Some political commentary, a little science & reviews on fast food and maybe a few songs! Got a problem with that? OK, so I'm an acquired taste...

It's crunch time America!
Don't get me wrong. I like President Obama and I know in his heart he is doing what he thinks is best for our Country! However, his record does not reflect the direction I think most Americans want to go. So perhaps it's time we craft ourselves a fresh start. That doesn't mean I want to see this country go to just one party, it means I want to see some people (on both sides of the isle) removed in favor of replacing them with forward thinking men and women whose first and foremost priority will be adherence to the Constitution and who have a great desire to work, not as Republicans or Democrats, but as Americans.
Secondly, I would like us all to get started on the real work that lies ahead; returning solvency and prosperity to the greatest Free Country in the World!

So, who won? Or actually, who cares?
Now that that the 2010 midterm elections will soon be history, the question becomes…what next? After millions of dollars have been spent by candidates on both sides… after they’ve invested a yearof campaigning and speech making… so what? I’ll make you a bet here and now that not a thing will have changed. I’ll also bet that during all those campaigns that ran for House, Senate and other seats promises were made and strings were attached. Thirty days from now you won’t even be able to tell there was an election as both sides will be right back a each others throats in the halls of congress while the Republic sinks ever further in a mire of debt and failed promises. Actually, that’s not a bet, it’s a fact.

Democrats and mainstream media now resorting to emotional appeals!
As the senate races in key states begins to heat up, it's amazing to watch the spectacle that the Democratic and Mainstream media are making of themselves as they are throwing everything, including the kitchen sink, at candidates they are either running against or don’t like.
Republican senatorial candidates Linda McMahon in Connecticut and Christine O'Donnell in Delaware have been the targets of increasingly accusatory comments by both far left zealots and by media outlets such as the Washington Post and the New York Times. Failing the ability to discuss actual issues (the Democrat's well has run dry on that score), they have resorted to comments like ‘loon’ (Washington Post) and ‘seedy’ (New York Times) when referring to these two female candidates. Surprisingly, few voters seem to be paying much attention to either as time winds down to Election Day.
The Democratic Party has suffered what many now feel is a mortal wound and could well fade from the political scene over the next few years. The extremist media is already fading as more and more voters are looking for the truth and not hype when it comes to who will be placed in positions of leadership. My thought. 'Bout time!

On November 3rd the job picture may improve.
It is no secret that perhaps a trillion or two is currently being held by companies all across America for fear of increased corporate taxes and the uncertainty that has been so much a part of a democratic majority in both houses.
I have to wonder, then on what positive effect might be had if and when on November the 2nd, the American people change the balance of power when elections sweep many new Republicans into office. This just might open the flood gates and begin to turn, what has been a nightmare around.
But, don’t misunderstand me. I am not a large fan of the Republican Party by any stretch. It’s just that right now I can see the benefit to moving the countries political profile a little over to the right. Such a move, however, will do nothing to cure the horrendous amount of corruption that exists on Capitol Hill.
I would encourage any thoughtful voter to forget about party allegiance this one time and vote only for first time Republican candidates. We need to purge the system of the crap that currently is plugging everything up. We need some fresh blood and with that transfusion, we need effective legislation to provide for term limits, a smaller federal government and a return of sovereignty to the states.
