A sample of the little observations you’re missing if you’re not following my Twitter feed: “Twice in a week, the Coolest President Ever has warned me not to be drawn in by ’slick’ GOP gubernatorial candidates.”

Why, because I could get filled with hope that yes, we can elect a guy who will change the ways of his immediate predecessor of the opposite party, and get the place where I live out of this ditch, and then a year later find myself supremely disappointed to see that nothing really has changed other than which party is giving me excuses?
