McCain blew it. He had a shot at winning but he wanted to surprise us and he certainly did.
He picked an ex beauty queen governor of the unimportant state of Alaska as VP. She is an
attractive woman, no doubt. Is she ready to be president if something should happen to the
wrinkly gray haired presidential candidate ?
Obama has promised us to cure all that is wrong with the country and indeed, the world. I don't believe that he, or anyone else could do all he has promised. The adulation that his followers are
showing is hard to overcome. He is being treated as if he were the second coming. He almost blew it when he selected Biden, that loquacious, bullying, self satisfied stuffed shirt. He has never been in the real world. His entire adult life has been in the senate.
But back to Obama: He promises to fix social security, the federal deficit, the oil crises among
other things. It is not going to happen since it is politically not possible. I wish it were.
I promise not to vent my political thoughts again, at least until after the election.

Personally, I think it was sheer genius to choose a woman for the position. I can now understand the need to keep it top secret until the Democratic Convention was over. Only thing is, like you said, she is virtually an unknown, and worse yet, when she opens her mouth to speak, it is Fran Drescher from the Nanny that I hear.
You really shouldn't stop venting your political thoughts on your own blog, especially if my snarky comment had anything to do with it your decision to keep silent. It's going to be an interesting few months and I'll be interested in hearing your take. I promise to revert back to my usual nice self from here out.
