i can’t think of any british person i know who wants to talk about the american election this early in the game, at candidate pickin’ time, but (as i said on twitter) like oprah, i’m coming out for obama.

i may be the only person i know who’s interested in the result of the iowa caucuses (partly ‘cos i love saying caucuses, i have to admit) but you never know which major opinion-formers might be reading this blog in secret…   

i don’t like hillary clinton’s track record (if she’d pulled off healthcare reform and not voted for war in iraq and not cosied up to a bunch of republican homophobes by being ambivalent about gays in the military and gay marriage, then maybe i would). i think it’s time for someone new.

obama may cock it up to all hell, but let’s give him a try, whatd’ya say, iowa caucuses?

update: good work, iowa! (except for that huckabee thing).

i’m jealous of dooce’s xmas present (scroll down).

awwwwwwwww.
