LAST WEEK BEFORE THE US ELECTIONS

Last call for the last week!
The disgruntled faces seen here are from donkeydish.com ^_^

I and countless people around the world awaits Uncle Sam to decide who'll win in the up coming elections. The impact of votes by Americans will greatly affect the economical and political conditions around the globe. The issue over economy has been deliberated over and over again and I'm not discounting the fact that this is really a BIG thing to be concerned with... though there are other ones that should have been dealt with so these repercussion and preposterous results do not happen. Large percentages are already lost and they should have invested more time in business confidence rather than bailing out banks. I think people really didn't know how this started... but really because of a few greedy people (which comprised of board members of these banks) that had GIGANTIC amounts of bonuses and living "la vida loca" today, the whole economy of the US is at stake. They earned a lot but since the credit and lending became too volatile when they left it, a recession is about to occur. This is what is at the drawing table both on McCain and Obama's camps... if a miracle happened, then this would not be a problem anymore for millions who invested in the US economy.

Seems to me that Obama is leading. Last time I read the news, almost 8 states that were originally solid for Bush went to the side of Obama. This is a huge mistake on McCain for not maintaining these states where electorates were even high. I'm so sorry but I think Obama is gonna be the first black president. You can probably quote me on this a day before if the double digit lead doesn't change lolz! McCain still however has a week left to change these undecided votes to his camp.. but did you see the CNN debate where Obama still fared better among neutral voters at that time? Most probably, it won't be a showdown on the 4th of November. It would be a massacre!

DANCE IT OFF! ^_^

The Final Debate : Obama VS McCain

They go separate ways after 16 days...US Elections getting bigger by the minute!

It's officially 16 days before people in the US decide who leads the most powerful nation on earth (i think!) and have I been impressed? Ahm... not exactly. I watched the last debate about the US economy. The run I made in the treadmill in the gym seems long, I see lots of talk... and their plans? I just wish those work out... they've got nowhere else to go and no choice between the lesser of the two evils (lolz pardon the language, just jokin!)... I know people who think that way though.

I don't get the fuzz about Joe the plumber though... well, he's like the modern day american who would get his standard of living affected in the change on the tax structure the US is trying to implement together with the bailout package. He and the middle class people in the US who try so hard to make a living and now face poverty in the midst of the crisis. I just hope he doesn't get to conditions in the Philippines where IF you say you are POOR, you won't get a decent meal 3x a day... well that, or no meal at all. In the debate, I saw McCain leading in papers. But charisma should play a big role in this campaign... his composure helped this senator Obama (from Illinois) a lot... substance is okay, but anybody would be afraid about this showing, McCain might not win this one IMHO...

I and about billions of people around the world will just wait who to call Mr. President in a couple of days. The Red states are getting bluer and bluer by the minute. While McCain tries to get the Red states stay Red... a lot are at's stake in this election. Colin Powell btw just recently endorsed Obama. This election will not just affect the US, it will have an impact on the rest of the globe. Filipinos included! ^_^

Who do you think will win after hearing em this last debate? How about the election? ^_^ Thanks for your comments!

The Biden - Palin Vice Presidential Debate ; Aftermath

Biden and Palin shake it away with all that teeth!

Well after four scores and a few years ago, there has not been any Vice Presidential debates on the tube. I was one of the millions of people who stood by the gym [Hiya Fitness First! (^_^) ] and watched the Biden - Palin head to head combat a while ago and one thing for sure happened, I kinda noticed people changed minds over Palin.

I like that part where she said, "CAN I CALL YOU JOE!?" lolz..

Of course Biden won this overwhelmingly, he stood by attacks to McCain instead of Palin directly (well yeah because he might have thought that would be a better choice to bash who!) and you know what happened? Palin also painstakingly attacked Obama's platforms as well. Something similar but not quite, Biden has proven his point and clearly won this round. The deal with Palin though is that she really exceeded expectations, not just of her own party but of the Democrats as well. I'm not saying the said expectations were HIGH... I'm just saying that some people said things before hand but they somewhat thought she had something to put on the table after this debate. The inexperience showed, but the charm may have had wonders for her. Iraq and the economy was mostly what was talked about... they sought to murder McCain and Obama's plan of action. In my honest opinion, nobody succeeded. Sen. Joe Biden even gave restraint in his performance on Thursday night's vice presidential debate (he could have done more but maybe he thought he did not need to), while Gov. Sarah Palin tried so hard show that her accomplishments as governor and mayor prove she is qualified for the job. I hope this turns out to be a close fight between the Republicans and Democrats come the day of election. US really is one example of a working democracy. How I wish politics at home turn out this way also, stick to politics and get real (not to undermine not making it a business!).

OBAMA - BIDEN, McCAIN - PALIN ; Who will win? ----m(O_O)m---

Will it be Obama and Biden?

Or McCain and Palin? You choose!

Here's my 2 cents on the candidates for the US Presidential race... between the Democrats and the Republicans I will put my chips on the Democrats... Obama and Biden had the most comprehensive and complete package AFAIK. Obama getting internal country matters taken cared of with Biden getting the job with his large experience on foreign policy. Popularity wise they are ahead of the pack. We call people like McCain traditional politicians (TRAPO) here locally. Trapo means "rag" btw and is a monicker given to old politicians that stayed too long in the government... it also may or may not be good to be associated with the current regime of current President George Bush...it is also not a good term to be stricken with.

McCain also chose an inexperienced running mate that knows 0% on foreign policies and can affect the outlook on their party. I just hope women votes from the undecided Hillary Clinton supporters would go her way. That's a big IF btw.

With the recent developments on Hillary's speech during the Democratic convention that pushed for the support on Obama's candidacy, it's more likely that they (including hispanics, other ethnic groups) would still stick to Democrats... But they will be given the hard task of getting these undecided ones on their side. It is hard because Obama of course had given his remarks on Hillary previously that may be well detremental to his ticket. McCain in the upcoming Republican Convention would take advantage of this and try to woo Hillary supporters to his side. With all that and Oprah, I'd say I will still put my 2 cents on Obama and the Democratic Party. Watch the African American guy get to the Whitehouse come election day.
