Franken
I have been berating Minnesota about voting for Al Franken but I must confess Iowa is even worse. Being The First in the Nation”, with the Iowa Caucus, we voted for and endorsed Barrack Obama as President. Iowa has become a predictor in identifying the top three candidates from both parties. The Iowa Caucuses have become more of a clearing field in determining which candidates will stay in the race and which candidates will throw in the towel. Iowa does play a big part in allowing candidates a chance to showcase their political prowess to a fairly middle of the road state. ( see Iowa caucus results 2008.com ) We could have voted for John Edwards or Hillary Clinton…..but no-o-o-o-o, we went for Obama. Then during the general election Iowa went for Obama again. (for the record, my county, where I was a precinct captain, went for McCain) I guess we’re not smarter than Minnesotans. In fact we owe the whole country an apology. What were we thinking?? Franken is still dumber than dirt but we have egg on our face also.

I think there are a lot of people questioning their vote. They have yet to see the "Hope and Change" they were promised.
ReplyDeleteAt least some of us are smart enough to detect snake oil a mile away and knew it was never to be.
If you get a chance read "A slobbering Love Affair" by Bernard Goldgerg. Very Interesting, very fustrating, an easy read (175 pages double spaced). The fix was in!!!!
