Clever Ploy for McCain

Why did all republican candidates, falter one after another, in favor of McCain ?  Since they did not belong to the Old Boy’s network. Hence President Bush,  Senior Bush and numerous others have endorsed McCain, so that the ‘Same Ol, Same Ol’  can be continued, no one comes forward to rock the boat, the tax cuts for the rich as well as deployment of troops in Iraq to keep our contractors profitable, stays in place.

Why do so many democrats like Kerry, Kennedy, Lewis are against Hillary Clinton ?

To help McCain get elected, and save the country from the embarrassment of being run by a woman, who is untested and could be unpredictable, may bring troops back home on popular demand.

Do we treat women equally, and will we allow them to get into powerful positions? We should not, as our religion, the literal word of God in the Bible, tells us that women were created from the rib bone of a man, and  are inferior to men and should follow men, not lead them.  Hence the entire democratic party stalwarts are busy embarrassing Hillary, trying to  get her out of  the  race, by supporting Obama.  Why black Obama then,  who has been meticulously trying to hide his middle Muslim initial,  Hussain?  Why are white Christians so generous with their money and support for black Obama ? Do we love blacks, have we changed,  want to provide  them  with equal opportunity ? Are you kidding ?  Do we want Obama in White House ?  An emphatic No. We would have treated Obama like we did to Martin Luther King or to Malcolm X, or are doing to Lois Farrakhan, if we believed that he will win.   Obama is serving a clever purpose, to get Hillary out of  race, so that all whites, who still make the majority of the population will forget their differences, be it democrat  or republican, get  together and vote for their beloved white candidate, John McCain, and save us from the disgrace of having a woman or a black president.  If John Kerry becomes the candidate for Vice President, with republicans, de ja vu, as he had tried to rope in McCain in 2004, things should become very simple. Poor John Edwards, spoke too much against the corporations and bothered them with litigations. He would have befriended the affluent and powerful once elected, but got swayed in impressing the poor and the masses at the cost of the rich. This is why republicans are voting in huge numbers for Obama and against Clinton. The two parties are the same, which was amply proved by Bill Clinton’s period, and is being exemplified by George Bush’s government.  The two parties combine  to put up a great drama to  entertain and fool the public, and succeed very well at it. And the dream ticket of  a woman and a black will be even an easier kill for the conservatives. The ‘country is not ready for it’, but if Hillary does not put Obama on her ticket, the blacks may

mass-boycott the election, as their candidate with so much of votes and delegates was ignored, and  McCain reaps the benefit. On both counts, the clever ploy has put Hillary between a rock and a hard place.

Since I wrote this,  Hillary is already out. My comments were not published, as I am not a political Pundit, but a mere insurance agent, and should confine my thoughts to insurance. How about giving more popular votes to Obama, but more electoral college votes to McCain, and elect the latter as president, without any help of the supreme court judges ?
