The eggs are ready to hatch!

I am writing this post somewhat bewildered as I sit and watch Obama surging in the polls. I can't figure out how people can be so duped by this "empty suit". He has no executive experience and from the time that he was elected as a U.S. Senator until the time he started running for President was approximately 143 days. That's less than 6 months of experience in Washington, D.C. Now I'm not saying that you have to have Washington experience to qualify for election to the highest office in the land. On the contrary, I think the LESS "inside the Beltway" experience you have the better. However, in light of the fact that Obama has NO executive level experience to speak of it may have done him some good to get some Washington time under his belt. This argument however does not seem to phase the "disciples" and they are pressing ahead blindly ready to crown him just the same. It is interesting to note though that the same people are aghast at the utter lack (their opinion, not mine) of experience that Sarah Palin brings to the table to be...VP. I know, I don't get it either. Either they are seriously blinded by the "masterful oratory" of the Obamessiah or they are just plain stupid. You be the judge. In any event, Obama is surging in the polls and that is largely due to two key factors: the economy and the youth vote. Let's take these one at a time and see why each one is having the effect that it is.

First, the economy. The polls have moved in Obama's favor ever since the "crisis" hit Wall Street. That's because the public , or so the MSM would have you believe, blames the Republicans for this mess. Never mind the fact that there has been a Democratic Congress for the last two years that hasn't done a thing despite warnings from EVERYONE. Still, because the MSM says it's the Republicans fault, it is. The dirty little secret is that the Dem's knew this was coming, could have stopped it (since they now have the power) but chose to do nothing. Why? Because they knew that they could count on their buddies in the MSM to spin this to look like a Republican mess and in so doing win the White House for Obama and their party. Their goal is POWER and more of it. it's not enough that they have Congress now they want it all. They want to destroy the Republicans and see to it that they never have a chance to take away their power again. They convinced the voters in 2006 that the GOP had lost it's way, which it did, and the people chose to out them back in power. You wanted change? You got it. How do you feel about that change now? Go back and look at what the economy looked like before the 2006 election and what it looks like now. We got change alright and plenty of it. Now look where we are. The next time someone tells you that elections don't matter show them this as an example.

Now the second point: the youth vote. This year, more than ever the youth is energized to vote and a large majority of them plan to vote for Obama. Why? Well they can't tell you why but all of their friends are voting for him and he is the first African American to reach these heights so of course they are voting for him. The cult of personality of the Obamessiah has been completed. He is going to solve all of our problems and the Earth will start to cool and our enemies will bring us flowers and, and, and.... it makes sens though that the youth would like him because they don't understand what his message brings with it. They don't understand Socialism because they have never seen it before. They don't remember the fall of the Berlin Wall or the Cold War or Soviet aggression around the globe. You see, they have always been given whatever they wanted and have not had to work for it or earn it. If they need a car mom and dad will get that for them. If they need money mom and dad will get that for them. Need to come back home and live with us after college? No problem. They are used to getting what they want because parents became their friends and made sure they would have it. So when the Obamessiah comes along and tells them that they will get more money for college, free health care, etc they buy into it because they have seen this before and are familiar with it. What they don't realize is that what he is really proposing brings us one step closer to socialism than ever before. He wants the Federal Government to take care of you "from cradle to grave" so everyone will have the same things in life. These ideas have been seeping into our educational system by the same 60's radicals that now are teachers and professors of these kids and they have been warming these eggs for years. They new that if they kept them warm and cozy and made sure that the environment was just right, eventually they would hatch. Well, the eggs are ready and they are preparing to hatch. The scary thing is that when they do they will be more radical and socialistic in their thinking than at any time in history and they will be running this country.

Not so fast!

Just when you all thought that the Obamessiah had arisen to his rightful place and had been coronated as King of....well everything..meet Sarah Palin! In one masterful stroke of political genius John McCain just reinvigorated his base, his party and this race. Never forget that Mr McCain has prior military experience and longevity in the cesspool of Washington, D.C. politics. He understands strategy better than most people. Obama on the other hand knows very little about the way things work in Washington and even less about military strategy. That's what allowed McCain to set this trap for him and as expected Obama took the bait. Now, he is caught and he has nowhere to run. McCain's pick of Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin was the work of a master. It was HIS pick and no one knew about it except him. McCain keeps his secrets close to his vest until he is ready to reveal his decisions and he loves to surprise people. In Sarah Palin he managed to unite all of the major voting blocs of the Republican Party AND he is now poised to take from other blocs that usually vote Democratic.

Obama's biggest mistake so far was to NOT choose Hillary as his VP choice. Sure, it would have been hell to have her down the hall for 4 years but look what it has done now. Sarah Palin is going to step into that void and some, not all, but some of Hillary's supporters, mainly women, will switch to McCain. Not to mention that now Hillary is very unhappy and feels betrayed by Obama. It will be interesting to see how "vigorously" she campaigns for him now! With this pick, McCain now has the following people in his corner for November: Christians, women, gun rights folks, Pro Lifers, Pro Energy backers, anti-global warming believers and most importantly: Conservatives. He now has enough backers to take this race. Focus on the Family's James Dobson has now endorsed the ticket and that is big because of his enormous influence with the Christian Right. Today there is new energy in the race and it is all thanks to Sarah Palin. Sure, she's not that experienced but either is Obama and that's exactly what the talk will turn to. Hence the trap set by McCain. Once the Obama supporters start talking about her lack of experience McCain can just simply remind them that Obama has LESS experience and he is on the top of the ticket. This is will not play well with people in middle America and will cause many to doubt his eligibility in these dangerous and uncertain times.

The other thing that this pick did was completely kill any energy or enthusiasm about Obamessiah's speech on Thursday night. It completely took the wind out of their sails and virtually EVERYONE was talking about Sarah Palin. Did Obama give a speech? Really? When? Oh yeah, the night before McCain chose that pretty lady from Alaska to be his VP. I remember now. Nice move, Mr McCain! And now the GOP convention kicks off and any "bump" that Obama might have enjoyed in the polls will be short lived because of the coverage that will surround the McCain-Palin ticket now. Curiosity will cause many people to tune in to hear her speak and that is exactly what McCain wants.

Lastly, the differences between these two candidates could not be more apparent especially after the Obamessiah's speech the other night. I watched the speech that was supposed to be about "specifics" and a "plan" and all I heard was promise after promise after promise...no plan. We are going to become energy independent from foreign oil in 10 years! Really? How? Even if he does win the election and has 2 terms he'll only be there for 8 years. Not to mention that if the balance of power in Congress shifts it won't be a guarantee that anything will be done according to his plan. Over-promise and under-deliver. The truth of the matter is that that speech was all about HIM. It had nothing to do with America. It was a show. "Look at me", "Look where I have arisen to". McCain's campaign slogan is "Country First" because he gets it. Obama is an empty suit that enjoys the attention and the celebrity status that he has cultivated and could care less about you and I. Look deeper into this Mr Obama and you will be shocked at what lies beneath the surface. But that story is developing even now and will have major implications on the future of Mr Obama and his aspirations. I knew that if they dug deep enough something would emerge and indeed it has..stay tuned!
