First, I want to say that I tended to agree with CNN’s Jeffery Toobin, that McCain’s speech was bad, and as I watched my mother, a life long democrat, sob during his speech, I thought it must be because the speech stinks, not the story, but the delivery was just bad, but that was my opinion.

The reality is that I think McCain reached people that are continually ignored by the fast paced, slick media of today, older people.  People who heard McCain’s speech and thought that McCain was, as one web site states, that they connect with John McCain in that:

in their hearts they believe that the United States Constitution, it’s government, the aura of every American form a secular religion “just under God” for the good of all mankind as the Pledge of Allegiance speaks of.
America has it’s holy of holies in the White House, Capitol and Supreme Court. America has it’s commandments in the Constitution. America has it’s temples in Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln. America has it’s icons of the Statue of Liberty and Mount Rushmore

And I do think that John McCain believes in America, and that the people around him believe in America, and I think we all know that Obama has people very close to him that don’t seem to believe in America, in spite of making over 300K a year.

Heck now there are even McCain haters who say that they support McCain.  That McCain is going to bring real change, blah, blah, blah.  I don’t question that McCain has more dedication to America than Obama, and if voting for someone better than Obama is the only criteria you have, then McCain would do (heck lot’s of people would do).

Now, many people argue that voting for McCain now will help the Republican party in the future.  Maybe yes, maybe no, but what about America now?  How have the McCain campaign treated Republicans at the convention who had some differences?

Well, apparently the McCain people had the Secret Service go to the Ron Paul delegates and had them searched and seized their dvds and buttons about Ron Paul.   Now these were delegates that were elected by the people, and went to represent vote for Ron Paul at the convention.  And sadly even though the Ron Paul delegates voted for Ron Paul, and their votes were supposed to count, they were discarded.

This is what the McCain people believe in, tyranny.  McCain might be espousing something different now, but Ronald Reagan claimed to want to get rid of the IRS, and he really didn’t accomplish much on that.  Maybe the McCain people were upset that Ron Paul had a rally that was bigger than their 60+ million dollar tax payer funded rally, just across the river (even though the media censored it, interviewing people like former Governor Jesse Ventura, and then never airing the interviews).  So what, why is it okay to take away votes from someone just because you are jealous?

As far as I know, McCain still believes in the Manmade Global Warming nonsense, even though:

1. The Artic has had a massive gain in Ice Coverage
2. There are ice storms in Kenya, and China has had it’s coldest winter in 100 years!
3. 3 Million years ago, Anartica had a massive forest
4. The whole solar system was heating up for a while

Personally I get the feeling that while McCain might believe in America, he is willing to do whatever his advisors push for.   I think the result will be worse than the mistakes Reagan made.  And John Kerry has been reported as saying:

Talk about being for it before you’re against it. To those who still believe in the myth of a maverick instead of the reality of a politician, I say, let’s compare Senator McCain to candidate McCain. Let me tell you, before he ever debates Barack Obama, John McCain should finish the debate with himself.

Basically the new talking point is that McCain is flip flopping around, saying and doing whatever it takes to get elected, while still have the same “Black Hats” to enforce the rules of the Empire.  In other words, think about the Star Wars movies, it’s not what they say publicly, it’s what they actually do.

Of course that goes both ways, while the Democrats have claimed that they are somehow “less” negative, the truth is that Obama made SEVEN times more negative comments about McCain, than the “attack dog” Sarah Palin did in their respective speeches.  But don’t let that stop you from voting for Obama, I am just saying that Democrats will get lauded in the press, no matter what they do.

Now according to polls (Rasmussen, Gallup), McCain is still behind Obama, and I think that is a good thing, because with Obama, at least people shouldn’t be surprised when they get screwed.
