I basically think that while the presidential election is important, it is still a gated race to determine who would be best to betray the majority of the American people. So I haven't written about it much (okay I haven't written much at all for about the past 4 months).
But I just had to say something about this Ohio radio ad from the Clinton campaign that is truly disgusting :
Here's the script:
"This is an election news update with a major news story reported by the AP. While Senator Obama has crisscrossed Ohio giving speeches attacking NAFTA, his top economic advisor was telling the Canadians that was all just political maneuvering. A newly released document from the Canadian government shows that Obama’s senior economic advisor met with the Canadian Consul General and made clear that Obama’s attack on NAFTA were just, quote, “political maneuvering,” not policy. Political maneuvering, not policy. In fact, the document shows that Obama’s advisor also assured the Canadians that these attacks against NAFTA would not continue. Obama would not want to be, quote, “fundamentally changing the agreement.” As Senator Obama was telling one story to Ohio, his campaign was telling a very different story to Canada. How will Ohioans decide whether they can believe Senator Obama’s words? We’ll find that out on election day. Paid for by Hillary Clinton for President."
Fake news reports, I wasn't aware the that Rove was on her payroll. Now I am waiting for push polling in Pennsylvania.
