President Obama

October 3rd, 2008

What a trip…  Tonight I am resigned to declaring that Obama will win the election by popular vote.  I have been doing a lot of reading and thinking on the topic, and I think that McCain is up against too tough an economic disaster to win in the incumbent party.  Also, with Sarah Palin acting so folksy and clever while never really getting deep or taking chances, I think her value to the ticket continues to diminish. She was great tonight, but maybe not great enough to push through the morass to victory a month from now.

Anyway… that’s all I really have for now.  Just wanted to revisit in writing my thoughts from February prior to the complete economic meltdown we are in now.  As I have said before, I am very moderate in my views so I have no particular issue with either party winning the election as long as they do the least amount of damage (the dreaded, obsolete two party system is a topic for another day).

So, my thoughts have turned to Obama’s first 100 days in the White House.  What will he do… and will we like it?
