Early Election Results

I hope I'm wrong, but I really do think Obama is going to pull of this campaign-of-deception thingy and run off with this election. But I don't think he is going to win because of his eloquence (even though he essentially reads the phone book and people compose homages to him). I don't believe his political platforms will win him the election (since his political platforms are entirely socialist). I think Obama will walk away with the title of el presidente because of one reason:

The American people are extremely, incredibly, annoyingly, unbelievably, unequivocally stupid.

The more polls I see come out these last fews days before the election, the more confident I am in my reasoning that stupidity will put Obama in office. Pure, unadulterated idiocy. That's it. End game.

What we have here is essentially a kindergarten class. The American people are the kindergartners. Obama and McCain are the instructors. McCain (representing Republicans) has been the teacher for the past 8 years, with typical ups and downs, and now the students are interviewing the next instructor. Obama comes in: young, exuberant, and fresh. Obama promises the kindergartners that they will get lots of candy if he becomes their new teacher. McCain tells the kindergartners that with him, they will get a better education in the long run. Whom do the kindergartners predictably choose? The candy candidate, of course. The kindergartners choose the candidate who promises to fulfill their immediate, hedonistic desires without regard for the longterm outlook. Children tend not to have rational, critical analysis abilities in regards to their own futures. Children want what sounds best for their limited reasoning abilities, which in this case is candy.

So, yes, in reality, I am comparing the American people to a bunch of kindergartners. At least, the ones voting for Obama.

Now you know how the rest of us felt in 2004. I believe we were all called "elitists" for that viewpoint. So how does that shoe fit?

So you're one of the ignorant masses? Yeah, 2004 must have really hurt knowing that douchebag Kerry didn't win. He was a total joke. I don't know how you took him seriously.
