Small Political Blog.

I have been following this election since the beginning, a whole 20 or so odd months ago. And now it has gotten to this point, we have our two nominees and two debates have gone by with one more to come. This week, it seems, has really turned ugly for the republican party. They sense they might be on the verge of a landslide and will lose many seats in the house and the senate. The thing I find really disturbing is how much anger and violence has been popping up at the McCain/Palin rallies. Whenever they talk about Barack Obama, all sorts of scary negative things come out. They call him a 'terrorist' and one person shouted 'kill him'. These are scary things, that I hope people are watching out for.

The republicans are also trying to steer clear of the issues, since if this election were strictly about the issues, there is no question that they would lose. They've decided to attack Obama's character. Even here I think they lose. John McCain is like an angry old man, who would probably die in office. John McCain doesn't have the temperment to lead our country. He totally has a boner for war, and would probably start five more while he was in office. He has already talked about Iran as a threat, and he shows no signs of wanting to get out of these wars that we cannot win. This video further illustrates why McCain would not make a good president:



Now compare that with this video of Barack Obama:



These people seem super cool. I really hope they get elected. They are clearly the better choice.
