379. Today - History

You come here expecting comments on Obama's speech or McCain's choice?

As I left the office at 5:00 pm, the temperature was 93 degrees and it was raining. Real live rain, the first rain in two weeks. That's today's historic role.

I'll offer more at another time on Obama's speech and McCain's choice.

A final thought: If the John Kerry who delivered a speech the night before last had been the same guy campaigning for president in 2004, we would not have made history this week in Denver with Barack Obama. Rather, we would have been renominating President Kerry.

Louisville, Kentucky, United States
Never married, liberal Democrat, born in 1960, opinionated but generally pleasant, member of the Episcopal Church. Graduate of Prestonia Elementary, Durrett High, and Spalding University; the first two now-closed Jefferson County Public Schools, the latter a very small liberal arts college in downtown Louisville affiliated with the Roman Catholic Sisters of Charity of Nazareth. My vocation and avocation is politics. My favorite pastime is driving the backroads of Kentucky and southern Indiana, visiting small towns, political hangouts, courthouses, churches, and cemeteries. You are welcome to ride with me sometime.
