Presidential Race

First of all, let's say hey to Katie. Ooo. Katie Holmes? Katie Couric? Katie knows who she is. Hey, Katie and thanks for the kind words. Now to politics. The race between Barack and Hillary is getting nastier. Neither one wants to admit it, but it is. The funny one now is the gas tax debate. Okay, let's look at this rationally. What do Barack and Hillary do for a living? They are both senators. What are they mainly doing now? Running for President of the USA. Okay, who has the authority to put a lull on the gas tax? First, the House of Representatives and then the President of the USA, which in this case is George W. Bush. So, Barack and Hillary can promise the sun, moon and stars to voters to get them to vote in the primaries, but guess what? Neither one of them can actually do anything about what they promise. So, while the drivers of America are complaining about how much it costs to drive, nothing will be done. And by November, when we vote for a President between McCain, Nader, the Libertarian, the other parties, and whoever is the Democratic nominee, something else will come up to attract our attentions. So, without sounding racist or sexist, it basically comes down to either you want to vote for a woman or a black man. Forget everything else. Because they can't do anything. In SC, we had a Governor named Carroll Campbell. He was a good man, but he got elected because he was going to lower car insurance rates. Everyone wanted lower rates. Well, guess what? He couldn't do anything about the rates. So, just put all the issues out of your mind and think who would be more Presidential. It is going to be a long time until November.
