McCain's Obama Ad Not That Bad

Happy August Everyone!

I just have a short comment about the latest brouhaha over the McCain ad that depicts Obama as a celebrity. I don't see this as a big deal. Let's face it, in a way Obama is a celebrity. He has gotten, at least, four times as much media coverage as McCain most of which is due to nothing short of the fact that we are saturated with a liberal media. He is very charismatic, young, good-looking and he is the kind of candidate that a liberal media can feel comfortable promoting.

Don't get me wrong, I am not a big fan of John McCain, either. I would stop short of calling him a conservative. Of course, that all depends on the standard to which he is being compared. When you compare him to a Senator who won't wear an American flag pin on his lapel it makes it a lot easier for McCain to look like a conservative. I do believe he loves America. He has the military record and the public service record to prove it. And, personally, I would rather have a president who loves this country than one of whom I am not sure.

Remember, if you don't want to vote for either candidate, you still have the option to write in a name (including your own). Yes, it is casting a losing vote but, at least, you voted for someone with whom you can feel comfortable. In this great country of ours, considering that people paid with their lives for our right to vote, not voting should never be considered an option. It would be nice if we didn't have to vote for the lesser of two evils but had a real conservative politician running for office. I am sick of hearing what is good for the Republican or Democratic party, what about what is good for America? Oh well, maybe next time.

That's my opinion, what's yours?
