There was a plane this afternoon towing a banner that said, “Vote Obama Today!” Which is interesting because early voting has ended and the regular election is _tomorrow_.
Normally I wouldn’t be concerned about anyone being foolish enough to choose the leader of the free world based on a sign hanging out the a$$-end of a toy plane.
But these days, I worry, greatly, about the future of our country.
Do we really have enough gullible people to elect Obama?
Despite having been fooled once by the Democrat mantra “We will change things!” in 2006, is there really a majority who believe that Obama can provide solutions elusive to experts, simply because he *says* he can with such conviction?
Are that many Americans really so far removed from reality?
For several days now there’s been a van parked in front of one of the buildings on the University campus, essentially offering to drive people downtown to vote _if_ they promise to vote for Obama.
I was wishing we could have the police remove them from the premises. Of course they would complain about the people’s right to vote and right to free speech. To which I would respond,
“Just because you have an individual right
does not mean that the state or local government
can’t constrain the exercise of that right.”
— Barack Obama
which is a direct quote from Obama in the Pennsylvania debates in 2008.
