First 2008 Presidential Debate

The first of 4 Presidential debates took place today and I watched most of it at Pace University in New York City. It was a very pro-Obama crowd as one would expect at a university in New York. I am against both of these parties because neither of them are speaking any sense and that was on display at the debate. I may have been the only person in support of a third-party candidate at the event.

Say No to McBama

Instead of going to the voting booth in November and picking between a giant douche or a turd sandwich, go and vote for an independent candidate who is really about change.

How the Democrats Lost in 2008

This might be premature–by definition it is–but, the Democrats have squandered a chance handed to them on a silver platter to put themselves in the Oval Office. With the horrible decisions that the Bush administration has made in the last 7 years, who was going to vote for more Republican control? Comparing the candidates of the two parties during the primaries made it almost crystal clear that the Democrats had the strongest candidates and the strongest candidate: Hillary Clinton.

Palin the VP

McCain has a picked his VP and it was a shocker to me. Sarah Palin, Governor of Alaska, is the running mate for John McCain. The first thing I thought was, “he picked a woman”. Strategically, I think this is a pretty good move for the Republicans. I initially thought McCain wouldn’t stand a snowflake in hell of a chance against Obama. As the political process went on, they got more and more similar. Now our choice is between young minority and experienced politician or experienced politician and young minitory.
