This is from a transcript of Larry King’s recent interview of Michelle Obama.
M. OBAMA: Right. That’s — you know, what a wonderful year this has been. You know, this has been an amazing year throughout. And I think my 10 year-old daughter summed it up best the night that Barack clinched the nomination. And I came home, woke up in the morning and I sort of, you know, explained that dad, you know, actually won the nomination.
And I said, don’t you think this is amazing?
You know, I said, this is this first time an African-American will have been a nominee.
And Malia said, well, yes. You know, I realize what a big deal it is, she said. But it would have been a big deal if Hillary Clinton had won, too. She said it without blinking an eye. She said, because women didn’t have the right to vote and there was inequality there. It was a matter-of-fact.

Tags: Random thoughts
- I can’t wait for November 5 to arrive. The campaign period is just too long for me.
- Why do I keep watching all the political stuff on TV? Do I think they’re going to say something new?
- I was driving down the busy street near home at the 30 mph speed limit when a jerk in a big pickup decided to pass me and sped away. Do you think that might be why the city put a horrible speed bump on the street for awhile? Big jerk probably doesn’t even live in the area.
- Our trees are finally starting to turn. My grass is still green and needs mowing. Fall is slowly arriving.
- Can’t seem to get to sleep until the wee hours of the morning in spite of the Roserum. Then end up sleeping half the day away.
- KATV has information on Arkansas Ballot Issues HERE.
- My daughter’s new TV was delivered by UPS to my house yesterday. I hung around the house all day so I wouldn’t miss the delivery man.
..Turns out, it didn’t matter whether I was home or not – the UPS guy just left it on the front porch. Does anyone else think there are people out there who would just grab a new flat-screen TV in a box sitting out in plain sight?
- I was a good citizen and voted today.
- My IP is getting very close to becoming someone else’s IP – It takes awhile for me to cut someone off, but she’s about an inch away from the end of my patience.
- I’ve got to go take an antihistimine. I can’t take my itchy, dry skin any longer. ‘Nite.
