Thoughts about the Election.
I'm going to talk about something that I haven't seen many other people, especially faggy liberals who voted for the Terrorist Party like myself, have said.
The election is a race between two individuals who will guide the course of American history in the upcoming years. It is a seat of power unlike any other, and unmistakably the one with the most potential to do good or bad for many people the world over.
What I'm going to talk about isn't Obama's victory as the first black president, or the position we're in that is eerily reminiscent of where FDR came into the picture, but about John McCain.
I feel really bad for Senator McCain. I would go so far as to say McCain is who I would have voted for 8 years ago (if I could have voted at the time) if he was up against Gore. Unfortunately, he was the Republican candidate for Bush's America.
McCain had to sell out to get as far as he did. Everyone complained about him being 'too soft' because he wasn't this crazy bastard who wanted to turn the middle east into glass and run over the constitution with a bible in one hand and a sharpie marker in the other.
You can tell when Senator McCain was talking about things he believed in and when he wasn't. Most of the speeches he gave were flat. Rare was a time when McCain was really behind what he said, and you could feel that passion coming through him. The primaries were great for this. He *was* a maverick in that dicey race. What he had to do after that was fit in with the far right is a damn shame.
This election was McCain's last chance to really shine, and he ended up trying to sell an out of style model with a terrible running mate. He got one of the worst hands I've ever seen dealt to a politician, and I can't help but feel that the GOP used him as a throw-away because they knew they couldn't win this one.
