Evening,
Unlike the DNC in Denver, Colorado last week, when I watched a lot of the coverage on BBC Parliament, I haven't watched any part of the Republican Convention in St Paul, Minnesota.
With good reason.
It is accepted, certainly outside the USA, that Senator Obama feels much more Presidential than McCain, more of a leader than the Senator from Arizona and therefore leader of the Free World.
That is what America believes in, isn't it? The international policeman, sorting out the world's problems.
Interesting, then that by the rhetoric of McCain's Vice-Presidential candidate Sarah Palin, whose speech, from what I gathered to be nothing short of diatribe against the liberal media, and by extension the rest of the world.
There was a certain whiff of xenophobia and playing on people's fears in both Palin'd and McCain's speeches these past few days.
Surely they cannot win, that would be unthinkable for the world and particularly for the poor people who the Republicans do not give a fuck about.
Sure they give a damn about whilst you're still in your mother's womb, but once you're out, you are on your own.
Vote Obama.
For All Our Sakes.
