The longer I watch/partcipate in politics the more I realize how much I ride along both sides of the aisle. This being said, I believe that both candidates for the next presedential election are terrible! As I was watching the town hall debate the other night I realized that neither have a clue on how to appeal to their targeted audience and would rather bicker with one another than prove to the citizens of the US as to why they are the ideal candidate. The targeted audience for Tuesday night was women, as most that were present at the debate and even in their own living rooms back home are more likely to ride the fence over which candidate to vote for. As the debate progressed the more and more Obama and Romney seemed to dig themselves a bigger and bigger grave. One of the biggest things that women hate and turn them off to people, mostly men, are bullies and Obamney (as the two shall be called) both proved to be one by constantly getting in one another's face and confronting one another in a disrespectful manner. Seriously?! If you know your target audience is women, which their campaign leaders and speech writers did, why would they badger one another and stick their heads up their a**?!
Obama lied Tuesday night, don't get me wrong Romney did as well, but it seemed that Obama had to rely on the moderator to at one point "bail" him out. And if those deceitful words flow from his mouth like honey, as they so eloquently did Tuesday night how am I to believe any other claims he has made over the past four years? President Obama was overly arrogant throughout the debate, leading to the demise of his argument. Most answers he beat around the bush, identifying the "weed" to the audience but not giving any instruction or demonstration of how he would deal with the so called "weed".
Romney did the same as well! "I have a 5 point plan!!" Ok, great, but what exactly is that 5 point plan of yours? Romney to say the least did play fair. I'm not saying that he has to best friends with Obama, which my prediction is is that they both play golf together and laugh at us "silly Americans" who get so heated about which side of the aisle you are from, but at least have some decency. Discussing the integrity of President Obama following the Benghazi attack was outright unnecessary and disrespectful. There are plenty of things I disagree with Mr. Obama about but I don't doubt his love for this country and that he holds the utmost respect for our troops and service men and women. This being said, Romney held no tact in his address to the president and often faultered in his argument making him seem less than educated about the issues and topics at hand. What message does this portray?
I'm not trying to sound biased, because honestly I don't like the idea of this country in the hands of either men but come November 6 it will have to be who will be the LEAST destructive to this country and economy.
May the best man win?
Joke of the day: The past, present, and future enter a bar together. It was tense! (cheesy, I know. I couldn't find any others!)
