February 19, 2008

Barack Obama is steamrolling over Hillary Clinton in the Democratic presidential campaign. I thought it was going to be a dog fight, I had no idea it would be a bloodbath. I sort of feel sorry for Hillary Clinton. I mean I do not like her as a candidate by no means, but if her husband Bill would just shut his mouth she might have a fighting chance. Naw, she probably wouldn't. I don't trust her and probably lots of others do not either. I feel she's a candidate in the same vein as John Kerry and Al Gore- say and/or do anything to get elected.

One thing you can't take away from Mr. Obama is his speaking style. He can move an crowd like no other. I hope if he is elected to the highest office in the land that he backs up those words with fairness and insight into the real America. I've told my son and I think he agrees that these politicians have no idea how real Americans live. I know they go from state to state shaking hands and kissing babies but they only meet with people for a small amount of time. They need to live a month with someone and see how real America lives- like a month right here in the coal fields of my state. Yeah that would be sweet. *smile*

I took a 10 question quiz today to see how my ideas line up with the candidates and I came out closer to both Clinton and Obama. It was a tie between them and it surprised me a little. None the less I will NOT be voting for either one of these candidates.

Today it snowed a bit. It's also been cold and it's supposed to be so all week. Since I'm built for the cold weather I think it's ok. Paula Ann, my sister, has gotten into some Sycamore tree spores AGAIN and is broken out all over. The last time her face swelled up so bad. I hope that doesn't happen this time.

I'm in a better mood than the last time I posted. Eh. LOL.


Oh, btw, LOST this week WAS awesome as always. All I could say at the end of the episode was WHOA! I can't wait until this Thursday. My son said I should watch Dexter that is on Showtime but is now airing on CBS. Well I did, and wow, I don't know what to say about that show. It made me feel dirty watching it. LOL. It's like a car wreck, you just can't stop looking. (OOPS did I just plagiarize you son?) haha. Anywho, until next time, Be Blessed. :)

I agree with you that Mr. Obama has a commanding way of motivating others with his words, much like John F. Kennedy. However great he is at public speaking, I do not believe he has enough backbone or guts to be the Commander and Chief of the United States. Ultimately, he seems to say "why can't we all just get along" instead of standing up for freedom and liberty, even if that means bloodshed. In short, he's a socialist.

You're right, the candidates don't understand the average American whatsoever. This platform that Hillary preaches from about standing up for the rights and grievances of the lower income bracket of America is hogwash. I wonder how she could possibly know what the lower to middle class American needs/wants/deserves when her nose is so high up in the air?

Furthermore, its been long forgotten but I will never forget how the Clinton's STOLE America's history when moving out of the White House... they feel entitled to say and do anything, but apologize for nothing. She will disgrace this country if nominated for the presidency.

I enjoyed your post-

Hey Lost, I totally agree with you. It's almost blasphemy here on the net to say you vote for republicans or that you are against abortion or that you are a christian. I admire you for putting your blog out there for all to see. Thanks for commenting to me.
