What I learned from the debate

Watching the debate last night (Oct. 7) the only thing that I really learned is that Barak Obama must be a prophet! He knew about the mortgage crisis 2 years ago! He know that Georgia (the country) was in danger from Russia last year! He told people and wrote papers about these!!!! He must be the second coming of Messiah!!! (OK - that one didn't come out in the debate, but listening to some Obama supporters there do seem to be some people who believe that.)

He must not have tried hard enough to make sure that people heard, though, because these things happened... Telling Washington insiders who helped make the mess that there is a mess isn't presidential caliber action. Raising up a grass-roots awareness of the problem and getting America involved in the solution is. (Neither candidate has done that though...)

The only thing that I really learned last night was that I'm not sure either of these two candidates really has a plan for resolving the problems that we face right now. I've said several times that any person who seeks public office should immediately be disqualified from that office. We need the right person in the presidency, not just the best person who happens to be running (and is electable, and popular with the people...).

(In case you missed the dripping sarcasm in the first paragraph, I haven't been converted, I'm still not voting for Obama...)
