Why The 2008 Presidential Race is the Best in Years!

Back in January of 2007, I commonly said the same thing over and over again; I'm already sick and tired of the 2008 Presidential Election. And frankly, who could blame me? For a country that basically brought Democracy back, we sure haven't come close to acting like it. We have one of the longest election processes in the world, and really, the talk about the 2008 race started two days before the 2004 race was over, with reports then that Clinton and Junior-Senator Obama would run for 2008.

So it is nothing short of amazing that 2008 has proven to be a banner-year for our lovely Republic!

Let's focus on the Media. Anyone who knows me knows this; I don't think the media sets up people to win and manipulates elections, I KNOW they do. And, more than ever, they have made it operant than ever this year. Despite nearly inaugurating Hillary Clinton before even the first vote or caucus was held, it seemed that they decided, not us, the voters, that Clinton was our new President. Then... Obama won. So what happened? What else! With less than 1/2 of 1% of Americans voted, 3 people dropped out of the race and Obama was declared the Democratic Front Runner.

On the Republican side, Huckabee, the man considered a joke and who could never win... did just that, beating out all the other front-runners. Instead of him being crowned Front Runner, the race was, and still is... "wide open."

New Hampshire, despite a media push for Obama, the voters of the state that will not be told how to vote (Because they are way too smart for that crap!) instead voted for Hillary Clinton. And the media, despite being proven wrong and idiotic for picking a front runner... continued to do the same exact damn thing for the rest of this election! And with less than 1/2 of 1% of Americans voting, another person or two dropped out.

Republican-wise, John McCain won and still no front runner. The odd thing getting lost in all of this, since the race was now being called "A delegate count" which, in essence, it ALWAYS is, Mitt Romney had been in the lead all along. Some states simply hand out delegates in back rooms like cash, something that... well, it isn't reported.

Nevada and South Carolina was yesterday, and in the dust that is settling, Hillary Clinton has now won 2 states, McCain has 2 states, and Mitt Romney won Nevada with 51% thanks to a large Mormon population. Ron Paul, my favorite and the only man who can save America, came in 2nd in Nevada with 14%. A notable accomplishment since... well, he came in SECOND. Hell, even Dennis Kuchinich lost to "UNCOMMITTED" in ever election and caucus!

In all of this, we are seeing INCREASED voter turnout in every state on almost both sides. Democrats are coming out in droves and, yes, the youth are voting!

Right now, Obama leads the Democrats at 38 Delegates, Clinton with 36, John Edwards at 18.

Mitt Romney leads the Republicans with a whopping 66 Delegates, John McCain at 38, Mike Huckabee with 26, and Ron Paul with 6.
