WILL VOTERS ACTUALLY DECIDE?

Published by thilgy at 11:42 pm under Presidential Race, Uncategorized Edit This

OBAMA WINS NORTH CAROLINA by double digits.   

CLINTON WINS INDIANA; barely, WAIT maybe.

This only gives further credit to the notion that superdelegates may have the chance to take the power away from the people and decide on their democratic nominee. Although who knows how much Republicans are messing with the primaries, as they are reportedly casting their votes for one of the Democratic candidates.

Barack Obama definitely gained some momentum, as he will pick up more total delegates on the day than Hillary Clinton. I’ll give Obama this, he can with one speech sweep people out of reality and into the realm of some vague, giddy, not even sure what he’s talking about, nirvana.  I wasn’t aware that we were electing a motivational speaker. 

The ironic thing is that he proclaims how it’s all about you, the Americans, yet he always seems to speak about how horrible this country is, blaming it all on Washington politics.  I’m sorry people, but you’ve elected all the public officials in Washington. The American people have voted the current administration into the white house twice, as well as the failing Democratic congress and senate.  These people don’t appear out of thin air. 

So you’re right. This is about Americans.  But as Obama tears apart everything this country stands for, he tears apart the very Americans who voted these people into office.  Obviously change can be good, but every candidate says that.  

Hillary Clinton employs similar blame game tactics, as she sits on the same senate with Obama swearing off Washington politics.  What? They are Washington politics.  Why doesn’t anyone seem to realize this as these candidates throw all their colleagues under the bus.    At least Mit Romney could legitimately make the “Washington outsider” claim.   

Young emotional voters beware…  Don’t be fooled by the socialism attitude disguised as compassion.  In his North Carolina victory speech, he exclaims, “…We do need a government that stands up for families that are being tricked out of their homes by wall street predators.”  Americans should be protected to a certain extent with financial woes, but what happened to personal responsibility. I guess that’s not the feel good goose bump generating topic.  

Obama is inspirational.  He’s smart.  Likeable.  President though?

He will be the democratic candidate, unless superdelegates fall into the pressure of the Clinton machine and somehow manufacture the Florida and Michigan delegates into her win column. Clinton’s not quitting any time soon.  

This all as John McCain sits quietly in the background.  His turn under the microscope is looming in the near future.

    So let me get this straight, you are a democrat and have a pastor and friend for the better part of 20 years. He is anti-american, and anti-white. He is not afraid to proclaim that from a mountain top. Apparently a 20 plus year relationship can be downplayed under the “he’s like a crazy uncle” category and we as Americans let that go. Had Mr. Brack Hussein Obama been a conservative white male with an anti-American anti-Black pastor, would he be off the hook? I’m sorry, I should not have used his middle name that was mean. Let’s vote him into office and help the almight God carry out his prophecy in Revelation, I mean someon has to have the title of Anti-Christ….
