I've you've ever heard someone say politics is boring, they're refering to policy.
If they say its too loud, mean, or rough, thats politics.
Today I feel like a Roman, reimagining a Greece that was everything I wanted it to be. Despite my political leanings, I've never been soemone to be partisan. I love Nixon. I think if theres any figure in American politics we can go to, well-like and constantly come back with great things to discuss and debate, he's the man we should look to.
Today everythings grade school insults and whisper campaigns. The arguments aren't logical to the adults in the room. Obama was a secret Muslim? McCain would die in office? Its not the ruthlessness of it all that upsets me, I encourage that. What bothers me is the lack of effort, the unrealisticness of it all. Today's political strategy is energize the marginalized fringe of your base. And hope what? That they purify the party so people ask to be included?
Theres no back room deals or run up to the convention any more. 2008 was the best election cycle we've seen in quite sometime. Upsets all over the map. McCain delared DoA until people actually voted. Huckabee coming out of no where in Iowa. Obama takes Iowa, loses NH, picks up SC, loses super tuesday, comes back with 11 strait victories on a sleeping Clinton.
The bloodbath was phenominal. And now we're dead in the water. Glen Beck has a succesful show. And he's just rambling.
Yes.
He's just rambling. I can't tell if the SNL parody's are a direct lift.
I want a superstar. I want to be impressed again. Some one call up the ghost of FDR, and get me megaphone. I need to get to Washington soon. I used to want to go because I loved the city and the sport. Now I think it just needs me.
