I thought this was a pretty cool web app Cool in it's usefulness for those that, for whatever reason, don't have enough information on candidates etc.

I'm hanging out top-left a little north of Barack.

I'm all the way in one of the corners,

I guess I'm a fundamentalist now.

Sounds like my neighborhood.

With just one category filter selected (I forget which one) I was a little red dot right between Baracks' eyeballs. It gave me a good chortle.





....really felt like putting a turtle after the word chortle, and did so against my better judgement. Strange, the effects of rhyming.

I had to go to Iowa for work yesterday, so I thought I'd stop in on the Caucus process last night and see how all that worked.

I didn't have any expectations, so I stopped by some Democratic offices and found out where to get some caucus results. I stopped by Hillary's press-central area at a Des Moines hotel downtown.

I went in, obtained a guest pass, and monitored the process. I hung out for a while and spoke with locals and campaign staff as the results came in. They then announced that Hillary, along Bill and Chelsea would be giving a speech in the "Ballroom" after the 3rd place finish. I headed right over to that room immediately.

No one was around, so I went straight up to the front of the barricade.

Long Story Short I got to meet Hillary and President Bill Clinton! I haven't made a full decision on who to vote for, but just by happenstance, I got shake hands with these powerful individuals. I have to say, whatever you may think of him, Bill has a commanding presence and charisma that's just amazing. I think Hillary took the 3rd place finish well and carried the crowd with tremendous enthusiasm. I got to snap some good photos up front...

I'm excited to see what happens in New Hampshire. I think it's groundbreaking that a Black man won the Iowa Democratic Caucuses. History in the making. Hopefully times are changing for the better.

Nice report, Rick! When you see the NH vote tally I'll be one of the folks who voted for Dennis "the spinnach" Kucinich,
