We are now a few days away from the election and it appears that Obama will have more than enough electoral votes to win. This leave me wondering why?
I think the main reason is the Iraq war. Many Americans, myself included, we scared into thinking it was a good idea to take out Saddam because of WMDs. This turned out to be largely bogus. This left Democrats pissed off and many Republicans just wanting Bush to go away. I think John McCain hitched himself to Bush's wagon on this issue, so there is relatively little excitement for him.
On the other hand, Obama was against Iraq from the beginning and vows to leave. If that is your biggest issue, then your decision is easy.
I'm not sure I understand what gets people gets excited about Barack Obama. He speaks well, but his ideas aremostly bad. He talks about change and then voted for Telecomm immunity this summer after saying he was against for a long time.
At least Hillary won't be president.
