It's OK to Cheer for Obama

I have a dirty secret to admit.

I want Barack Obama to win the democratic nomination.

Look, I think Barack would be a lousy president. And I think his nomination would result in a Republican defeat. And any sane, normal thinking person who knows what socialism holds for its people would be against his being president.

But it's OK to be cheering on what is ultimately the quintessential underdog. Because Hilary, quite frankly and quite truthfully, is evil. Quite literally the epitome of evil.

No, seriously she is.

NASA scientists and Harvard professors proved it in that big study she tried to bury;

"Hilary Clinton; Proof She is Evil. The Epitome Thereof"

And not only that, she is establishment evil. The spoiled brat daddy's girl who had her way paid through college, paid to study in Venice, and paid to just float on upper income coattails throughout life. Oh, and that whole thing of being married to a philandering president (while claiming she's a feminist too kind of thing), kind of puts the hip into hypocrisy.

So seriously, even though it is to the disadvantage of my desires, I cannot deny the truth that it would bring me some joy to see Hilary lose to Barack Obama. If for any other reason it would confirm to me that it is the people that have the power and not the established elite.

Furthermore, think of the quandry that would put the Democrats in. Their princess-entitled would lose to the first genuine black candidate. How could they possibly condemn his nomination? Additionally, think of the political clout and power Seniors Jackson and Sharpton would lose accusing Barack of not being black enough.

In any case, I do hope the Republicans can field a candidate that would bring the party back to its independent, low tax, freedom and choice roots, and one that could handily defeat Obama. But I would be lying if an Obama democratic presidential nominee wouldn't put a smile on my face.

I agree it would be the lesser of two evils to have Obama get the nomination over the Queen Bitch. Regardless, having a Dem back in the White House at this point in time would be an f'ing disaster for anyone without a socialist drum to beat or their greedy hands out!

Captain, do you really believe Obama would defeat the Republicans?

Some people I know are hoping he gets the nomination because they are confident he would lose.

I also have a friend who said that there is no way America is ready to elect a black man, or a woman, to the office of the President right now...(not that that is a good thing, but it could be the politically-incorrect truth, I don't know).

What say you (and other folks)?

It would be a much bigger blow personally to the Hillabeast to lose in the general election. Picture her ego and assumption of inevitability dashed upon the rocks of electoral reality.

Obama, on the other hand, being as new to the game as he is probably would take a defeat in stride and treat it as a lesson. That's not nearly as fun.
