John McCain has completely sold out his values from 2000 and has now changed his position on every position in order to get elected. Even Governor Palin is a cynical choice to get elected. It appeals to his base but it doesn't save our country. Senator Obama has demonstrated he can make people feel good but I think he is worried too much about getting assasinated like JFK and Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King to be as effective as he once was. I don't know what happened on his vacation in Hawaii but he just hasn't been the same since.
Both Candidates are talking like candidates for President did before 1980 but everything has changed. The ship of state has taken a financial torpedo from the Subprime lending scandal and since it wasn't handled properly it is sinking our ship of state and we may as a nation go bankrupt some time in the next 10 to 20 years. America Bankrupt? How could anyone believe that? Well. It's been coming since the Savings and Loan debacle after the Viet Nam War. Wars are very very expensive and the last 7 years is all borrowed money that america has borrowed from lenders all over earth. This war needed to end about 2 years ago not to create a bankrupt nation.
If all the candidates can talk about is Palin and Lipstick then there is no hope. What we need now is another FDR or even a Bill or Hillary Clinton or even a Reagan. Anything else but a superior President and we are possibly permanently over as a powerful nation. Both candidates are living in a fairy tale world that ended about 1980. Unless we deal with the harsh new realities the ship of state will permanently sink to 3rd world status. Do you really want to live in a Banana Republic?
