Down to Two? Uh..Where's Gravel?

   Down to Two? Uh..Where's Gravel?

   I watched the Democratic debate from L.A. and was immediately struck by the repeated statements about how the race to the Democratic nomination is down to two. Whatever happened to Mike Gravel, former Senator from Alaska? He is still officially in the race, from what I can tell.

   I don't know about you but I am starting to feel like the mainstream media is REALLY starting to shape the race, which I sincerely resent.

   As for the debate itself, it reinforced my previous feelings about Obama and Clinton. Namely, that although I think either would be a good president, I sincerely hope that those with a say in selecting the Democratic nominee, see the huge change that Obama stands for. While I think Clinton does represent some aspects of change, she brings along a lot of baggage with her and frankly I am concerned about her electability in the general election.
