Obama McCain Debate Not As Strong As it Could Have Been
Senator Barack Obama came out to show why he should be president. Senator John McCain seemed always on the defense. He tried pulling attention off of some bad decisions that were made in the past 8 years, but Obama made sure to relate and name McCain alongside President Bush. Smart move.
People need to be reminded that voting for McCain will be the same as voting in Bush once again. Sure there may be a few minor things different, but he still backs the war and has absolutely no timetable set up to get the soldiers out of Iraq. McCain’s theory is “put more boots on the ground.” That’s insane and ridiculous.
Obama managed to make his points how he would like to make a change for the better. At this point, we really have nothing else to lose. With McCain we will continue to go spiraling down. He continues to talk about the corrupt money hungry theives among the administration and among wall street and yet he will not change anything. There aren’t any specifics mentioned. Obama wants to get small businesses back in action and try to get more assistance to those that desperately need it and at least talks about a change. In order for McCain to win votes he needs to stress change. No one wants to continue going down with no way of getting back up.
I wish that Obama came out pointing more of the problems with McCain. He did point out a few but he had more chances of completely nailing him for all of the problems in the administration that he is linked to. I am a Republican and I am a white woman who feels strongly against allowing corruption ruling this country any longer. We must change it and let this party realize we will not stand for corporation ruling. Let them fall where they may.
Whoever focuses in on improving education and producing small businesses is going to find the country improving greatly. With smarter and more educated individuals trying to develop their own businesses rather than rely on larger ones will help the economy more than anything else. Health care is a focus made by Obama and the need to help the elderly are among the changes that can be made with the right choice for President.
