I really hope she decides not to run.  I hope Obama decides not to, too.  He&#8217;s just a slightly darker (and younger) version of your typical DLC posturer, IMHO.  I guess if Gore won&#8217;t run, I&#8217;ll have to go with Edwards.  Maybe and Edwards &#8211; Clark ticket.  But it&#8217;s all way too early to start obsessing about that (and now Florida is gonna move it&#8217;s primaries to January?  Oy).  Another warmish day here, I guess &#8211; supposed to hit the upper thirties (ah, I remember my upper thirties; those were the days).  The poor geese don&#8217;t know what the hell to do.
