27 Days til?

I have been on the road for the last five days and my haven't they been a show. This is a meltdown of a lifetime and a wild ride it has been. I hope that if things solidify, that I never see their likes again.

I have been in Miami, staying in a five star resort and if the service I had there is any indication of what the rest of the US is providing, no wonder we are having a meltdown. It seemed like they were doing me a favor, anytime I needed anything it was a hassle. They only had one key to the mail room, and the person working there was never in, I had to have my card key replaced daily and had to play twenty questions if I didn't have my ID. Now, I don't know about you but I don't usually take my ID to the ice machine or to workout so it was very inconvenient to not be able to get in my room to get my ID to get a new key. There was a ton of work going on, over $1 billion in renovations and I can promise you, that without and apology, they won't get my bucks to help pay for it.

On to politics. Is Sen. McCain senile or does he truly not get what is happening to us? The markets are in a total meltdown and all he and Sarah "I sent my hubby to tell those mean ole legislators in Alaska to leave me alone, I ain't answering any of their stinkin questions"Palin can do is drudge up the past of Sen. Obama. I don't give a rats a** about William Beyers. I also don't care that Sen, McCain has a large supporter that set up the foundation where Sen. Obama and Beyers met.
These are non-issues. What I care about is that the market is 40% off its high, jobs are melting faster than butter and my 401K is dwindling as we speak. The government needs to respond to the peoples needs. Not support us but give us hope and the ability to pursue happiness. I can tell you that happy is not where I am today and I can't see a 72 year old that can't even control his supporters to lead us back to the promised land.
