Why Voting for Obama is a Mistake

[Vampyr]

I also liked how at the beginning of this race, Republicans were worried by the quesiton, "Is McCain conservative enough?" And he reassured them that he was, and he has slowly become more "conservative" sounding throughout the entire race, to appeal to the extreme type of voting that Bond indicated, and to win the votes of more Republicans.

Bond also stated that Bush wasn't truly conservative, due to his spending, and that he was a "neo-conservative". The ideas of being liberal and conservative are in the eye of the beholder. There is no such thing as "true conservative" and "new conservative". New conservative, by relativity, has become the true conservative. Elections are won and lost on moral grounds concerning abortion, homosexuality, and religion. The connotations of being conservative or liberal no long directly relate to finance, they relate to moral issues, which is what this debate will be either won or lost on. We would like to think it would be for other reasons, but it won't.

But there are enough important issues and topics that I agree with Obama on to keep me voting for him and not voting for McCain. I've read your criticisms of his arrogance and his youth and his inexperience. To this, I say I don't care. He brought about a revolution to a generation that had lost itself to apathy. This generation believes in him and his "pretty" speeches and his idea of change. If he fails to meet the standards they have set, they will be the first to burn him for it, because they're no longer apathetic, in part due to his own words.

Maybe the time has come for pretty speeches to be the winner of the day, maybe that is the change we need. I'm willing to take the chance.
