Presidential Election

Last I read, Obama is up by 6 points in the Rasmussen poll.  It’s Monday at 10:00 pm and it is now (if it wasn’t already there) in the hands of the American electorate.  I am here to say, as if it wasn’t apparent, that I am voting for McCain.  There are MANY reasons that Senator McCain is getting my vote, but I can honestly say a large reason is because I firmly believe, and I have yet to find an Obama supporter that can argue against this with any intelligence is, that McCain is a more QUALIFIED candidate to become POTUS than Obama, period.  ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY THREE DAYS…..Why do I emphasize those 6 words???  Simple, that’s how many days that Senator Obamahas been a U.S. Senator.  My Lord, you can’t become a shift manager at McDonald’s with that many days “on the job”.  So what makes this man QUALIFIED to become POTUS, and more importantly what is wrong with the American people that they are sooooo willing to vote this guy in???? 

I will say this, Senator Obama is right on a couple things.  One, and I heard this on Monday Night Football, is that college football needs a playoff system (8 teams and let them play it out for the national championship) and two, that this election is one of the most important elections to face the American public.  With that knowledge (and I think we can all agree that Obama is correct on the importance of this race – and the playoff system…) don’t you think that we, as a country should put someone in charge that is slightly more qualified than a junior senator, with a hair more than 2 years in the US Senate, with no executive, and foreign affairs experience (amongst other concerns)????  It sounds like a simple question, but for some reason, if you trust the polls, over 50% of those polled think it’s ok to put the district manager of the Elk Grove Village McDonald’s (Illinois suburb reference) in charge of the Corporation.  You can tell me that he’s going to have advisers, (Biden, for example…..Oh, wait Democrats don’t really want to admit that), but you can put all of the VP’s/advisers in place, but the final decision still comes down to the district manager now made leader of the free world.  Does it sound scary?  If it doesn’t you need to look around.  If it looks dark and kind of grainy, you need to get your head out of the sand and realize we are in a world that needs experience, not prophetized “HOPE”.

Tomorrow will give us a new president.  If things go as most people expect, America will be electing one of the most liberal, inexperienced people to sit in that office in the modern age.  Do me a favor America, DO NOT blame me (or the Republicans), come 2010, when things look like absolute garbage.  That falls squarely on the Democratic leadership, Barak Obama, and most importantly those people that voted for that ever popular District Manager.
