Super Tuesday!

Some children get excited about the circus. Some get crazy when they hear the ice cream man's music (though not in our neighborhood -- yikes!). Our Eleanor, on the other hand, got up this morning as if it were Christmas. To her, Super Tuesday is as good as it gets. She asked me on Sunday if she could stay up a little later tonight to watch some of the early returns. Of course I said yes, and I am really looking forward to sharing in her excitement.




You can see who she's endorsed. Without joining the chorus of people marveling (or disparaging if you're The Man) the diversity of the Democratic candidates (well, the final two anyway), I have to say that it's pretty cool that my daughter will never know a time when a woman could not be a legitimate candidate. As she likes to point out, however, there are currently something like 30 female heads of state worldwide right now, so let's not get too misty-eyed.
