 And the winner is... BARACK OBAMA  on all three fronts.  Who would've guessed all three states were extremely pro Obama?  I sure didn't.  Personally, I'm a Clinton girl. I just really want Bill back in the White House.  The two Clintons working hand-in-hand, which has never happened before (oh, wait. That's right. There was that whole eight years thing).  The thing that bugs me about Obama is his over-enthusiastic idealism.  I'm just waiting for him to announce his new "Every Child Gets A Puppy" Act with the accompanying "Save The Leprechauns" bill.  He doesn't seem to be able to carry through what he promises.  Clinton struggles a bit with that herself, but at least we know who she's going to appoint to various jobs.  We don't really know so much about Barack.  I don't know, I suppose a part of me doesn't trust him.

I wonder how the Chesapeake Primaries are going to affect this whole ordeal. Is it November yet?

Daily Question: How do you think the recent primaries are going to affect the political goings-on?

 Hello good people of... wherever you're reading this from!  I hope I find you well.  My name is Blue State Girl, and I'm a sixteen-year-old junior at a teeny-tiny private school.  I created this journal as a project that doesn't have much to do with school, but rather my own mental health.  I recently attended a program in sunny California that was all about politics and the government.  Honestly, before this I was interested in anything BUT politics.  It seemed like it barely affected me.  However, this doesn't mean that I wouldn't vote (if I were one measly year older), because I most definitely would.  It's just that I had more important things to worry about like doing well in school and obsessing over getting into college and whatnot (I bet you thought I was going to say something completely shallow. Have some faith!).  After this trip, though, my eyes have been opened!  I actually care about what's going on in this country I live in.  Thus, this journal is born.

In each post, I will discuss an aspect about what's going on currently in the wonderful world of politics.  I will also leave a question for ANY of you to answer.  However, please be kind and don't bash me or anyone else who posts.  I may be sixteen, but I do have some insight on what's going on.  Also, it's the young voters who are really starting to count!  However, this post is going to be question-free.  I'm just introducing myself and this journal.

Well, I suppose I could supply a very simple and broad question: Which candidate do you support and why?
