Left And Right Politics

It’s amazing that this country’s economy is in dire straits and all the Congress can do is talk. Forty minutes ago Nancy (I’m god-like) Pelosi took the floor to speak and all she could say was to lie blame to the Bush administration and how the house has re-written the bill to look as good as it can get thanks to the Democrats.

Now one would think that after the Speaker Of The House was finished talking, they would get down and get the vote taken, but no, it’s become a freight train of politicians after another looking for face time to look good for the upcoming election.

Congress was to be adjoined this week for the members to go out and feed more bullshit to their people so they can get re-elected. What a shame that the American people have to go through this.

While this is going on Wall Street has held steady to see what the vote will be, but before it held steady it dropped over 300 points and now sits at 255 point down so far today.

I will be looking at this for the rest of the day to see what the vote will bring. First we need to wait until the members of Congress get tired.

SHUT UP AND VOTE ALREADY!!!

As Obama and McCain battle for the Hispanic vote, a leading Latino backer of Hillary Clinton is crossing party lines to support the Republican presidential nominee.

In an interview Thursday, Miguel D. Lausell, a Puerto Rican businessman and longtime Democratic activist and fund-raiser, came out for Sen. McCain. While he said he doesn’t agree with all the policy positions of the Republican candidate and his running mate, Sarah Palin, Mr. Lausell added: “I find McCain to be a sound person and a man with a track record. I know where he is coming from.” Mr. Lausell had been a major backer of Bill Clinton and served as a senior political adviser to Sen. Clinton’s unsuccessful bid this year for the Democratic presidential nomination.

Mr. Lausell said he feels Sen. Obama “doesn’t really regard the Hispanic community as important.” Sen. Clinton won a large majority of the Hispanic vote in most primaries, and Latino voters are an important bloc in swing states such as Florida, Nevada and New Mexico.

Earlier this week, another prominent Clinton supporter, Lynn Forester de Rothschild, declared for the Republican nominee. Other former Clinton backers may be declaring for Sen. McCain in the days ahead, according to someone familiar with the situation.

Public-opinion polls in recent weeks also show that a potentially significant minority of Clinton voters from the primaries still haven’t decided whether to vote for Sen. Obama. If the Democratic nominee loses a large number of Clinton voters, it could prove crucial in a close presidential race.

A spokesman for Sen. Obama declined to comment on the move of some Clinton backers to the McCain camp.

Mr. Lausell cited several objections he has with Sen. Obama. “The U.S. is in a very difficult situation these days and I don’t want someone without experience at the helm,” he said. Mr. Lausell said he likes Delaware Sen. Joe Biden, but felt that if Sen. Obama was going to reach inside of Washington for a vice presidential running mate, he should have chosen Sen. Clinton, “who received 18 million votes” during the presidential primaries.
