EMPATHY

I keep having a new feeling every 30 minutes, which means a new blog post. I just re-watched McCain's original campaign ad, and I started to get choked up. When he said, "I owe America more than she has ever owed me," I just got this catch in my heart for him. He deserved to become President, far more than Obama did. I think he sought the office for all the right reasons. I feel sorry for him, and I feel disappointed that 52% of American voters didn't see what seems blatantly obvious to me.

Sarah, I’m not sure I’ve ever agreed with you more.

As much as I personally feel bad about the election, I feel horrible for Sen. McCain. He absolutely deserved it over someone the likes of Obama.

And I’m also disappointed that I won’t be able to gaze at the lovely Cindy as our first lady.

As much as I hoped and prayed for a McCain win I never feel that someone deserves to be president. If that were the case Hillary would have had her Democratic nomination. And yes, he has done much to EARN our trust in him to be president and I feel horrible for him, too. I do think he just was not animated enough most of the time and that he tried to be too much of a gentleman to be respected. And in spite of all I think the election turned on the Hate Bush vote, not even the financial stuff so there was never really much hope for a Republican.
