This from a man who has run a campaign on words, honesty, and transparency. Barack Obama has, time and again, distorted John McCain's comments for political gain. You may say every politician does this, yet Obama holds himself to a higher standard when he tells us he wants to change the fundamental nature of "Washington politics." I truly hope America wakes up to the possibility that it is flirting to elect a man not long removed from his State Senate term, one who has run on a promise of hope and change even though his words and deeds say otherwise. Barack Obama was elected to serve the people of Illinois, not to spend his entire term running for President.
Let us all hope that the American voters see what I see: A chance to elect a man who has served his country for nearly his all life. One who gave up the chance of freedom in Vietnam because his fellow prisoners were not yet released. John McCain has been involved in nearly every foreign policy crisis of the last quarter century, understands the complex nature of the war in Iraq, and is wise enough to know that higher taxes, more spending, and increased regulation will not fix our economy. I am not questioning Barack Obama's intelligence, eloquence, or patriotism. I am, however, saying that he is not ready or able to assume the Presidency. He has been exposed for what he truly is: A regular politician, a man who says one thing, but does another. Obama is a liberal's liberal; he thinks government can love and help you. It can't and it won't. This country was born from a hatred for the heavy hand of federal power; let's pray that we don't elect Mr. Socialist-lite.
P.S.- I will call Pennsylvania 50% to 42% in Clinton's favor for Tuesday.
Anyone else care to guess?
