hillary is starting to make ads for obama

i just saw this new hillary campaign video that she is airing in indiana: 

what i find amazing is that she thinks that what she is doing is good!!

let’s start with the forclosures, yes she is suggesting bailing people who made wrong investments out of them. and in part that is an ok policy. but she was a senator in the stupid build up to the current economic mess, if she is so ready to be president, why didn’t she do something earlier? why didn’t she suggest more rigid lending laws two or three years ago? no back then she was missing in action, and now she wants to use tax payer money to bail out poor investment decisions by individuals and by financial institutions. 

what is most amazing though is her stupid idea to freeze gas tax over the summer. what good does this do? nothing. all it will do is reduce the money the government has to repair the already crumblin infrastructure in this country and will make people use their cars more. let’s get this country to accept that gas prices will be high. why? because there is a limited amount of it and there are now more people who want it. so let’s swallow the bitter pill and get this country into the 21st century. 

obama rightly says no to her two initiatives, because he wants to put an end to this reactionary, populist policy making and wants to bring us back to a sane model … which will be painful for all (likely include tax increases) because over the last 20 years the country has been living above its means. so in the end this ad just shows how short sighted hillary is (she will do anything just to win votes).

what is hillary’s problem? why can’t she say it is over?

i can’t imaging what celebrations must be going on at the mccain’s and the republican party’s headquarters. there they are, an unpopular war which is going nowhere and an economy that is tanking, and a presidential candidate that is the lapdog of the president that has gotten us all into that situation. but, there is a good chance they can win the election. why? because of hillary.because one person in the democratic party thinks that it is ok to keep on running in the primary despite the fact that she will not have enough votes in the end. all along she is discrediting her opponent to a degree that it is helping the republicans while at the same time pissing off voters that would love to vote for the democratic party (but will probably not do so if she gets elected). there is a time when one has to have the guts and the poise to say “this is it, i concede, i gave it all, but in the end the other one won.” especially at a time when you are not even fighting the other team, you are just fighting who will be the head of your own team. i find that hillary’s behavior right now just shows how unelectable she is. the thing she is solely focused on is power. it is not what is better for her party, it is not what is better for her country.  it is only about what is better for her. and i am sorry, but i seen too many presidents over the last 20 years that fit that profile.so to all those people that gave money to hillary (and might still be giving money to her) please stop, send her an email instead and ask her to concede. or take the blame when next january mccain will stand on the stairs of the capitol and be sworn in to be the next president.
