And while I think your writing is excellent, on the whole I think you're a net loss for the advancement of women (and men.) All that said, I am glad to see you back, and happy to know you ain't dead, and perhaps almost well, and maybe even enjoying a laugh now and again.

And yet, California STILL went to her, and in fact, even the ENTIRE BAY AREA gave her more votes than Obama. CHECK, MATE.

(Didn't see this until just now--I had stopped checking to see if there was a new post because of the frisson of disappointment each time I saw there wasn't.) I'm so glad Twisty is back! Yay!

Like many other commenters I am disgusted by the vile comments about Hillary and Chelsea--and by the fact that so much of the so-called progressive blogosphere seems to think that these comments are "no big deal". Hillary and Obama are millimeters apart on policy issues, and the so-called progressives who argue that he is so much more left-wing while she is just too damned calculating and ambitious (that uppity bitch!) make me want to hurl. And they make me want to vote for her, as perverse as it may be. On the other hand, they make me think that I should vote for Obama in the primary, because I REALLY want a Dem in the White House next year, and I'm really feeling the sucker punch: this country is ready for an African-American president, but not a woman. If the so-called progressives can't handle a woman in power, how can we ever expect to get the support of the fly-over country (so to speak)? Ugh. I am feeling very very very blamey and at a total loss. Please, when you have a moment to spare from your taco-tasting, please come back and blame, blame, blame some more.
