And the winner is........Obama

Though I pretty much oppose his entire platform and in fact voted for McCain over a month ago, I feel America has made the right decision in electing Barack Obama president. McCain in the last month or so, after Obama started to show a clear lead in the polls, has run a completely sleezy campaign involving character assassination and false accusations of unpatriotism. What kind of way is that to run a presidential campaign, especially from someone who was supposed to be noted for being a moderate in the true sense of the word. All I have to say to you Sen. McCain is shame on you. Shame on you for conceding to Bush and Co. Shame on you for conceding to the religious right. Were you not the Republican who once had enough balls to call Jerry Falwell a bigot, who said that the religious right "was an evil that needed to be removed from the party"? Were you not once a hero, whose entire legacy was built on fairness and decency? In the last two months you have completely sullied that legacy. You have taken part in the neo-conservative dismantling of the true Republican Party, the party of Lincoln, Roosevelt, and Reagan. So in the end, the man who proved to be the better man won and that man is Obama. And I think it is fair to say that the Republican Party needs to return to its once core values of fiscal conservatism, laissez-faire capitalism, social libertarianism or it will die out like the Whigs of old. Obama may almost be a socialist but at least he didn't resort to cheap cowardly tricks and that is a great testement to the man's character and that is a quality we definitely want in our president. God Bless you, Barack and God keep you because there is no way in heck I would want the job you were just hired for.
