Politics Is Local

Even when it isn’t.

Jim at Wabi-Sabi made it to the Obama speech in Charleston last week, and has some thoughts on the matter and some pictures.

It’s nice to see the candidates paying attention to WV, and I can’t wait until the candidates head up this way.

I have to admit, however, that I was amused by the news of Hillary’s visit to Charleston. Obama went to the University of Charleston. Clinton went to Capital High, and was pleased that the gymnasium was filled with lots of teens. What the Gazette article doesn’t say, and what was reported by WV Public Radio is that her question and answer period was cut short when at 3:00 PM all the students left, since it was the end of the school day.

Makes me wonder how many of those students would have been there if they weren’t getting out of class.
