Super Dooper Tuesday
Not only is it pancake day today (don’t forget get the Jif - lemon - folks!) but its also Super Tuesday here in the USA, something about the nominations for the Presidential candidates for the Democrats (USA) aka Labour Party (UK) confusingly though the Democrats are blue and the Republicans (USA) aka the Conservative Party (UK) are red. So my previous explanation is for the benefit of those not in the know or in the don’t care or in the completely overwhelmed by it all aka me! And it is a bit simple, but then as far as I can see the whole thing is Super Complicated and a little simplicity is very welcome, in the spirit of simplicity, Justin Webb's blog is very good......and simple........http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/thereporters/justinwebb/. And as some one else somewhere else said the fact that there is a choice between a woman and a black man with the middle name of Hussein can only be good thing, right? The BIG question remains pancakes with jam or nutella tonight?! Perplexed in Dallas......Jigna

OMG. was just about to do a blog on super tuesday! mine was (naturally) a bit more frivlous.....I wont do any west wing spoilers here, but for thos of you who have watched the mighty wing till the bitter end the names 'santos' and 'vinik' and 'Bingo Bob' mean a lot in the context of 'obama' and 'Mcain' and 'Clinton'. TV is becoming reality. nuts!
We ended up in a pub in Dallas with the Young Democrats TV poll watching party, it was fun to be with Americans that night. Texas is getting quite excited about the primary on March 4, usually by the time the primary gets to Texas the nominations are all sorted, but the race is so close Texas may have a voice this time, which will be interesting, I have heard Obama is coming to Texas, probably to Austin though!
