Journal entry 17: January 11th
.
Today was the first presidential primary debate. Not suprisingly all of the main candidates, and probably most of the minor candidates, praised Sully's actions yesterday. I prefer to think that Sully's heroism unites us all. But the candidates might have been more concerned with their own campaigns. Anyway the winners from the New Hampshire primary were Winifred Burkle for the republicans, Bianca Montgomery for the democrats. Burkle was the governor of Texas, I think she was Wallaca Brady's successor. She served in the war, was captured and tortured by the enemy, and escaped. She was the candidate favored to win. Bianca Montgomery also served in the war, but in a medical unit, after she got back she became one of the leaders of the anti-war movement, and ran for Congress. Her victory was more of a suprise, particularly since she is a lesbian. Kevin Dunn, a former actor and currently governor of California, was thought to win, but Montgomery won. Whether or not either of these candidates gets their respective party's nomination has yet to be determined.
