Rainy Day Fun and Games

Not only is it cold and wet this week Middlebury, VT, but the nomination battle remains in a cold, stagnant, swampy, sorry state.

Tuesday is not going to change anything: Obama will win NC though not by as large a margin as he would like. Hillary will win in Indiana, but it will do nothing to change the cold truth that she can't win without an increasingly unlikely coup d'superdelegate.

So, what's a political junkie to do, trapped inside during the cold, wet nomination battle, until the wide grassy field of general election season opens?

Fear not.

1. Relax your electibility tension with a warm bath, some scented candles, and a few blissful hours playing with the electoral college map at 270towin.com. Every time I do, that little voice in my head that says "If we lose Ohio and Florida, we lose the election" floats away. Ahhhhhhhh....... all we have to do is win the Kerry states plus Iowa, Colorado and New Mexico. I swear, it's better than a massage.





2. Measure up your political philosophy against your some of your favorite politicians at the electoralcompass.com. Maybe you'll be surprised, though um..... I wasn't:



3. Watch some good pornography. I mean The West Wing. Then cry and do it again.
