At least I was RIGHT

Yeah, I know.  Been forever since I have posted anything.  I've thought of a few things here and there, but just haven't taken the time to blog about them.  Continue to watch my shared items, though.  I usually have a decent amount of activity there.

Ok, so there was a scare or two when Rush Limbaugh decided to start "Operation Chaos", whereby he asked conservatives to register Democrat and vote for Hillary during the primaries.  But one of my predictions from this blog entry in February has effectively been fulfilled as of yesterday with Barak Obama sealing the Democrat nomination.

Rush had quite an impact on damaging both candidates.  For that I give him a lot of credit.  He also may have caused one of my other predictions to be wrong - I said that I didn't think Obama would offer Hillary VP and that she would never accept.  With all that has gone on since then, nothing would surprise me now.  They both have to do some damage control to keep the party united, and coming together as a team would help a lot.  Although I think Obama could pick someone else and end up getting more votes, it's hard to say what he will decide at this point.

But I still hold to my original prediction about our next president.  Obama is going to win.  He's shown himself as even more of a liberal than many originally thought.  But you know what?  So has McCain.  McCain is saying things to attract a constituency that HE CAN NOT WIN.  And he's driving conservatives even further away.  Read or listen to any conservative commentator and you will quickly find that none of them are excited about McCain.

At this point, I think it's going to be a landslide victory for Obama. We'll just have to see if he says or does anything that ruins his chances.  Keep in mind though that McCain is going to have a really hard time attacking Obama on anything, as any negative comments will be painted as being racist - no matter what they are about.  Obama has the media on his side more than Bill Clinton had them back in his heyday.

So yep, I was RIGHT.  But that doesn't exactly make me feel good at the moment.  At this point, I'm just going to pray that the conservatives that are left in Congress after November can make progress on lessening the impact of the crazy liberal bills that are going to flow through Congress over the next couple of years.  And then for REAL CONSERVATIVES to run and win in 2010.
