John McCain is apt to come out on top this November in the presidential election. You wouldn’t know that he has a chance to win by reading anything else in the media. Thank goodness, we bloggers have a voice.

Reason 1 – John McCain has suspended his campaign to help push the bailout plan. Gosh, a congressman who works. What a novelty.

Reason 2 – Barak is playing catch up to McCain giving consideration to halting his crazy money raising/spending activities, too.

Reason 3 – McCain believes something needs to be done to combat global warming. I might add, that none of these two reasons so far are why I would vote for him. The bailout seems ridiculous and global climate change is not something we can fight..unless he means educating the world on being better stewards of the planet. I believe in treating our planet better.

Reason 4 – Palin is his running mate. I caught a glimpse of a CNN report the other morning that was criticizing McCain for his choice of Palin because she does not buy into all the human caused global climate change hype. I don’t see this as a point to criticize at all. If McCain and Palin thought exactly alike, why would we need both of them?

McCain does not think of himself first, he works, he leads, and even he’s not always right, he know how to listen or least choose team members who are not yes-people. That’s why he’ll win.

Barak Obama has accused the McCain/Palin campaign of being the equivalent of putting “lipstick on a pig.”

This statement doesn’t make GreenPacks angry because it’s sexist, or because it is an avert swipe at the only candidate in the final four to wear lipstick.

It doesn’t make GP angry because the slur is derogatory and the equivalent of mudslinging. Isn’t that what pigs do

It doesn’t make GP angry because Obama has to borrow a phrase he may have never used before in his Harvard educated life just to try to be funny or make a point. Is ‘lipstick on a pig’ really the best Obama can come up with?

No, it makes GreenPacks angry because Obama is insinuating that a pig would have anything to do with politics. We love animals here at Greenpacks, even porkers. And the worst thing I ever heard a pig say about another pig was, “that’s like putting mud lipstick on a politician. It’s still a politician.” You can tell, because the potlickers are all dirty.

And as one famous pig, that would be Porky, might say with regard to Obama’s campaign, “Th, th, that’s all folks.” Obama hasn’t got much left.
