It’s March 10 in a presidential campaign that promises to go on much longer than anyone needs or cares for. With McCain as the Republican nominee we have nothing else to look for besides the actual Presidential campaign. When the primaries began, I was of the opinion that any candidate will be an improvement on what we currently have in place with George W. Bush and realistically that hasn’t changed much. What if the Democrats lose though? That’s the question that’s going on in my head.
It’s hard to find any measures where the Democrats have been decisive since the successful campaign of 2004. Instead what we find is that Obama and Clinton are starting to waste their energy on each other. If Hillary really only had the best in store for the country, she wouldn’t consider redoing the primaries in Florida. When some of the states held their primaries early, knowing that the delegate count wouldn’t be taken into consideration for the overall election I don’t recall Hillary crying for a recount. At the time it was a nice opportunity for her to show a fake win, which is what the Florida primary election ended up being since Obama didn’t even campaign in that state.
I’ve heard the argument on various websites and radio shows, which is that instead of attacking each other, the Democratic candidates should focus their attention on John McCain. The democratic party needs to unite and not show how it can devour itself. Hillary Clinton then said a few days ago that John McCain has a lifetime of experience, just as she does and that Obama only had a speech. Unless I’m not understanding the gist of this comment I think it means that both Clinton and McCain have the experience needed and Obama doesn’t. So that means that Hillary would be OK with McCain being president since he has the experience needed. I thought she only wanted the best for the country? Or is it all about her? I think the answer to this question is obvious. The candidates are in a race to win and unfortunately what will happen is that people will get sick of the democrats before the actual Presidential campaign. Rarely has there been such opportunity to take over the steering wheel from an incapable driver yet I fear that this might not happen out of whatever reason.
I seriously have to debate whether I’m going to stay in this country if we get Bush 3.0 (McCain). I’m very concerned about the fact that neither of the current Democratic candidates are spending a lot of time talking about all the measures that have to be reversed. From the Partiot Act, to the Military Commissions Act, various Tax cuts. Realistically the next President has to be spend years just repealing everything that was brought upon this country. Instead, Clinton is spending her time trying to discredit Obama.
