Enough Is Enough

I suggest it is time the leaders of the democratic party wade into these campaign which is gradually turning into a free-for-all. It was actually 'fun' at first but it is starting to get really rough and uninteresting. For the good of the party come November, enough is enough.

I thought campaigns should be about trying to lure voters to your side, not accusations and counter-accusations as we have seen in recent weeks. Of what good is it to the American people if Clinton refuses to make her tax payments public (of which she claims she has, and Obama hasn't), or if Obama's pastor maintains extreme views about racism. This is coming at a time when Americans can barely keep their house, pay for fuel and keep themselves going. This could certainly hurt the emerging democratic candidate if adequate care is not taken.

Believe it or not Senator McCain is doing what a serious minded White House aspirant should be doing by going to Iraq at a time like this. He has shown that the president should be someone who can take a firm stand on issues, just as he has done on his popular position on Iraq. In my opinion he has scored more points than either Clinton of Obama.

It high time they both stop whining.
