The Campaign Battlefields

I am waiting patiently for the backlash that is going to smack Hillary down for the count after her attack techniques that are showing signs of desperation. I see the condition of the midwest decay post globalization involving all the outsourcing and post trade agreements that are not balanced nor fair, in even more devastating terms than how Obama phrased it. These citizens have been reduced to third world status right here in our midst. The majority of them hate the position they have had bestowed on them by a government totally dedicated to the corporations and the super wealthy. I think they will still view change much more probable by voting for Obama rather than Clinton. And I think they will also view a vote for him as one for better judgement and greater competence.

Clinton may have more allegiance to Burson/Marstellar and Mark Penn than her displacement of his campaign organization title purports to indicate. She and Bill have been developing their political machine for twenty-five plus years. And Penn is the poster boy.

Maybe someone should initiate a "tour third world USA" travel package. Just think where you could visit, capping it off with New Orleans. Huge areas of Appalachia, that would make a good fall feature, the autumn color spectacular equals that of New England but maybe go to both and get enough photo's to make miles of slide shows. The tour agent could feature visits with the resident unemployed the longest. Or a seminar on how to live after your unemployment benefits end. Or another in how to survive without medical services. Lots of options.

Or maybe a counter tour - urban poverty. Opportunities galore. And why not use old school buses for tour vehicles. Nostalgia. That always sells.

Does this sound bitter?
