Tonight is the Night

The Forgetter vs The Orator ;)

If you haven't watched the two previous presidential debates, tonight is definitely the night to tune in! There's a lot up for discussion, e g. the economy, Obama's connection with former radical Bill Ayers, and John McCain's "new" plan to solve the economic crises sweeping the US. Because this isn't a town hall format, and because both candidates will be touching on sore subjects, political fireworks are sure to fly. Both candidates, John McCain especially since he trails Obama in the polls by a significant margin, need to use this final opportunity to address the American public with answers that are gonna secure votes. With the election only 20 days away, and the economy bouncing all over the place, tonight is definitely the night for both these candidates to stand and deliver. Judging by the past two debates, Obama's sure to win this one, but lets hope he stays composed and focused. An erratic John McCain will have to bring his A game tonight, but honestly at this point is that even enough?

The debate starts tonight at 9pm, and the best place to watch it if you can is CNN. They don't call these guys the best political team on television for no reason. Great recap, commentary, and discussion on the debate by seasoned professionals!!! Make sure you check it out! LOVE

What to do with $700 Billion

Who's gonna spend YOUR money the best way possible?

Unless you've been sleeping under a rock, you know that the Stock Market is crumbling, Wall Street is under Federal investigation, the economy is the worst its been in a REALLY long time, and experts are comparing our economy at present to that of The Great Depression Era. What is now at stake, and apparently up for grabs is $700 billion of taxpayers' hard earned money to mend the crisis. While Republicans and Democrats fight about who will spend it and just how, what do you know about where your, or your significant other's hard earned money will be going? Does it mean stability for you and/or your family or a multi-million dollar severance package for a Wall street exec? Its no secret of mine that I fully support presidential candidate Barack Obama and his plan to mend the national crises, and his run for presidency. No matter who YOU support, I think we can all agree that the American public deserves to be considered in this financial "clean-up", especially when our hard earned dollars are the medium being used to fix the economy. I want to invite you to visit a link about what Obama/Biden are considering in their quest to rebuild the faltering economy, (eg. no exorbitant buyouts for Wall Street execs, helping homeowners facing fraudulent foreclosures etc.) and support their campaign by adding your name to the petition that I think will help EVERYONE. What's happening now doesn't just affect the rich. As we have already seen, the everyday Joe has already been called to help through his/her taxes. Economics def has a trickle down affect, and times are projected to get worse; try to secure stability for you and yours by taking heed to this crisis and the subsequent "economic fix" that politicians are presenting. If everyone plays a part, there can be a change....LOVE

MYOB


Kudos to my personal favorite presidential candidate Barack Obama who said,

"Let me be as clear as possible, I think people's families are off-limits,
and people's children are especially off-limits. This shouldn't be part of our
politics. It has no relevance to Gov. Palin's performance as governor or her
potential performance as a vice president."

in reference to the news about the Republican Party's new Vice Presidential's nominee, Sarah Palin's 17 year old daughter being pregnant. Obama also said reporters should "back off these kinds of stories" and referred to the fact that he was born to an 18-year-old mother.


Way to go Barack!!! A presidential candidate who's definitely proved to us in more ways than one that he is definitely in touch with the American people and our issues!!! Perhaps politicians will finally realize that the act of governing and leading should NEVER be determined or judged by personal issues, but the integrity of abilty and the execution thereof!!! Keep rocking Barack...you've definitely got my vote!!!!
