"I can't think about that right now. If I do, I'll go crazy."

Yikes. Two politics posts in a row? But I got my absentee ballot in the mail yesterday, so you'll have to bear with me.

I love voting. The problem is that I have no idea who to vote for. I'm thoroughly uninspired by the Republican candidates. McCain is ok, but sometimes he just seems tired. I can't stand Romney. Ron Paul's personal politics, such as his stance on abortion, are a little troubling. I think that if I say anything negative about Giuliani I'll have to sleep with my eyes open, so I'll just leave it with no comment. Huckabee's interesting. He wasn't a bad governor in Arkansas, but his religious ties are a bit much. (Interestingly, in an online candidate ranking quiz I got Stephen Colbert as higher that Huckabee. That doesn't say good things about either Mike or the quiz...)

My dream is that Michael Bloomberg will run. God that'd be fantastic. That is a man who understands how to run the country like a business. Sometimes you do need to spend money to make money (welfare is not necessarily a horrible thing). Sometimes leaving people alone is the best option, as nobody likes a telemarketer (let states decide on education laws). He's certainly doing a bang-up job in New York.

Anyway, since that's likely a pipe dream and I'm becoming more and more convinced that we're going to be living in Obama-land in 9 months (that is if the media has anything to say about it), I'll just go back to reading my cupcake blogs and think about the voting conundrum tomorrow. Where is Rhett Butler to haul me up my giant staircase?
