[update] Sorry folks–wrote in a hurry and didn’t realize you can’t really see the headlines — turns out Obama’s win is listed at the bottom of the paper, below the fold where no one would see it as it lays in a stack.
I have all but given up on reading the newspaper…any newspaper. Of course, every once in a while I will pick up the local paper, especially if my favorite boyfriend has written a good piece (you ‘ve heard me rave about sportswriting being the best). Anyway, I happened to be reading the Drudge Report, and followed this link because I wondered what kind of crazy paper in Georgia has made the headlines in Drudge.
Yep. You guessed it. That’s my hometown right there, and that’s our paper, the Rockdale Citizen. Beautiful. Dare I defend them and say that local politics trumps national politics? I think I will. The local races are important to us. They really are. And somebody said somewhere that real politics are the local politics. So I said it. I even believe it. But still, daaaaammmmnnnn. I didn’t vote for Obama, but I can surely appreciate the historic nature of the election. Bahaha.
