Y'all, mark your calendars, today I am actually happy and optimistic about American politics. First woman to win a major party presidential primary! Thanks for proving my pessimism wrong for a change New Hampshire! And the cherry on top is what a kick in the teeth it was to all the sexist douchebags who've been bloviating all over cable news about how she's too emotional, or not emotional enough, or too shrill, or too hysterical, or just too gosh darned female. And you, Chris Matthews, the woman is a United States Senator, a presidential candidate, and a former first lady and you just PINCHED HER CHEEK? If she's strong enough to refrain from repeatedly kneeing you in the crotch for that, she's definitely the toughest candidate running (whether or not she's wearing a smooch-colored running skirt.)
So, yay for the women (and men)who got upset about the media sexism and made sure they voted, yay that the primary race is going to keep on going and two states aren't going to pick the candidate, yay that our three frontrunners are a woman, a black man, and the son of a millworker who are arguing about change theory instead of three rich white dudes arguing about who hates immigrants and Muslims more, yay for high voter turnout in Iowa and New Hampshire, and for lots and lots of new voters! Yay!
In other good, even awesome, news, the combination of drinking and excercising make you healthier!
"Non-drinkers had a 30 percent to 31 percent higher risk of heart disease compared to moderate drinkers, no matter the amount of physical activity they undertook. Moderate consumption was defined as between 1 to 14 drinks per week." (Reuters)
It's Miller time in America people.
