Good post Lil Dancer.
Where I come from, we are big Hillary fans. Her sign is in every yard. She is an excellent senator for New York State.
I have met her 4 times over 20 years and I have always been very impressed. However, the "hate Hillary" machine has been going on for years. I don't think you can buck that much hate.
I like Obama too. I just don't want any more Bush policies...and I think that is McCain.
It is interesting how different parts of the country have such different views.

Aw... you're just being humble.

...the James Bay Project, Quebecois separatist movement, Nunavit getting status, Mulroney (he's a board all by himself!), the francophone-anglophone debate (especially about signage), aboriginal land boundaries, the Blue Jays winning world series', why the capital is Ottawa....

Considering the overall size of the population, Canada's just as much fun "politically" as anywhere.
