If you know me, you'd be surpised that I haven't commented that much on the election so far, particularly the two Ajaxes doing battle on the fields of Homer, with musical accompanyment by Offenbach. Anyway, here's my take so far:
Barak Obama: Great orator and very inspirational. But to what end? My concern first and foremost is his policies and lack of experience ("I'll concede any point to any dictator."). Let's not forget his two major scandels in that he got caught waffling on health care reform (he one breath he said he was for socialized medicine, in the next against it), and now with the race debate it's getting interesting. Not only does his pastor at the church he never attends (but exposes his children to) because he's off playing paintball (let's hope his military policy doesn't include supplying paintball guns to everyone) preach a Marxist version of black liberation theology, many of his campaign supporters and inner circle members espouse similar beliefs.
Hillary Clinton: Oh where can I begin? Let's start with the latest with her gaffe how she misremembered getting shot at on the Tarmac in Bosnia, insulting the armed forces because they would never allow a First Lady to land in those conditions, although some Presidents would not only allow but cause to happen the Secretary of Commerce to do that if the Secretary of Commerce has blackmail information on the President. Where are her tax documents that showed how much Bill really made on his book? How about her schedule that shows she was more influential in pardongate than she let on, with several campain contributions coming her way immediately thereafter? The list goes on and on.
Anyway, it's still early and possibly there might be some scandle to break about McCain, although he was quite vetted by everyone in 2000 and through the primaries.
