FOOLS WILL BE FOOLED AGAIN
I try not to look at the polls. They make me sick and remind me of the 4004 election when we thought that Kerry was to win. But this being said, the thought of a McCain/Palin administration and of a Palin/???to follow is frightening. In another hand if this is to happen it will tell us that America has not reached the bottom (hard to believe) and just like a dry-drunk our country needs to lose all in order to recover. Fact is that too many people do not do their homework and rely to the media to feed them. You know "Just as seen on T.V". And come the campaigns! Watching the RNC, I felt like I was watching a cult in action. We have lots of work to do, one is to fight the religious right . And why, may I ask, the question of religion is always one of the first that comes to mind? I dream of the day when a candidate will say " this is not of your business", we keep on playing THEIR game and we fall in their trap. There is more than the Media to blame but the "morality" of voters who do not see further that the dreams they are being sold for the time of the campaign only. And just wait, the fear card has not being fully played yet by the McCain/Palin. You would thing that fools are no more. Think again.

I don't think we have to get upset about that election in 4004, however, I do feel that Fools will be Fooled Again is an apt desciption of what may happen given the Corporate media coverage of the two candidates running. The bias towards McCain is so obvious. No serious expose is being done on his gargantuan ability to flip-flop on all major issues except the Iraq war in where he is steadfast in dragging the US ever deeper into a quagmire.
But his blatant reversals on Torture, Immigration, and Tax Cuts are hardly ever mentioned.
Given a biased corporate media, the only hope for Obama is a resurgent youth movement that will see through the McCain charade which is to picture himself as a 'maverick'. If the young people don't wake up and come out and vote the nation is in deep trouble.
