Three Os for This Political Button

There are three 0s for this political button. There are the two obvious ones we can see here.

There’s O for Obama, of course. He’s the Big O of 2008. With luck, we’ll be calling him President Barack Obama next year.

Oregon Obama political buttonThen there’s Oregon. That’s also relatively straightforward. The West Virginia Democratic presidential primary is in a few more days now, but even giving West Virginia its due, West Virginia is not big enough to settle the score between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

Oregon is the biggest state there is left.

That brings us to the final O: Oh, my, God, I cannot believe this primary contest has gone on for so long! Don’t get me wrong. Democracy is a good thing, but goodness, it’s been painful to watch.

Please, Oregon. Help us get this over with. Vote for Obama.
