A Blue Day

We witnessed history yesterday. Not just for our Country, but for the world. I'm not necessarily thrilled, but I'm certainly intrigued. I'll admit that America is in dire need of change. We do need a new direction and we need a new way of getting politics done. However, I think many people think the mere election of Barack Obama and the overall Democratic landslide of November 4, 2008 will automatically right all the wrongs. It won't. The Clinton Administration set our country up for Financial Crisis in 1999 when they pressured Fannie Mae to ease credit requirements for home loans. It wasn't until 2008, towards the end of Bush's 2nd term, that the bottom from that brilliant idea fell out. Nevertheless, the actions of last night are historical on so many levels. I sincerely hope that Obama follows through on all that he says he'll do. We need reform, we need help and Obama has promised it.....now, it's time to deliver on that promise. Our Government needs to get their heads out of their own asses and get back to effectively governing. I'm not an Obama supporter, but I'm a fan of Democracy and last night Democracy had one of it's more glorious nights.

I sincerely hope Obama leads this Country in a better direction. I hope he restores faith in all it's citizens. Our Country is an amazing place full of amazing people. Over 200 years ago our ancestors began coming here in search of something better. We've gotten away from that over the past few years. We've gotten away from being good neighbors and from looking out for each other. We've spent more time being divided and hopefully in the near future that will change. I certainly hope it does and I'm certainly willing to be as supportive as I need to be to help restore faith in this Country.

It's worth noting how impressive it is for a candidate to come along that inspires so many people. We haven't seen that in a long time.

John McCain is a great America. He's given more than the majority of people living in this Country ever will. He spent five years being tortured in a Vietnam POW camp and has dedicated his life to servicing this Country. I'd imagine he has crossed party-lines more times than any other Senator, President or Congressman. We need more people like John McCain.

I hope Sarah Palin doesn't fade into obscurity. Many people don't like her, but I do. She's a real America. She is not a North End Liberal politician who claims she knows what pains real Americans, she actually does know what pains real Americans. She's unpolished and because of that she comes off as real. Being real and believable is a lost art in major politics. However, she pulls it off and I believe it's not an act.

Talk about interesting....hang on, the next few months are going to be a wild ride. Bury your money;)!

Celebrities need to worry about lattes and Ferrari's and stop trying to influence true American's decisions. If you live the life a Hollywood Celebrity you do not live in reality. Don't tell me how to vote and what to believe. You haven't lived my life and you don't struggle the way most normal Americans do. Your High-Horse is nothing more than a prop.
