I'm an independent politically who can't help but marvel at the tremendous waste in out Presidential race. Both candidates are screaming about change and ending wasteful spending. Yet it's more of the same old crap sling we've seen for 20 years. And spending more than a billion $ to do it.
Obama was proud to announce he raised $60 million dollars in august for his campaign. Making his record spending efforts at 470 million. That's half a billion dollars spent on insulting John McCain and George Bush. This from a man that claims to be a grass roots community developer. Do you know how many families could have been helped directly with half a billion dollars? McCain camp is a little less offensive but still can't seem to put out a commercial with out slamming Obama.
And the real point here is that all this money has been spent on nothing more than insults. Insulting Bush, McCain, Palin ...... What I find particularly odd is that the Dems still can't pull ahead. I mean what does it say about the Democratic party if all they say is true. If complete incompetence is in control and they still can't win?
I think our own "Mr. Hill" can confirm that some industries will not allow this kind of bashing. lawyers, doctors etc. are not allowed to disparage others while endorsing themselves. Once again the United States is waging a campaign of the "The lesser of two evils". Not who is the best candidate but rather who do you dislike the least.
This has become a childish and embarrassing process to elect our most powerful official. It would be refreshing to hear why I should elect a candidate rather than being told why not to vote for a candidate
When all is said and done the two candidates may very well spend more than 1 billion dollars on insulting each other. What a wasted. This is change?
OK..... thats my rant.
Shame
