During the 2008 presidential campaign, my neighbor and I had several heated debates about the candidates. He, like many people, had become disenchanted with the Republican Party in the wake of the Bush Administration and was ready to endorse any candidate that the Dems threw out there. As soon as it was announced that Obama was the nominee, my neighbor plastered his vehicle with Obama bumper stickers and began espousing his policies.
As you can probably ascertain, I was a staunch advocate of McCain. And now that it’s become apparent that Obama is a failure as a president, I know that my inclinations were correct. It was going to be an uphill battle for any Republican candidate in 2008, and, unfortunately, McCain made some severe missteps during the campaign that probably ended up costing him the election. One of the biggest, in my opinion at least, was choosing Sarah Palin as a running mate. As anyone who follows politics knows, independent voters usually decide elections. And despite her strong following by right wingers, Palin doesn’t have appeal with those in the center and slight left.
When Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin were headlining their rally on MLK Day at The Lincoln Memorial, the site of Martin Luther King Jr.’s legendary “I Have a Dream Speech,” I knew that there was still some hope left for our country. For the last two years, Obama and the Democrat Socialist Party have done everything in their power to strip us of our freedoms and destroy everything that has made our country great. But this concerted effort from like-minded individuals looking to restore honor to this great country is emblematic of a new shift in our nation’s direction.
With the November elections just two months away, we have a real chance to kick out the Dems and bring Republicans back into power. This will stop frivolous government spending and hopefully extend the Bush tax cuts, which are desperately needed by the wealthiest Americans. Democrats have added trillions of dollars to the national debt and it’s time to stop the spending. I’m not sure how we’re going to handle this massive amount of debt if we are cutting taxes, but the Republicans will be able to figure something out.
