Candidate of Change?
I questioned before if Obama was the real deal. If he's the candidate for change, why is his running mate Biden of all people? What a lame choice, talk about same-old politics.
"But he had to pick someone like Biden to help him get elected", I hear you saying. Please. Obama is just another politician, and getting elected and re-elected is all they are truly about. If Obama gets elected he will not be substantially different than any other president we've had in office for decades. If he really did try to shake up Washington, all his advisors - you know, the same ones that told him to pick Biden - would tell him he wouldn't get re-elected. So when push comes to shove, Obama won't make any real change if it endangers his re-election.
Still not convinced? Consider Obama's rhetoric before and after he had the nomination sewn up. He's moved to the right of his initial ideals by changing his mind on offshore drilling and the domestic spy bill just to name two examples.
Vote for whoever you like, it just doesn't really matter.
