Primaries

Tomorrow is the California primary. I'm voting for Obama. I have not drunk the coolaid, but hes the least shitty of a group of shitty options. At least he's smart enough to act like he doesn't like war. I don't think my vote will make much of a difference, and I've questioned the morality of voting when all it's doing is legitamising a system which gives us the same shmucks why convincing us that we have some sort of power over what happens.
I'm voting because I might as well take the ten minutes out of my day that it will take, and I care about local measures. The primary doesn't really matter, it's the local things that I want to vote for.

I'll save more ranting until tomorrow or some other time.
