Finally the Democratic Presidential Primary race is O-V-E-R

Thank you God. After months of campaigning, spending, collecting, slandering, complaining, misstepping, traveling, speaking and everything associated with a campaign, we can finally put the Democratic half of all that mess aside and welcome Barack Obama to the fight for the presidency against Senator John McCain.

I am so so so so so so happy. No more HRC vs BO ads. No more HRC period. That is the best thing ever.

To celebrate this momentous occasion my wife came up with the best quote ever for a campaign:

If I was a Clinton donor I would so be asking for a refund right now. Thanks Hilary.

Without further introduction, I present to you a video that will forever change how you handle telemarketers and cold callers. Enjoy this lesson.

Many thanks to my colleague Jason for providing this excellent find.

He calmly came over to me, so I gave him a few pats on his head. He then followed me into my house, slowly walked down the hall, curled up in the corner and fell asleep.
