Elections
Yesterday was my second time voting for the United States President. Now I hardly ever follow any of the canidates or watch their speeches and hear their ideals. Something about this years really sparked my interest more than before. I would watch a few minutes if I would happen to flip to a channel one of them were speaking on. I will openly admit that I voted for Obama. McCain had a lot of good ideals and how to solve problems. The thing that scared me the most was Palin. The things she said in some interviews really worried me. Now I do not want to be sexist or anything of that sort but she really seemed stupid. She could not even put together a decent response to any of the questions asked to her by some interviewers. In one interview she could not even answer to what the Vice Presidents job description was, and she was running for that position. My friends and I were talking and McCain is not young by any means and for some reason he may pass away, that means Palin would take over. When she talks, she brings church and state together, which is NOT a good idea. Mixing church with economic policies, in my opinion does not go well together. When you talk about religion and make decisions based on your belief, that is the wrong way to go. You should be making decisions based off the people, the way the economy is, anything but your beliefs. All in all, I am glad history was made yesterday with Obama becomming our President, congrats to him.

Palin is what scared me away from voting for McCain as well! I think at first he thought that choosing her would help, but in the end I think it hurt him!
