Sirened

Last night was truly a historic night in American history (despite Hillary’s attempts to steal the limelight like a spoiled school child or in this case, a narcissistic and insanely power hungry Clinton monster). Congratulations to Barack Obama on becoming the democratic nominee and the first African-American finalist for president of the United States.

In light of this monumental occasion, I thought it would be fun to look back at some of my coverage of the long road to the democratic nomination (when I felt like covering it).

In February 2007, when the first outbreaks of Obama Fever were spreading, I wrote that the republicans were desperate to find an Obama vaccine. More than a year later they (and the Clinton’s) thought they had one in Jeremiah Wright, but the American public proved resistant to the strain.

Back in June, 2007 when Sirened was a little more serious than the game of grab ass it is today, I mentioned that I was leaning towards Barack Obama but also posed a policy idea for him.

With support of Barack Obama in hand, Sirened used sexism as a tool and invoked the great memory of Al Bundy’s “No Ma’am” group.

Sirened played the race card too, asking some questions to see if you are capable of voting for a black candidate. Questions like, when you play roulette do you bet on black?

Back on January, 24th of this year, I jumped the gun and incorrectly projected the next president of the United States…Bill ‘Slick Willy’ Clinton! Then again, the Clinton’s have not conceded yet and perhaps are still holding on to hope they can believe in…that Obama will get shot.

As Hillary waits on the results from primaries in Britain and France, Obama can finally celebrate his victory.
