Dear friends: ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ With anti-war sentiment being so wide-spread in the greater American public, I would have thought that McCain had very little, if any, chance of winning the Primaries. Didn’t you think the same thing? I am sure you did. Yet look at what has happened. Given his pro-war position, how did McCain end up in the lead in the Republican circles? C’mon, don’t tell me that most Republicans are pro-war, even if some ignorant ones among them are for it. Please let’s not exaggerate the negatives in our own minds, and please let’s do give people the credit which they deserve. Then of course Ron Paul and Obama signs are to be seen everywhere, at least in California. How about in your area of the country? And while Ron Paul broke fundraising records in the last few months, with large crowds attending his meetings, he still is reported as being at the bottom of the pile. Why? Ditto as regards Edwards. He stood against the purchasing of public policy, and guess what happened? Out he went. Okay, this happens on occasion. But when the patterns are obviously clear---in this case, standing for civil liberties and against corporate hijacking of an entire nation----and when those very clear patterns seem to qualify for being ousted from Debates and the Candidacy itself----then we have to suspect that a deliberate plan is in the works. Enter two apparently chosen Democratic Candidates, Obama and Clinton, both of whom may likely be discredited by the “other side”. Clinton has too much baggage, and the witchhunt for the Clintons continues. That is obvious: Why else would they publicly dub Bill Clinton as a temperamental “case” and ask pointed questions of Hillary about it? Drumroll….game over! As the pro-war, pro-corporation Candidate of power-supporting inclinations, McCain is hoisted up to the throne. The only way they could “legitimately” get McCain in there would be by manipulating public opinion. Because as public sentiment goes, so go the polls. Or at least, that is what the polls claim. And as the polls go, so go the votes. Or, at least, that is what the Registrar of Voters will claim.
