Sixteen Days Left

Yes, I know that Joe, the Not-Actual Plumber, is from Ohio, and that Joe, the Not-Actual Taxpayer (according to records), wouldn't pay higher taxes under Obama, despite all that John McCain tries to claim, in another gross and desperate attempt to pretend that McCain is a "friend" to middle and working-class people. "My friend", "my friends", "my old buddy Joe", etc., etc...come on, do you really think Mr. McCain would really be a "friend" to any of us, if given the chance? Maybe he'd put us up in one of his eight (to ten) houses, in quite a friendly gesture.

Ohio, I swear I would forever forgive you for going to the "W." side in 2000, and 2004, if you just do that which i know you're capable of, and rightly motivated to do, and vote for the candidates that actually speak for you, Misters Obama and Biden, on November 4th. Wouldn't that just feel awesome, voting for the candidates that you actually have hopes for, and inspiration about?

The only thing the McCain-Palin campaign truly inspires is hate and division, in a backwards, fear-mongering, classless way, which crassly treats Americans as caricatures of themselves, and caricatures of their beliefs and dreams. Like there's only one kind of American, and if you're not 100% in that moose-hunting helicopter, then you might as well be a terrorist.

I've seen these Palin-McCain rallies; and there's no way Mrs. Cheney/McBush are trying to quell notions of hate and fear-driven politics. It's filthy how they're running this thing, and it certainly isn't patriotic, or American, or "Country First". Notions of "Country First" got thrown out immediately when Mrs. Palin was selected as the next President-in-Waiting, by our Melonoma-suffering 72-year-old. If no one hears that clock tick-tick-ticking, you're simply delusional. What a crass, desperate, and dangerous selection, just for some headlines. Is anybody falling for these parlor tricks?

Any possible points that John McCain may have scored in his career have been completely wiped out by this pathetic, false, and completely dirty campaign. And it really is a shame. What's going on there? Whatever it is, it certainly isn't Presidential.

Ohio deserves a better president, along with every other state. This election can be amazing, if we want to make it amazing.

I want an amazing America. I think I see a good leader for such a thing.

Please, Ohio.
