The Winds of Change


Here we are, less than a day before America votes in one of the most important elections of our time. After two years of campaigning, hype, biased media (for both sides), Joe the Plumber, dozens of debates (primary and general), and dozens of SNL skits...the day to vote is upon us.

Unlike the last two elections, where the elections were "won" by voter intimidation, corrupt Secretary of States, Supreme Court decisions, voting irregularities, false "swiftboat" ads, adding gay marriage propositions to ballots in key states, and scare tactics (terrorism fears)...this time America, and the worl are craving a change. And tomorrow, change we shall get.

After 9/11/01 the country was 95% united behind George W. Bush. He had an opportunity to do great things with the country united and a 95% approval rating right after a controversial election. Instead, he squandered the opportunity by setting his own agenda, one that was not right for all of us. He ignored laws, took away our rights by scaring us with terrorism alerts, lied to us about the threat Iraq posed, took record surpluses and turned them into record defecits, mismanaged a major natural disaster, appointed unfit Supreme Court Justices, and didn't care how we all felt about it. Well, now our voices will be heard. Tomorrow, the Republicans will pay the price for eight years of neglect. The Senate, House, and President will be strongly Democratic when the sun rises on Wednesday Morning. It's about time.

Although I feel Obama is a pretty good candidate, I think he is as far ahead as he is because of the factors of the last eight years. People from all over the country, not just typical "blue" states, have finally woken up and realize there has to be a better way. I've also read article after article about how closely the rest of the world is watching, and praying for change.....as this decision will have an impact on them in many ways as well.

McCain has run an awful campaign...one of the worst I have ever seen. He has had no focus, his ideas and plan have been scatterbrained....and his VP pick was a big mistake. In addition, people have finally seen through the negative stuff and the fear mongering. People want a real change. Change they can be proud of. Let's hope Obama lives up to the hype, the promises, and the opportunity he is about to receive.

Don't worry he won't. He's going to set us back like Jimmy Carter did.
Of course he ran a good campaign. With all of his so called "public donations" he made records amount of untraceable contribution funds.
You know moeny can buy expensive organizers and expensive stage backdrops..
And for the record he didn't run the campaign they told him where and when and just look and sound good.
I never heard anyone say nothing well.
The media went above and beyond to get Obama elected and when he is president they will go out of their way to tell us that he is doing a great job and that he is the greatest president in American history, even when more jobs disappear and you have to wait 6 months for a root canal the media will tell you there is still hope and change looming.
We are doomed. Not this year ut by 2010 when all the G;lobal Wrming taxes kick in and the Global Poverty taxes and the other trillion dollars he has planned for government expansion while the debt will continue to rise.
