Obama Wins – Thank The Lord…

November 10th, 2008

It’s Obama – by a landslide…

Readers of this blog (all three of them) will know that I don’t often comment on politics. And though my twitter feed has leaned towards the democrats, I’m more of a libertarian. Given the soaring heights of this occasion, though, I feel I must break my non-blogging policy and put down a few thoughts.

First, the Republicans:
- how can you call yourselves conservative after the insanity of the spending increases? What happened to fiscal prudence?
- McCain, what in the name of all that is holy possessed you to put Palin on the ticket?
- Dubya, there are better ways of handling unresolved paternal issues than lying, invading one country and bankrupting your own
- Americans, how could you re-elect Bush in 2004? I mean, really…

And to the Democrats:
- what have you been doing in the last six years??
- please please don’t go too crazy with the spending
- whatever you do, please fix the healthcare system

And to Obama:
- many people I respect very highly got on planes or spent considerable time helping you out. That said it all for me. They include Sunil Paul, Robert Goldberg, Andrew Rasiej, Sonal Shah and who can forget Oprah leaning on Sam Perry… thrilling.

There were times in the last 2-3 years that I despaired utterly for this country. Now I’m back up to ‘very concerned’.
