Well it seems the press, or the interpress (not sure what we are going to call the press once presses becomes things of the past, I guess we will still them the press, like Films, Albums and TV Dials, or maybe "The Media" but I am not sure that works) is finally catching on to Hillary's wonky popular vote count. Slate has a few pieces outlining how her claim to be ahead in the popular vote requires giving her the votes in Michigan, and giving Obama no votes from Michigan. I am sure I have covered this before, but this whole popular vote argument in bunk anyhow. Caucuses are representations of popular vote and should not be counted as single votes but as representation of a larger whole, which is why we have delegates in the first place. The general election is a different story, because there are no caucuses, so the popular vote is a true representation of the will of the people. Boy I could go on about this stuff for hours, but I won't because Murray needs to use the computer. I will just make one more point, which is if Hillary is so worried about counting every vote, and disenfranchising the people of Florida and Michigan, why did she sign an agreement before the elections stating that those votes would not count? Where was her outrage then? It seems to me the only votes Hillary wants to make sure get counted are the ones for her.
I was avoiding this Roxy Music album, I guess because of that song Avalon, which I find pretty boring. The first couple of songs off of this album I liked quite a bit though. After that less so. C+ for Roxy Music.
