek at a low power FM station) and CDs, then where we should probably be pinning our hopes for change - the only change this bunch represents is of the negative variety - on the next election. If there is one. I'm sorry, but this old half-breed with a strain of 'black' blood running back seven generations sees Obama as a bone to toss to rubes. And, quite frankly, I don't think he can beat the machine. It was just five years ago that Zip drives were all the rage. Look where that has gone.
