I told you It's Gettin HOT In Herre!
2008's already burning up with the primaries making headlines everywhere... These are exciting times as the candidates are taking a stand on arguably the most important issues in our planetary adolescence. We've reached a boiling point, quite literally, and anything is possible come November 4th.
An unprecedented election--the likes of which I certainly don't remember-- with the opportunity to set a trajectory toward a better future by defining our priorities and agenda. That's the great thing about this US of A...we choose our own leaders. And I'm sure optimistic this time around.
You can bet Chris and I are going to have a blast following the political epic unfold over the next 11 months. So hold on tight folks, this is going to be a whirlwind of a year. Like Dylan sang, The Times, They Are A-Changin' and across the country, folks are becoming excited about engaging in the political process again.
A new generation of global leaders is emerging--and I don't just mean those running for office--but staffers, scientists, teachers, writers, and beyond. We're ready to vote and ready for change. Metamorphosis of a nation and the world is watching. It's not only within our power, but also our collective responsibility to create the America we're all proud to be a part of.
I look forward to the day I might see both of your names on the ticket running on the presidential ballot together. The country would be in better hands and put my mind at ease. You're an unbeatable combination.
The media controls elections.
For anyone who gets tired of Senator Inhofe (R-OK), Marc Morano, etc, one might consider donating to the campaign of Andrew Rice:

Nice to read your posts again. I wrote a comment on Chris' OTA post from yesterday concerning the terrific debate format last Saturday night on WABC. It was informative, interesting, more human and, at midpoint, more cordial amongst the candidates. Having both together is a good draw, and held my interest. Perhaps the Science Debate could follow this idea...
Took a look at the Rock the Vote "issues." Energy not included among them. I guess it isn't a problem, at least not one that young folks should be concerned about.
A pet peave of mine. I don't think anything is "quite literally" boiling due to climate change.
