Travelling Road Shows


I've never seen 1268 political cartoons. That's how many Yahoo has on just the presidential campaign in America.
And you can't help laughing.
The humor of the campaign tells much more about the mood of the country than any poll. Humor reflects people's rage and frustration. That's why it's a release. And why it must be accurate.

John McCain would have made a great President - 10 years ago.
Now McCain is just trying to avoid being accountable for his own history, and his party.

Sarah Palin just ain't got the right stuff. But she is soooo funny! (- or is that Tina Fey?) It's hard to see Tina Fey for Sarah Palin. Uh, .. Sarah Palin for Tina Fey, sorry...

Barack Obama is so iconic, you gotta wonder if he has any idea who he really is. But he is the great leader of this campaign. He is inspirational. He is exciting. He is full of Hope and Wonder.
With any other VP but Biden, I'd find Obama irresistable. I'm too much of an idealist, and I know it.

The Feminists would fund Obama's assassination just to have Joe Biden as President.

We got two old men, one rock star, and a second place beauty contest winner.
Sheesh. - This is the leadership of the greatest nation on Earth? - the economic hyperpower?

These people make you wonder about the whole democratic process in America.

Obama doesn't come across as full of hate and revenge like so many other black candidates. But when you look at the people who support him, it's all there. He's never really experienced prejudice. The rage doesn't poison every look and smile.

It looked like Hillary would be the Democratic candidate until Oprah threw her weight behind Obama. That must've been a tough decision for her: whether to choose Hillary, a white woman, or Obama, a black man who had little of the black experience.
I can only imagine the deal to make Joe Biden the VP was done even then. Hillary, an obvious feminist leader but her own woman, as opposed to Obama who would owe his political soul to the Cause. And to cement the deal, Joe Biden.
You have to give Joe Biden credit. He can push through a bill in Congress even if it is illegal, immoral, and unconstitutional. He so believes in himself and his destiny, the words of his oath of office mean nothing.
Biden is the hidden time bomb in the Obama camp.

What happened to Bill and Hillary? I want them back!

I guess if it comes down to it, you go with the better leader - and hope for the best.
