My view of the election

In this year of 2008, Election year, this has been one of the most fascinating elections ever (Of course i have only been around to see 3 of them, This year being the fourth.) counting 2nd term elections. The election between John McCain and Barack Obama has been very interesting. Of course neither of these candidates would have been my first pick. And I know I am too young to vote, but nothing prohibits me from giving my thoughts.

John McCain votes with democrats on some important issues like campaign finance reform, and he is a little to soft on immigration. He was all for the bailout bill when he said he was going to cut pork barrel spending, saying that it was the best the congress/government had at the time!!! HA!!! And those are just some of the things.

Barack Obama is the most liberal person in the United State Senate. He has only been in the Senate for 3 years and two of those have been used running for President. (And as you may well know, it is hard to run for President and do anything useful in the senate at the same time!!!) And he says HE is prepared to lead our country!!! Scary!

John McCain is definitely more knowledgeable and seasoned than Obama because he actually answers questions given to him from experience! Where as Obama answers his questions from his flowery speech! But of course he can't help it because that's about the gist of his experience! But people are so tired of Bush and the Republicans that just about anything else is embraced!

Overall though, This has been one of the most noticed and intense elections ever had because of all of the unexpected twists and turns, like 9 months ago when everyone was just waiting for McCain's concession speech. His campaign was all but dead. And in the beginning everyone thought Hillary Clinton was going to take the whole Democratic side and almost did, but people were also tired of the Clinton's, therefore giving the Democratic nomination to Obama.

But for him, the velvet gloves are off. And people are starting to see through his flowery hope message! There are also people who are so tired of the Republicans that unless the Democratic nominee was a convicted felon they would still vote Democrat. And that still wouldn't stop some people, (like Bill Ayers!) Oh! But that is something Obama would prefer not to be expounded upon! (Cuz he doesn't like it when his terrorist buddies are picked on!!!)

Now let us start talking about the Vice Presidential nominees, Joe Biden (D) and Sarah Palin (R). Most people were thinking that either Tim Kaine or Evan Bayh were going to be chosen as the Democratic VP candidates, But Obama chose Joe biden and I believe that was a safe choice because of his years in the Senate and his speciality in foreign policy (both of which are Obama's weaknesses).

Sarah Palin was a complete surprise pick because the big expectancies there were Mitt Romney and Tim Pawlenty. Sarah Palin was on the longer list of candidates. But McCain chose Palin because of her conservative roots and her reforming spirit. She has been a great help to McCain. She has also rallied the Republican base. He made a very wise move by choosing her as his running mate.

The election night is on November 4th and we are making a big party of it! I cant wait for it! So that was my view of the election and the candidates!
