| I don't have a dog in this fight. John McCain was screwed over by the republicans 8 years ago when he could have been a better president than he can be now. I'm less than thrilled by Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton and Obama, while a good speaker, will require a learning curve that I am not at all sure we (the poor, overtaxed, out-of-work, exhausted, vunerable) mainstream have time for. We're facing a recession, perhaps even a depression, but Obama is the best story and the one the media wants and needs for it's story, it'll make a great movie. What happens to a great country seems to be immaterial. As for me, I'd like go to a beach somewhere where the 24 hour news channels can be easily avoided, not look at any newspapers or receive any mail (email included) and check back in 4 years to see how things turned out. |
