Let Me Make One Thing Perfectly Clear
Normally I use this space to express my thoughts on major issues and leave it at that. But today I have to use this space for a point of clarification.
Lately I have been accused of being a shill for Barack Obama. What’s funny about that is that I’ve also been accused of being a shill for Mitch Daniels and Greg Ballard. I wish people would make up their minds sometime.
I think I need to remind people is I am not a pure journalist. I am an opinion writer. I express an opinion, that just happens to be more informed than 99-percent of the rest of the population, but it’s still an opinion.
And in my opinion, John McCain, who is a great guy who I have interviewed before, has run a bad campaign. Sorry folks, but it’s true. The irony of it all is that he is the only Republican who actually had a shot at winning in this anti-Republican climate. The Obama people out-campaigned the McCain people. That’s it. Ask any Republican insider in Indiana and they will tell you the same thing, they just won’t say it out loud.
Some of you people need to accept reality and move on. The political pendulum in this country swings back and forth about every eight years. This time it’s swinging in the Democrats direction. And by 2016, Republicans should have it back.
Deal with it. You will sleep better at night.
