Yes, I'm watching.

Watching McCain make himself look like an ass right now on TV. I hope registered voters who are still on the fence are "seeing" it as well. Watching this debate is making my BP sky high.

Now McCain is touting on his health care plan with "we need to do it like the VA" OH NO he didn't! I hope disabled vets are paying attention to their "hero" because the VA system is as screwed up as a football bat and has caused too much pain and aggravation with many of my family members.

Anyone notice the pattern that when Obama is asked a question, he answers it, but when McCain is asked a question he starts off with "Senator Obama's plan is this.." or "Senator Obama thinks _______" ?? ugh. Also he picked apart Obama's answers, and he still wouldn't answer the question directly himself.

Education....OMG!! McCain just said something to the effect of "should let those coming out of the military go right into teaching positions without taking all these tests and exams... to get good people into schools." You have to be shitting me!! He did not just say that! So military experience equals hundreds of hours of instructional and classroom management training?? I'm not putting down anyone in the military. I have a family full of veterans including my husband, but this man has lost his mind!

I usually don't get into politics. You won't see me fuss and bitch about elected officials very much. I do vote, but I hate politics. Politicians make me want to vomit. Knowing a large chunk of my family are pro-McCain scares the crap out of me. I just have to keep my mouth shut and leave the room when they start talking about elections. I can see the mouths agape and breaths gasping just at the hint of a vote for Obama. I hope there are hundreds of thousands of registered voters in every state who secretly believes Obama is the better choice but are afraid to admit will ACT on that belief on the day it counts. I'll be one of those above voting in complete secrecy. Even if I didn't like Obama, at this point I'd rather take a risk on what some call inexperience than to risk continuing the downward spiral with the loose cannon McCain. Not to mention what if McCain kicks the bucket?? I really admire Palin, but I sure as hell don't think she can run the country!

    We'll most likely be voting completely alone (we're registered Constitutionalists) but we won't have anything on our conscience when the poo hits the fan (again) And ultimately we only answer to God.

  3. Yes, you're right, no matter which "majority" wins, it's slim pickins either direction so no matter which way it goes, poo WILL hit the fan. It's gonna get really ugly before it gets any better I'm afraid.
