It's been a while

I haven't posted anything lately, no matter, no one has read what I've already written let alone what I haven't written. Water still passed under the bridges, and live goes on. After the three ring circus of the primary elections, I have grown as a person and have forged new alliances and found new meaning. I really liked Ron Paul, but whenever he was hit with a hard question his eyes glazed over like a deer in the headlights. I set my sights on Mike Huckabee, he had some good ideas and rightfully stayed in until he knew he was out. As a registered independent I had no primary in which to vote. I derived a great amount of pleasure as the Democrats tore themselves asunder, and actually felt some sympathy as the former media darling Hillary Clinton fell prey to the elite media as they chose a new messiah. The wonder of it all is if Barack Hussein Obama is elected the media will have proof positive that they can and do chose our electorate.

At the outset of the presidential scuttle, I actually liked Obama better than McCain. Senator McCain left a bad taste in my mouth while he was fighting President Bush for the nomination in 2000. This was largely forgotten in the replay when Al Gore fought George W. for the Presidency in the same election year. I never saw the president steal any elections, what I did see was the media trying to make the news. It was transparent, it was blatant.

I now find myself in the camp of John McCain, a place I never would have believed I would be. I am still a Libertarian, I pay dues and contribute as I can. I am also now registered as a Republican, and a member of the Republican Liberty Caucus. I do not support Bob Barr, although I respect the man, I think his third party bid is an unintentional campaign for Obama. In 1992 I watched first hand a motivated third party bid of Ross Perot gave us the gift of Bill Clinton.

A protest vote is of little value unless you know that the correct two party candidate is heading for an obvious landslide win. Just as a vote for Ross Perot became a vote for Bill Clinton, a vote for Bob Barr is essentially a vote for Barack Obama.
