Sarah, we hardly knew ya...

Not that I really cared about Sarah Palin but her quitting as Alaska's Governor doesn't surprise me in the least. I never could understand why the GOP gushed all over her except that maybe the GOP, being a party of middle aged horny white guys and she being a hot chick, aroused them.... you know.. down there! But all this spinning of her resignation is funny to watch because the political right is trying their darnedest to show her as smart and cagey. Listen GOP, maybe she just doesn't have the stomach to handle all the pressure of political life.

Can you imagine her running for national office now, of any kind, and the first question to her is going to be "How long do you intend to stay in office?"

If Sarah was the new GOP, boy are they in trouble! Democrats, don't get cocky. You got to get your act together too.

Mr. "I'm Angry"

It’s been awhile since I blogged. Life goes on and the DOW goes down.


I recently thought of a few things that distinguish John McCain from Barrack Obama.


First McCain sees things as black and white. His speeches to his rabid fans paint a “you’re either with us or against us” view of the world. His comment to Rick Warren about evil - “defeat it”- indicates to me that he doesn’t delve deeply into subjects. Obama, I think, sees things in gray shades. Again his response to the same question from Warren was deeper and more thoughtful.


Lately there is this “anger” thing that McCain foments. Others have indicated that McCain has a temper and you need to watch out! Obama has impressed me with his steadiness and his thoughtful responses to questions and events.


So the question is, would you rather have an angry, erratic McCain or a steady, thoughtful Obama in the White House? Think about it.
