Dear Democratic Congress,

It has become pretty obvious to me and others on the left that you have forgotten the rules of negotiating. So here is a quick lesson in Negotiating 101 or "Passing Acceptable Legislation".

During the debate, McCain kept saying Obama doesn't understand foreign policy. He used the example that Obama says he will go into Pakistan and take out bin Laden without the support of Pakistan's government. He harped on this point over and over saying, "You just don't say things like that." He insisted that it might be something you have to do but you should never announce it. I think McCain is dead wrong on this.

First some background info. I have a miserable cold and woke up in a very bad mood. This entire diary is therefore 100% snark. On to some news stories I expect to see any day.

February 5 was my first caucus experience since I just moved from CA which has a primary. It was both exciting and chaotic. Many of the precinct chairs were inexperienced and, in spite of step-by-step instructions, had trouble filling in the paperwork.

I have some suggestions to improve this for next time.

I watched Clinton, then Obama and finally McCain speak tonight and I noticed something fundamentally different about the way they are presenting themselves as candidates.

If Edwards does not pull it off in Nevada and South Carolina, what will you do?

Here's where I'm coming from: I was a Kucinich supporter (still agree with his message) but it became obvious he was going nowhere I switched to Biden but Biden dropped out when he realized he had no chance. I like Edwards message but if he is consistently coming in third in a (virtually) 3-candidate race, on super Tuesday I will vote for someone who has a chance.

My kitchen is horrible. The stove is off in the corner, all counter space is in one long strip broken in the middle by the sink which has a horrible faucet that is too low to fill my pasta cooker. The refrigerator is on the other side of the room standing alone. To reach it I must navigate around the kitchen table. The pantry, off in another corner, is also the broom closet. I have a window behind the refrigerator that is split in two on the outside by the back door...the second back door that is. Yes, my kitchen has a sort of airlock where I go out the door, then the storm door and three feet to my left is another storm door onto the porch. As for electrical outlets, there is one behind the refrigerator (thank goodness), one over by the stove and another one at the other end of the long counter where I placed the microwave.

Politics is a tug of war with conservatives pulling the country to the right and liberals/progressives pulling the country to the left. It's the activists on both sides who pull the hardest with the rest of the country lending support to one side or the other. There are disagreements on the left as to how we should play this game.

For the past couple of months I have been in a fierce battle with crabgrass. Sadly, I am not
winning. I didn't fight hard enough in the beginning; I let it get the upper hand.
Now it's out of control.

I relate this sad tale for anyone who is moving into a house for the first time, even the White House,
in hopes you will not make the same mistakes I did.
