January 8, 2008: "Blood and Guts"


(click for archives)


Tomorrow is Super Tuesday, when a whole bunch of states vote in their primaries, not just for presidential candidates but for a whole slew of local candidates as well. I hope you plan to vote. Kazu Kibuishi made a great observation about Clinton & Obama's recent speeches (with video links). Hillary seems to me to be a great politician, but Barack seems more like a leader. As for you Republicans out there so eager to elect McCain, did you hear what he did to Romney just before the Florida primary election? He told everyone that Romney was eager for pullout timetable for Iraq like the Democrats are, which was blatantly not true (I read Romney's comments and I agree with them: timetables and milestones contingent upon benchmarks and success are a part of war planning, but they should be a military secret with the Iraqi government). Such underhanded behavior seems a lot like our current president and his "architect," and is that really what we need more of?

Whoever you support, make your voice heard tomorrow!

What about all the undermining and dirty tricks that Hilary & Obama have been doing to each other? Is it acceptable as long as it leads to a Democrat in office? Or dirty tricks are only "dirty" when done by Republicans?

I cited McCain's dirty little trick because I prefer Romney over McCain. It's not much use pointing out the squabbling between Clinton and Obama since they're both equally guilty and neither are using such blatant lies as McCain.
