“It’s the Issues, Stupid”
Oh, and I guess we can still say, “It’s the ECONOMY, stupid”. Not going to wax verbose today on politics. But I would just like to say:
- I don’t care that Obama is black.
- I don’t care that Hillary is a woman.
- I don’t care that McCain is old.
I didn’t formulate my choice on anything but issues and the need for change. I resent the constant suggestion that an election has to be driven by race or gender or age issues. In fact, I consider those who keep proclaiming that it does to be further evidence of an “out of touch” mentality that I increasingly have little time for. Get a clue. When our backs are breaking from a system THAT DOESN’T WORK we can see past superficial, skin deep, facades and are quite intelligent enough to vote. Boxes are old-fashioned. That’s all the news from Lake Woebegone today folks…

Totally agree 100%. I never even thought about sex, race, or age at the beginning of this whole thing and now that’s all anyone wants to talk about. Ugh!!!
