Wow. The Democratic race for the presidency is still up in the air. I was pretty sure that Obama was going to wrap it up last night but Hillary took 3 of 4 states. And now that McCain has clenched the Republican nomination, he's going to be able to go after the Demos and not have to battle with other Republican candidates any longer.
As the Democratic convention is going to be held here in Denver in August, I'm particularly interested in how all of this is going to play out. What's really crazy is that the Democratic nominee may not even be chosen until the convention! If that happens, that leaves only a couple of months to debate and battle McCain until the general election in November.
Denver is buzzing about the convention. It will be interesting to see how the town responds to the thousands and thousands of visitors we'll be hosting. We've even considered renting our house out for the convention (we live close to LoDo and the Pepsi center ) as apparently you can make 3 - 5k in a week. But Julie will be slammed in August and we really don't want to go live with her parents or ours for a week or two!
I'm hoping to attend an event or two in August just to experience the American political process up close. I have to admit, I've never been as interested in politics as I am now. Should be interesting...
