Who lives in one of the cool states that get to select our prez?
Are you happy with the coverage and access to the candidates, are they overwhelming you, or is anyone over it? The campaigning seems to have been going on an unhealthy length of time. I personally can't wait to hear who everyone decides on.

6. Well, Sister, you know I don't
Do you think that Texas could possibly turn blue again soon? I sure hope so.

9. No, I have no expectation of TX going blue. But it sure needs some
tweaking in our direction. That could happen.

8. I always enjoy
Who the 100,000 voters in Iowa and the 26% Democratic population of New Hampshire and all the News Talking Heads pick for our nominee. Dukakas, Gore, Kerry, All winners in my book. Who could we have gotten better if we had all had the chance to vote.

11. 26% Dems in New Hampshire? Really? Welcome to DU, and do you
have a link? And while you're at it, only 100,000 Dems vote in Iowa? Another link would be nice.

12. I'm an Iowan
It is great to be able to actually meet all the candidates and to be part of the caucuses. It does make us feel we're actually a part of the process. However, by this stage of the festivities, we've begun to push the mute button when the Mittster is on the tube and let the machine screen our calls.

14. Thank you! I've been waiting for a native to chime in.
So electronics are now controlling your life between the mute and the phone machine. ;) I bet it could be fun, and I would love to meet all the candidates, and wish my vote counted. I hope you choose well, my friend. You are 'us' in a way.

17. Wow. I was thinking Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Nevada. What
other states will help pick a candidate? Ohio was a big part in recent history, we need CA, anyone else want to pipe up?
