The why's and wherefore's
In case anybody wasn't entirely clear who I plan on voting for and why (lolz), the Washington Post's recent endorsement of THAT ONE explains it better than I ever could. Read the article at its source here!
I've been receiving Washington Post articles for over a year now, and I've always like them for their non-partisan approach to politics. They make it quite clear in the article that the Post has held a deep respect for Senator John McCain, but in light of a) things this campaign has brought to the forefront about McCain's policy-making abilities and his ability to handle the current crises (both domestic and global) and b) the disappointing, almost vindictive tone of Sen. McCain's campaign in contrast with Sen. Obama's - well, the choice was simple.
