2008 Election

Wow..

I thought it would have been closer. I'm not quite sure why I thought it but I did. Maybe I thought there would be "closet" voters who only said they would vote for Obama to seem hip or modern but really voted for McCain. I guess I was wrong...

Now as a conservative Libertarian I found it hard to choose the lesser of two evils, A Neo-Con or a Liberal. I was a supporter of Ron Paul since I had read about him and he gave me hope for the future of the country even though I knew he had no chance at the Nomination or even election. But I had hope Americans to chose what is right, if not now, at least in the future, for me or even my children. McCain troubled me; he is a neo-con by almost all definition. And to further this assessment he chose Palin as his running mate (which i could whine about, but I wont, and its to late to anyways). So, while I am relatively conservative, McCain's intentions and words I did not trust.

Obama on the other hand, I trusted more as a legitimate human being and a politician, but as a Conservative I do do agree with his policies. I knew he may bring so-called "change" but at what cost. And this change, would it be for the better for everyone or just the lower income families. Obama, a man I feel I could trust his word, but I don't agree with his policies...

Bush, for the lack of a better word, fucked up a lot of stuff in the once great nation of The United States. in his defense, however he had an attack on our nation, and hurricanes to deal with, but he could have done much better. I have no idea what he was thinking with no child left behind or the nation building he was once adamantly against.

My heart breaks with the possibility of corrupt politicians. I yearn for trust worthiness and honor in our leaders (Obama my provide this). I wish the people of America were more educated and could make decisions that would better us as a Nation and a World. I wish it was the nature of humans he be honest and caring I wish that the government would not have to regulate all that it does. Maybe I want too much, maybe I am too much of an idealist... I know that this will never happen and people are corrupt from the beginning and will become greedy...

(i hope to continue this later, maybe tomorrow0
