The Great Jun-Nov Waste

How can anybody not already be sure whether they’re voting for McCain or Obama in November? Millions of dollars will go to TV networks and stations, and I think it’s a waste of money, because everything that everybody needs to know to make a decision is already known, and from here on out all there will be are personal attacks.

I’m appalled by the Hillary supporters who are so strident in their refusal to vote for Obama. They’re negligent if they don’t vote, and those who vote for McCain are outright fools, because they’ll be voting against their own interests and further undermining the Democratic Party.

After Hillary’s divisive campaign I don’t want to see her as Obama’s running mate. If I were Obama I’d offer Secretary of State to Hillary and caution her to think before she refuses. And if she balked anyway and insisted on VP, I’d knock the offer down to Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare, take it or leave it.

If Hillary does end up on the ticket, then I will think that Obama isn’t perhaps as tough and willing to play hard ball as he should be, but I certainly wouldn’t vote for McCain. I can’t understand why he’s viewed in polls as being better equipped to handle Iraq. With 80% of Americans unhappy with the direction of the country, why vote for somebody who wants to keep things the way they are?
