Dateline: Springfield, IL Political life is as sweet as pancakes. My first night in Springfield, I learned big time politicians eat, drink, kiss and dance. I'm really good at that.

Citizen Kate BITES the Political Sausage
Most people don't know what goes into their sausage - encased meat or political. I bit in to find out more.
John Edwards lied to me. He said that he was all about honesty and openness. Uh huh. Welcome to politics.. Also, I think he was nervous about me, I look a lot like Reille, his mistress. Maybe he thought I was there to out him? I had no idea. Take a look.

Citizen Kate: Hanging with Bob Mulholland, Political "Bad Boy."
Dateline: San Diego, CA. How progressive is the Democratic party? They promise to get America out of Iraq (yay!), stop global warming (yay!), and let a woman run this country, in a bikini. Well, I might do that, I don't think Hillary would. She might try it.

Citizen Kate scores at the Barack Obama Super Tuesday Victory Rally in Chicago when she catches up with Reverend Jesse Jackson and Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley. Finally, my Super Tuesday is starting to look up just a bit. Steve Lundin, my producer's brother, is still bugging me with his abuse, er, media training. Note to self: If you're going to a Political victory party, bring some cash for food and the bar. Seriously. They give you nothing for free. What kind of celebration is that?

Citizen Kate Update: Con Con Yes Yes
You can change the constitution in Illinois - if you can do that - you can do anything.
Hey everybody, where's the par-tay?
Citizen Kate finally casts her vote and reveals who she voted for. The pressure and choices were almost too much. But I made it through it. I was cast my first vote for President of the United States. It was a tough choice. Barack Obama, John McCain, Ralph Nader, Cynthia McKinney, Bob Barr, Chuck Baldwin, John Polacheck, and more. Note to self: Making political decisions can be tough.
When the butter head of the future President of the United States talks, you listen! We were scooped on our own story by the national media.
Citizen Kate enjoys Obama's presidential victory and realizes that with every victory comes a loss. I totally remember moment that Barack officially won the position as the next President of the United States of America. Emotions were high. Everyone was crying around me. Oprah was crying. And Barack spoke. There was an air of disbelief and relief in Grant Park that night. One man's victory is another man's sorrow. Note to self: Nobody really "wins" in politics cause once the votes are tallied, it's time for the real work.
This time, I'm serious, I'm getting the story. Seriously, I'm gonna find you McCain.
