That picture right there folks is what is causing my triple /sigh. I thought this was our year, I thought for sure in 2009 the Democrats would take over the white house, we would have our first African American president, and changes would be coming in waves. Everything was in place, and Obama even picked my boy Biden (my initial hope for the democratic nomination 2 years ago) as his running mate. Everything was perfect....till John Mccain made the best decision of his entire life. How could McCain capitalize on the democratic riff caused by the Obama/Clinton fued? It's simple really....pick a woman running mate. Not only were the Clinton followers so stupid as to already be leaning McCain's way with their vote, out of idiotic hatred, but now they have a reason with a woman running mate.
Now it's not only depressing that the democrats are probably gonna lose the election, it's actually mind blowing. I have sooooo many of my friends, who I presumed were pretty intelligent, who for some reason are planning on voting McCain this year. How the fuck can you hate Bush, well at least present it that way, and yet you are voting for Bush 2.0-older, more conservative, and even more war hungry. You guys realize he has roughly a 90% Bush favorable voting record? Don't even get me started on these fucking Hillary fans who are sooooooooooo fucking upset she didn't win the nomination they have said they are gonna vote for Bush.....McCain I mean, my bad I get confused sometimes because their stances and ideas are so similar. Do those idiots not realize how the political process works? I'm gonna try and explain this the best way I can, with an analogy.
You have two teams playing each other in football, and they hate each other. Let's keep it simple and say blue vs red. It's the 4th quarter and the game is tied with 2:00 left in the game. Blue has the ball and the quarterback tosses it up towards his receivers. A receiver catches it and is about to score a touchdown, when one of his own teammates gets so angry that he wasn't the one to catch the touchdown pass and win the game that he tackles him out of anger and resentment. Now blue team doesn't score and red team wins the game. That's what the 2008 election is gonna look like in history unless something remarkable happens. If you vote for McCain in '08 I hate you, seriously hate you, and I don't know why we are friends. None of you guys are even in a social/economical situation to even vote republican, besides the fact that your parents did/do vote republican. I'm tired of talking to friends who pretend to care about politics and still say shit like "well I'm voting for McCain because I just don't know anything about Obama." He's on the news 24/7, he wasn't my first choice (it was Biden, then Clinton, then Obama) but after actually listening and paying attention to what he has to say I became a fan. The point is though, any choice is better than another Bush, ANY choice.
