A political post — what will my analyst ever say?
North Iowa was graced today with the presence of both Possibly President Hillary Clinton and Past President Bill Clinton during the 4th of July parade in Clear Lake, IA, about 30 minutes drive from my house to the north. In a move clearly meant to bring celebrity exposure to the dominantly-conservative Midwest, the Clintons proceeded to slow down the entirety of the parade by causing a 30 minute delay at the start so they could shake hands every block.

By the time they got to where we were sitting, they apparently decided to skip a block and walked swiftly ahead, only to stop at the NEXT block and shake hands. So we got no sweaty hand-lovin’ whatsoever. I did, however, managed to snap off 3 photos of them as they went past. I think Bill looks extremely good; he’s lost a lot of weight.
Tom Latham was also there…I got a pretty good snap of him:
Mitt Romney was also there, but since I don’t give a wet slap about him (and he was on the other end of the street anyway), I didn’t bother trying to get a picture of him.
My wife, however, did manage to take a very cute picture of the baby bunny living in our yard, so here’s that snap:
See? Â Even in a land full of politicians, at least something is cute and fuzzy.
