Giuliani and Edwards drop out
Thank goodness Edwards is officially out. I didn’t think he could win, but as I said in a previous post, he a deceitful, despicable human being who should not even be considered for running the country.
Giuliani dropped out after coming in a distant 3rd in his first actual attempt in the primaries in Florida. Turns out he’s endorsing McCain. McCain is a nice (also hilarious) guy, and I admire his war service, but he is a liberal on many issues. The McCain/Feingold Act restricts ads within 30 days of a primary or 60 days from an election (actually this isn’t liberal, as most liberals support free speech; it’s even worse than liberal). McCain tried to get the amnesty bill passed recently. Here’s a quote from tonight’s debate: “I think there’s some greedy people on Wall Street that perhaps need to be punished.” If this doesn’t make you shudder, you’re either ignorant about capitalism, or you’re against capitalism. He is NOT a conservative by any stretch of the imagination except maybe on defense.
I think McCain will have trouble beating Hillary/Obama. Even if he does, I’m not sure there will be much of a difference.
