Perfectly understandable...what are your options?
But why do Obama's supporters not force his hand on the change thing? McCain and Obama are vying for the same voters. Each has their respective die-hards, and they're playing for the middle.
Why on earth, after all this jawing about change, does not the Obama Tide rise up demanding CHANGE? Obama is appealing to the same voters that McCain is appealing to, with the SAME emphasis on Religiosos. It is INCREDIBLE.
Jeepers, I'da thunk...between Jihad Du Jour and our being mired in a religiously whacked country...that maybe a majority of Americans now recognized that it is desirable to have LESS, not more, religious presence in public affairs.
Of what are the Democrats so afraid? That if Obama truly runs on a platform of change, they'll lose?
You know what's even MORE amazing? Brief months ago, Evangelicals were beginning to make public remarks about having become TOO political, and about it being time to be LESS political. What do we do? Invite them back. "No, don't go...here, have some money."
It should have been a dream come true, even if they're only saying it because the People are beginning to speak of taxing the churches. The People should be DEMANDING taxation of the churches, but the People don't like to rock the boat.
They SAY they like to rock the boat but, clearly, they do not like to rock the boat.
In my view, it's rock the boat or it's stay the course.
The People are demanding NOTHING of the candidates. The People are acting like spectators at the Hairsplitting National Championship.
