Election Excitement (Finally

I had some serious concerns about this year's presidential elections because we had the potential of having 4 senators running (two Presidents and two VP's). For years I've worried about pompous senators who don't govern anything trying to be a president. That is the reason that for the past 16 years, the men in the white house were governers. Until last Friday when Senator McCain took the covers off of Sarah Palin, I was planning on writing in Mitt Romney's name when it came to the election. Now, I'm so pumped up for John McCain because last night he told us what he was going to do, why he was going to do it and he's going to do it by changing attitudes in Washington. I think Sarah Palin will be his secret weapon (for Trev--the Cardinals had a secret weapon in the '80's who did wonders for them) and she will crack the heads of Washington Insiders to do the right things. Not since Ronald Reagon gained the GOP nomination in 1980 have I been as excited about this election. I'm going to work hard to support McCain and other conservative Republicans. It's time we let our actions and our attitudes work to help the right candidates separate themselves from the bad candidates. I think in the end, good will triumph over mediocrity which is what the Dem's are promoting.

Have a great day.

Liked the Jose Oquendo reference dad. I am with you. I was not excited about McCain at all, but thought he was the lesser of two evils. Now that he has Palin as the Vp choice, and we were able to see her speak, and hear about her rise to the level of Governor in Alaska, well, she made the ticket an attractive one, and one I can support. If Barack actually had a record of accomplishing more than being the head of the Harvard Law Review and a "community organizer" in Chicago, I would take a look at him. However, he has literally done nothing as a Senator, so how can anyone vote for him?

Like the fabled voice of the Sirens in Greek Mythology, Obama speaks in golden tones of what the people want to hear. People are blinded by the light, and can't see there is no foundation. But when he has no teleprompter or speech writers, he can't say a coherent sentance. I don't know how anyone could agree with him anymore.
