It's funny. When I first started this blog a year ago it was with the idea that I would post all my problem hands from every poker session and hope people gave me advice. That failed very quickly. I then started using it to track results and thoughts and swings and so on (basically what everyone else does). Then the primaries started and I tentatively started blogging about politics. I figured I'd get nothing but negative comments and people would probably just ignore it, cause, this is a poker site not a political one!
Well I was right. At first the only people commenting were people who thought I was stupid, or people who said "who cares?". But I kept posting cause for me, it was a way to prevent my head from exploding. I see all these crazy things, and sometimes good things, and I just need to vent about it. So I run to my blog and throw it down. Sometimes I get views/comments, others it's ignored. Lately there's been a lot more interest though, and a lot more support, so thank you guys for that =)
Anyway, this blog post is titled "This is why" and the end of that sentence is "I support Obama". I've already made a post like this, but I gotta do it again cause Obama has put out another positive ad focusing on the issues and his plan to solve the problems we face, while the Republicans are trying to politicize the bail-out bill that McCain supports and use it against Obama... Two very different approaches to this campaign and Obama's approach impresses me so much more than McCain's.

Obama Campaign Statement:
| | "For John McCain's party to demagogue a rescue plan that he supports in order to score cheap political points is not only dishonest and dishonorable, it is the height of irresponsibility on a day when we urgently need to pass that plan to prevent an economic catastrophe. So much for country first," said Obama-Biden spokesman Bill Burton. |
