I'm stepping up to my "political soapbox"!!!

ok....seriously....McCAIN!!!! What the crap are people thinking!!! WAIT! They are not thinking!! I have been in a sour mood everytime I think about this. I try and not to think about it but I can't help it, 'cause there is nothing I can do! and that is the fustrating part. I can't fix it. I can't tell those politicans to keep running....give your all, your heart and soul into this campaign! Don't pull out of the race just to "unite" your political party...screw your political party, they don't care about you...and they obviously don't care about "WE THE PEOPLE"!! This is the first year I have been really "into" the political process. I watch and read what I can. I'm not a finatic, I'm just concerned. It all started getting serious when I ordered XM Radio! I have access to FOX News 24/7, I have my dose of GLENN BECK in the morning. (LUV HIM!! ;). And I must say...I think the reason why I am mad as all get out....is because I have no XM radio. I'm going thru withdrawls! I have been without for like almost 2 weeks and its driving me nuts. Time to reoder I guess! HAHAHAHA
Anywho....
This coming up election is going to be a disaster! We have no hope as a country with these crappy people who are wanting to be our next president! Our country is going to hell in a handbasket. enough about dooms day....

From the begining I had no solid idea who I was going to "root" for. I didn't want McCain thats for sure...he flip flops more than Kerry himself, plus his feet lean farther to the left than the right! Guiliani...hmmm not bad really...but I want to keep my guns! Huckabee....who wants a President of the United States with the last name Huckabee!....besides...everytime I see him he reminds me of the character on the TV show "24"....he played the role of the President...the President who ended up screwing up things really really bad....ya I wouldn't vote for him just for that reason alone! HAHA Romney...I didn't want to vote for him just because he's a mormon and I'm a mormon...but I did agree with some stuff. Thompson...he was my man!! When he did that commercial...I forgot what he said but...I thought "DANG!!...thats the type of guy we need as a president right now...tough and won't be afraid to tell ya like it is!" . But...my hopes were shattered...Thompson wussied out early....Guiliani kept all his eggs in one basket....and Romney....didn't "sell" himself enough. Towards the end I was rooting for Romney...I felt like I could trust him over the other guys more...and most importantly...he could fix Washington! That's what my heart was praying for....for him to get in there and fix our countrys' mess!!! If he would of ran his campaign the same way he ran it for Massachusettes...he would of done better. If he had told the people...I fixed the olympics...I can help Mass. out and bring both parties to the table..I can do the same with Washington....but he didn't do that....and if he did... HE DIDN'T DO IT HARD ENOUGH!! Honestly...he could of sold himself alot more than what he did. Just like a job interview...you go in there and sell yourself...prove yourself to them! And he didn't. And another thing that ticks me off...he wussied out!! Don't give up!! You tell the people..ALL THE WAY, TO THE END...and then you shock everyone by saying I'm throwing in the towel!! Just so your political party doesn't get too hurt by you staying in...they lost even more by you getting out! Atleast with Romney we would of had some hope, some chance...but now...we have nothing with McCain and Huckabee. I should change my political party status or something cause theres no way in hell am I voting for either of those two.....!
.........OBAMA, anyone??!

Ugh! I totally agree. This election is going to totally suck. The only good thing about McCain would be for our troups and our defense. But everything else is aweful. He's so left and his temper!! But I also can't see myself voting for either demorcrat. Yuck!! I've heard from friends that have that (from Canada) and they take 40% of their paychecks to pay for it. It's just not plausible. I don't want 40% taken out so I can pay for others health care. And then they said you would have to wait 10 hours in the ER just to get a prescription. Ugh! I'm so nervous about our country with leaders like this. Our only hope is if McCain is smart and makes Romney his VP.

"That" above was health care for everyone. I guess I get a little heated when I talk about politics. Oh, and I hear ya on the fox news. We watch it all the time;)

if it came down to McCain and Clinton...I'm not voting...if it came down to McCain and Obama...i'll probably vote Obama....I know kinda krazy but think about it...i'd rather have the democrats screw up then the repubs...and then maybe just MAYBE the repubs can get their heads out of their butts...plus i wouldn't vote for mccain or huckabee because of the crap they pulled with romney...just because of his religion...i didn't see romney doing that to huckabee...they ganged up on him cause they knew he was a threat, he could of done some good and they didnt want to see that happen...thats something i hate about politics, but then again 'ol bush did the same thing when he ran...he ran a nasty campaign against mccain...so i guess mccain is stoopin low just to get the nod...and yes the healthcare system would be horrible i agree...but im sure obamas would be cheaper than clintons...so either way it goes, its not going to be a good thing...maybe i'll change my mind on obama who knows i just might not vote at all...either way, we're in for a rude awakening!!! :(

Reading this totally cracked me up. It's funny listening to you but sometimes it's even better reaing it! LOL atleast you have been following the presidential race, I haven't been at all. In fact about a week ago it just dawned on me that it was election time :-( oops

Hey you, you are soo funny! I have no idea who I am going to vote for? I wish Romney was still in the race but there some things I disagree with him even. So I don't, they all make me uneasy though.
