Obama losing favor
Considering that McCain is running a lackluster campaign and that Obama just completed his “I am the world” tour, McCain should be seeing Obama’s taillights disappear over the horizon. Yet, Obama can’t seem to shake McCain.
The American people, or at least a very large population of people, are continuing to not find substance in Obama as the proverbial onion continues to be peeled. Remember, early on in a campaign the political types of both parties are paying attention, but as the campaign continues on, those non-political undecided voters begin to pay attention. These are the folks who Obama is not winning over, and McCain is becoming the default go to guy, for lack of anyone else being remotely viable.
So far, we have observed that Obama makes poor judgments in the choice of acquaintances, he can turn on an issue rapidly if he believes it is in his best political interest. He is an income redistributionist, and anti small business candidate, who prefers higher gas prices to force those “bitter” people to dump their trucks and SUV’s in favor of inefficient corn ethanol powered vehicles. He is against drilling as a means to achieve his vision of a fossil fuel free world, no matter how many people get hurt by this sudden lurch away from traditional fuel toward renewable fuel that is not ready to fully drive this nation.
His trip to Europe demonstrated who the French and the Germans like, but it is not a referendum for this country’s Presidency – our society is dramatically different than Europe.
Energy Independence Act ignored
Of great disappointment are Representatives in the House who voted to recess instead of attending to the great need to resolve the energy issues facing us! Obama offers to give each of us a $1,000 rebate of our own money if we vote him in. He should have been paying attentions to the bipartisan group of 23 Representatives in the House who proposed H.R. 6709, which is a very doable energy plan that makes sense – it should have been fast tracked.
I am surprised that the main stream media has not reported on this very large bi-partisan effort and that my Representative, Gabrielle Giffords, is not a co-sponsor. Further, incredulously, Congresswoman Giffords in support of Nancy Pelosi voted to go home for recess.
It should also be noted that a group of 10 bipartisan Senators are working on a similar plan. I guess drilling is not a hoax, as Pelosi has stated.

Iwould like this question posed to Mr Obama or Ms Pelosi during an on air interview,What they would do if and when Obama is President and all the Arab nations decide now is the time to cut off oil to the USA.This may sound like an unlikely scenario but it’s not.
During the first few months of a new Presidency there always seems to come a test by some nation to see any vulnerabilities within a new admisitration.
I wonder what pelosi’s or obama’s answers would be.
Think about it,what could they do?The answer is nothing.
We need the drilling and we need it now.
The Democrats will and have done anything to win the Presidential election including putting this Nation in peril.Believe me we are in trouble.
While Congress is on vacation,the enemy is plotting and planning their next move.
