McCain can still win this election! Americans just need to think what’s at stake and choose the lesser of two evils.

There’s something about this presidential race that brings to mind the falling of the twin towers. It has a sudden, surreal, frightening quality. Americans have to choose between right or left wing politics. I have to agree with Lou Dobbs that either choice is problematic.

Hilary Clinton would have won the primaries –had Obama not been running — and she is a very reliable, reputable and solid person. She could have become president and even groomed Obama for future office. However, democrats were seduced by Obama, who had a meteoric rise in popularity. When I first tuned in to the race, I thought he sounded like an Anthony Robbins, a mentor or fitness trainer. He was vague about policies, but still drew huge crowds. Do we know who is giving Obama greater financial backing than the highly established Hilary Clinton and John McCain put together? Doesn’t this seem a little dangerous in these Al Qaeda times? What if Obama is a Trojan Horse?

Too bad Americans are so conditioned by T.V.– by American Idol and the sound bite. Americans are hungry for glamour and excitement. We need to remember that this is a president we are electing, not a performer. People are very unhappy with Bush, but to elect just anyone different knee-jerk style, might be going way too far.

Obama seems like a really impressive person, an intelligent, competent, resourceful, energetic, charismatic leader. His policy ideas seem very sharp. But are we ready for him?

The problem is that what matters most is Obama’s AGENDA and nobody really knows that. It matters what Obama would like to do, especially since he is very intelligent. He may not be revealing just what his goals are. Nobody really knows Obama. Only a huckster gets upet if you say –I’m not sure I can trust you, yet. Sometimes, if a person is complex and does not reveal certain facets, two years and even five years is not enough time to “know” him. A person can seem very friendly and pleasant –con artists excel in this.

We do have some sense of Obama’s leanings because he was a community activist, working to help poor blacks. We might think that Obama supports the middle class because his mother and grandparents were middle class. But why jump to conclusions? Also, it is hard to see how anyone can help the middle class by taking more of their hard-earned dollars. Even if Obama expects to and hopes to help the middle class, how can he? Where will the money come from? The poor have no money and the rich are already highly taxed.

It’s a pity that Americans are not allowed to visit Cuba and see what far left policies look like! Would it be possible for Obama to turn the U.S. into a country more akin to Cuba? Is America ready for Obama? If not, and if Obama is reputable we’ll find out and he can still get his chance.
