Lets Talk Politics

This election doesn’t make any sense. People hate George Bush. For the past 8 years, most people would say that America has lived disastrous times. We have been plagued by war. Our economy has tanked. Our financial giants have crumbled. 80% of the people believe that the nation is falling apart. And with all that the race to be President is a dead heat. That in it self should signal a big “L” for the Democrats.

I read recently that no matter who wins the election, our political system is moving left. The best thing that could happen to the far right conservatives is Barak win the election. That way they can re-group and plan for a major coup attempt for the White House in 4 years. But if McCain wins, the party moves toward the center and it will be hard to pull it back right.

My two die hard right wing conservative friends pledge that that will never happen, and Sarah Palin is the answer to a more conservative White House. I think that the country is more like me…we are on the right but just not far right.

Today, that is what gets you elected. You need to be closer to the middle. People are tired of partisan politics and are looking for consensus builders. The GOP has won 7 out of the last 10 elections and will likely win this one because the Democrats just don’t get it. For them it is all about the evil of the Republican Right instead of creating a plan for the people.

The Republicans are like Ali and we are doing the “Rope a Dope” and they are letting them punch themselves out. All they really need to do is find the right game plan and stick to it. They are too mad at Rush Limbaugh to stay focused.

The White House and the GOP is working on all time low approval ratings and the Dems still can’t win. All the Republicans do is wink and cover up and let them swing away!
