It's truly amazing what a good night's sleep will do to a person's perspective on party politics. I went to bed last night thinking there was no way I was going to vote for anybody but Dean in the general election. I went to sleep honestly believing that because, quite frankly, I was incredibly angry at the audacity of some Democrats.
After sleeping on it, the reason I was angry doesn't seem so important any more. Right now, I have to say I'm back to supporting Anybody But Bush and am no longer behind any single candidate. The primary in my state isn't until March, so picking a candidate is really an effort in futility until we see how some of the early primaries work out any way.
So now, I don't care who should get the nomination. If the nominee comes out and admits he spent every dime he could to put together an attack ad linking a fellow Democrat to Osama, I don't care.
If the winner of the nomination is Zell Miller, I don't care.
If the collective wisdom of the Democratic Party says, run a ham sandwich against Bush, I'm for the ham sandwich.
If Tom Daschle gets the nomination through some kind of political infighting stunt, I'm a Daschle man.
If Hillary Clinton throws her hat into the ring come the day before the first primary then she wins, I'll be pounding the streets for Hillary.
Yep, it's amazing what a good night's sleep will do to your perspective. I highly recommend it to everybody. A lot can change in those 6 to 8 hours of sleep to help you get your eye on the prize.
