The day began like many others for residents of South Florida — until hundreds of thousands of them were plunged into the dark by a power failure. Something to do with an automatic shutdown at a nuclear plant when it detected some technical problems. All as it was supposed to be.
Then Congress went about its usual business of squabbling over the economic costs of the Iraq war, as well as the toll it is taking on our military readiness.
Finally, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton tangled on policies and campaign promises. Fightin’ and feudin’ is the name of the presidential game at this point. Who’ll win Ohio and Texas? My best guess would be Obama — in something resembling a landslide.
Ah, well, pretty busy day all in all. Time to call it to an end just about.
