My 3cents (1 cent per thought) on the American Elections:
- Obama should have delivered a more consistent message. Change is a good premise but change to? Very inconsistent messages. Change education, reform, war on Iraq, etc. People just got confused. Clinton (the dude) delivered his acceptance speech at the democratic nominations with the phrase “building a bridge to the 21st century” about 29 times. When the democrats there were asked what their takeout was, unsuprisingly, it was Bill building his bridge to the 21st century. Bill hammered that nail in, slowly, but surely through out his presidential campaign. Obama should take a leaf out of that man’s speeches. (And maybe steal his speech writer)
- I’m not sure about this but if Obama wins, I’m guessing that it was more to McCain losing than him winning. The brother is impressive but he still failed to impress me for the long-term. His hearts in the right place but for a black man, he be a wee bit green.
- If McCain wins, there is a 1 in 3 chance that Sarah Palin might be President of the United States of America. God bless us all if that comes true.
On a lighter note, I have been stealing borrowing Stuff & EPL The Economist from the clients’ place rather than buying it myself. It’s one of my tightening up the belt strategy.
What? Don’t judge me, they don’t read it anyway & they get it for free!
