Here's a preamble to election night:
I am predicting that 26% of single ownership newspapers will call it a landslide for Obama. Only one media conglomerate will refrain from using the word. 66% of those voters who have been calling themselves "Undecided" will admit to fraudulently claiming their independence and confess that they were simply enjoying their 15 minutes. And some years from now when the anthropological studies are concluded, it will have been determined that 82.1% of American women could arrange their hair, purse their lips and with the help of certain glsses, look like Sarah Palin.
It is always a gain to CHANGE a bad condition for an uncertain one..." Montaigne, 1580
"iNSANITY is voting for the same Party three times and expecting them to CHANGE." Uncle Joe 2008
"Wars are GOOD for business." George Bush, 2003
I wait to make my final decision until the day I vote. I give each candidate all of the time allotted during the election season to state their case. I am not looking for my fifteen minutes of fame, uneducated, nor unlikely to vote. I vote and have since I turned 18.
To me it's like sitting on a jury and listening to both sides of the case. I render my verdict after both sides have given their closing arguments. I am a thoughtful voter. I research and think about the issues. I ignore spin and distortions. I do not demonize either side nor do I believe the hateful rhetoric tossed around during a campaign unless there is REAL proof. I look at a candidates record and resume. I ignore ALL campaign promises because they are vote snatching tools and nothing else.
And I never vote straight party ticket because that is uniformed voting at its worst. I am amused at the insults tossed towards the undecided voters but eternally grateful I live in the U.S. where we are free to make our own decisions about our vote.
VOTE MCCAIN
VOTE FOR ANYONE
But for gawd sake VOTE. Anyone who sits out this election and doesn't vote should be condemned to watching Faux News and Rush Limbaugh 24/7 for the next 60 days and then be forbidden to utter anything having to do with the economy, energy prices, or politics for another 6 months. And one other thing...no watching sports or reading sports coverage for a year....that outta teach em :-)
If you believe that one candidate will be the best for America, vote!
If you're still undecided after all this, stay home.
If you're planning to vote for McCain because Obama is black, get therapy.
theres still time to
VOLUNTEER
i bet there is hot coffee at your local Obama for Change office
most likely it's free
How about: AMERICA TO PALIN-McCAIN: STIFLE YOURSELF
OBAMA/BIDEN @ WE THE PEOPLE
Those undicided voters, at this point, also, should not be allowed to vote for being unattentive, uninformed and too stupid....and I mean that even if they were tending toward Mc Cain. What are they waiting for? The Osama Bin Laden tape to tell them who to vote for?
(to the tune of Everybody Must Get Stoned)
They'll call you when you're dozing off at night,
They'll call you when you're riding on your bike,
They'll call you and ask you to call some more,
And the folks you call have all been called before.
ButI would not ever hesitate
'Cause DESTINY:OBAMA next Tuesday awaits...
OBAMA/BIDEN.....YOU GOTTA VOTE !!!!!!!!!!!
