Tuesday, Oct. 7
28 Days to Election:
Spent whole day in house. Not exactly true. Drove DS1 to school. Came home. Nasty head cold. Friend offers to pick up DS1 from school. Aces. Spend whole day feeding children. Changing diapers. Napping. Surfing web when cannot nap.
Then. Debate. John McCain did well. Although, v. unhappy with McCain. What McCain say about $300 B bailout for troubled homeowners??? Sticker-wearer not like this at all. One of biggest problems with George W. Bush - enlarge gov't more than ever been. No Child Left Behind. Dept. of Homeland Security. Yes, children need good schools. Yes, need safe country. No, don't need bigger government. McCain pushing socialist plan. Must learn more about plan. Still voting McCain/Palin. Make no mistake, McCain not true conservative.
Was happy about part of debate. O show self as whiny, smug, tell-em-what-they-want-to-hear politician. Am concerned about country. Concerned people looking for showmanship and not substance. McCain has substance. Palin has substance. O has unsound connections and expensive plans, changes what says to suit audience. Biden has v Liberal stance on everything, except gay marriage.
Want Americans to want what Founding Fathers wanted: Safe place to grow a family and earn a living and worship in peace without the ever-present gov't taking and expecting and oppressing. Believe deep in heart most Americans still want that. Just swayed by entitlement programs, like Gollum and the Ring. If Ring gone, would Americans be like Gollum and fling self into fiery lava river in pursuit of Ring? Self-reliance and self-respect so far gone?
