I can’t wait until this presidential campaign is over. Neither candidate deserves to win. A pox on both parties!
I wanted to develop some enthusiasm for McCain, but I can’t. He’s run a terrible campaign. I wanted to really dislike Obama, but I don’t. He’s just another Chicago machine politician, playing the ethnic politics game, a contemporary Mayor Daley (the original, not the son). Daley did for the Irish what Obama will do for blacks... collect the swag.
Both parties have disgraced themselves in the mortgage scandals. I’ve never witnessed such brazen, mind-boggling theft of the public till. Why should I pay my bills? Why should I obey the law? Our public officials… educated, highly compensated people… refused to abide by the law. (Well, in fact, they found a way to make stealing legal. Read Steve Sailer’s ongoing coverage of the great Diversity Scandal.) I am, frankly, stunned by the scale of this outrageous grand larceny. And, believe me, Obama is up to his eyebrows in this rip-off.
McCain isn’t really a Republican, and he’s paid for this big time. His campaign refuses to even address the issue of massive illegal immigration. In fact, McCain has repeatedly thrown the “racist” accusation at anybody who raises this issue. Obama is an advocate of open borders and global amnesty. For working people, illegal immigration has to be the most important issue.
The media is in the tank for Obama. No doubt about that. I don’t know whether to trust the polls, because those polling organizations are overwhelmingly liberal and Democratic. So, I don’t know whether I believe in the inevitability of an Obama victory. To some extent this “inevitability” mantra is a campaign tactic of the Obama organization, reinforced by the media’s open rooting interest in an Obama victory..
We are entering into very turbulent times. Who knows what Obama will do? Certainly, he doesn’t. He’s promised everything, much of it contradictory. He’s playing Santa Claus, handing out perks to one group one day, then to another group the next. Anybody who thinks a guy who’s raised $1 billion to run for president is a champion of the “little guy” should have his head examined. One thing we can count on from Obama is racial and sexual quota madness. Oh, yes, and we’ll be paying much higher taxes.
I don’t see either candidate offering anything that appeals to my self-interest. In a very tiny way, I see McCain as being more sensible about foreign policy. Yet, I think that we have no choice but to get the hell out of the Middle East, and to back away from maintaining over 700 foreign military bases. 700! Certainly, we need to defend ourselves and our interests abroad. Bankrupting ourselves to maintain this empire might be our downfall… the ultimate irony.
I’m going to walk into the voting booth, hold my nose, and vote for one of these clowns. I don’t expect much from them. Thank God… in two weeks this farce will be over.
Then, as soon as it’s over, it will start again. Gov. Palin will launch her campaign for 2012. Perhaps she will be different. Perhaps she will offer something better. We can only hope.
