I won't get into specifics for this post, but I will say this. It was the most demoralizing of the debates. Hillarah has likely succeeded in making Obama a candidate vs. a candidate + a movement.
The question for us, however, and I don't feel as if I'm exaggerating, is this: Do we want a candidate and a president who will distort, vilify, lie, slander, manipulate, and coerce to win? A person who's personal ambition to become president is so strong that she will put it above her party and her country--truth be damned. A person who will attempt to destroy the strongest candidate her party has had in decades to fulfill this personal ambition. In other words, a person who will embrace a policy of "ends justify the means" that is normally ascribed to the worst tyrants and despots of history. Do we really want that? And to see her husband, a former president, help facilitate this...it's just so vulgar and depressing.
I still think Obama can win, but odds are starting to line up against him. If Hillarah goes on to win, I will vote for Hillarah over Huckabee, but no one else.
