Expectations

The candidates for POTUS are raising expectations among their support groups. In particular Obama is promising everything but the kitchen sink. In addition to change, what ever that is, he sounds like Hoover promising a chicken in every pot and a car in every garage. He is pandering to the wants and needs of his support groups. What he is not doing is addressing the needs of the country, the budget deficit, the trade deficit, outsourcing of jobs, the falling dollar, etc. He mentions many of these things, but there are on real solutions offered.

McCain is now the agent of change! Say what? What is he going to change? He has promised tax breaks when the deficit is soaring. That is no change. He is going to stay the course in Iraq. What kind of change is that... Like Obama, McCain panders to his supporters. His barracuda throws out the red meat to the voracious minions, to be devoured like so much carrion.

Oh God I can't stand it! Neither one of these idiots will do what the country needs. Liberals to the left of us, Neocons to the right of us, the abyss in front us, as we ride into the valley of death... (sorry Lord Tennyson)
