I don't like McCain. I make no bones about it. I am not inclined to vote for him and I still don't plan to.
But this article at RightWingNews really does speak for me pretty well.
However, the real problem with Obama isn't just that he's incompetent, it's that he's an incompetent who seems to think he's a genius. Never has a man so unaccomplished been so overly proud of his non-achievements.
Compare him to say, Jimmy Carter, who was far too naive to be President and did such a poor job that he could fairly be considered the least capable man to hold that job in the last century. Carter, for all his naivete, had served in the military, run a business, and been Governor of a state. On the other hand, Obama shares Carter's liberalism and naivete, but doesn't have his experience, and is arrogant enough to believe it doesn't matter.
For that matter, compare Barack Obama to a liberal who is, let's say, a middle manager at Circuit City or IBM. Who would you rather have as President -- Obama or that random manager? I'd take the random manager because at least that person would probably be humble enough to realize how much he doesn't know about America's most important job -- and that is what we're talking about, folks.
Exactly. Obama isn't merely unqualified for President, he's incredibly unqualified. He's 40 some years old and what exactly has he done? What has he done in his life other than seek ever higher office? He's simply a guy who is good at reading speeches off a tele-prompter.
That being said, it may have been Barack's inability to do the job that had me rethinking my non-vote for McCain, but it has been the left's treatment of Sarah Palin that put me over the top.
Granted, "Politics ain't beanbag" and everybody with half a brain knows the mainstream media is in the tank for Obama, so it's no surprise that Sarah Palin hasn't been treated fairly by the press.
However, the rumors, lies, and attacks on Sarah Palin's family, many of which have been spread by the mainstream media, have been absolutely despicable.
Precisely. This is a lot like 2004 where I wasn't terribly enthused for Bush. Bush is about as unlike me as you can get. I'd probably get along better with Kerry than Bush (not that I'd want to hang out with either one). But the left's behavior was so disgusting leading up to the election that I simply didn't want "those people" to have any more power than they have.
