I feel that I need to clarify my reasons for doing this blog because until I am being honest, I am a poser.
I am a college student and for my technology for professional writers class I have to keep a blog about anything, so long as the purpose of the blog is specific. After receiving the assignment it didn't take me long to decide writing about Kathleen Thomas' senate campaign would be fun. As an English major minoring in Political Science this topic was right up my alley, writing about politics. I made a call and badabing! I'm writing about this campaign (although in a way a little different than originally planned).
I decided I would write about politics without getting political, which is to say writing without a right or left leaning agenda (if you want that kind of information you can go to just about any other 'news' source to find people yelling at each other or acting like the world is coming to an end). I wanted (and still do) to blog about the inners of a campaign, a part of politics we rarely see. I have learned that the inside is kinda messy, and if you have a sick sense of humor, kinda funny. I hope to continue to blog about the messy, yet rewarding part of campaign politics along with some amusing stories.
