The Day After

There were several reasons for the Socialist victory. First was the economic situation. It scared a lot of people. The MSM was playing it up big, convincing enough people that they were about to loose their house. And the perception was that Obama will pay off their house note.

The second reason was that McCain was a horrible candidate. He was sinking fast until he picked Sarah Palin as a running mate. This put some energy into the Republican base. But McCain didn't have any fight in him until it was too late. Palin was great. But few if any people decide because of the running mate.

Obama was able to present himself (with the help of the MSM) to present himself as anything people wanted him to be. He was able to hide the fact that he hates America and all it stands for.
And the Media has to take a big part of this Obama win. They were clearly in the tank for Obama as soon as it was clear that Hillary was going to loose the primary. They deliberately hid any damning evidence against Obama. The most notable instance of this is the infamous LA Times video.

I predict that it wont be very long until the disillusionment begins. Obama will not be able to be every thing to everybody. He will raise taxes across the board. Transfer money to those who don’t pay taxes, make energy less available and more expensive, and surrender to our enemies.
He will also abandon our only true ally in the Middle East, Israel.
I can see a replay of the 1994 mid term elections when the Republican Party took over both the House and Senate. If Obama gets half the programs he wants, the economy will tank like it did in the 70’s.

We are in for a rough few years. But I see a REAL conservative arising from the ashes of this election. It may be Sarah Palin!
