After last night’s final presidential debate, I have resigned myself to accepting the fact that Barack Obama will likely be our next President. I don’t like it, but I fear that its inevitable. I still have problems:

(1) As overrun as the point may be, he still doesn’t have the experience. Its just the truth. I like governors more than senators for president, so I guess I’m out of luck this cycle. But an inexperienced senator is right at the bottom of my list.
(2) The liberal health care agenda is dumb, and I’ll never support it. If they try to establish universal health care like Hillary was pushing, they’re gonna meet their first “See I told you that idea was dumb” mistake from the Republicans.
(3) He is smug, sensationalized, unqualified, and consisting of little more than fluff. Unfortunately, he’s also charismatic, young, decent-looking (I guess), and a great speaker. Its pretty obvious what people value.
(4) “Change” is a good platform, I guess, but the kinds of change that the left is pushing is like going from, well, white to black (pun intended). I agree that the system now doesn’t work, but to change it 180 degrees might have a few more growing pains than the granola-eating, electric-car driving left wants to admit.

I don’t know if John McCain would be a better president than Obama, but I’m scared enough of government to say yes. I will still vote McCain, but after these debates, I fear it won’t make a difference. Obama’s lead in swing states is over the margin of error; in some cases, WAY over the margin. Without Pennsylvania, Colorado, Florida, and Ohio, McCain is dead in the water. So on election night, I’m going to kick back, have a steak and a beer, and enjoy spending my own money the way I want to for the last time for four (eight?… ugh…) years.

I, for one, welcome our new Socialist overlords.
