CNN's Campbell Brown Comments

CNN's Campbell Brown comments on Senator Obama decision not to take public financing.
She quotes:
"One year ago, he made a promise. He pledged to accept public financing and to work with the Republican nominee to ensure that they both operated within those limits.
Then it became clear to Sen. Obama and his campaign that he was going to be able to raise on his own far more cash than he would get with public financing. So Obama went back on his word."

BACK ON HIS WORD?

My sister called me today and invited me to a Halloween party this Thursday PM. I said yes of course. Later, I realized that my 7 yr old son has a tee-ball game that same night, so I called her back to cancel. Did I go back on my word?
No, after having time to think, I made a decision not to attend the party. I felt like it was in my best interest to cancel.

Six months ago, I booked a cruise to the Bahamas for me and my wife. A few weeks ago I decided to cancel and get a refund due to the economic crisis we are in. Did I go back on my word?
No, after thinking about current economic conditions, I made a decision to change my past decision. I felt like it was in my best interest to cancel.

Both of these examples was hard for me because I love my wife and sister dearly, but, as a responsible person, sometimes I have to make decisions like these in order to make things work. It may not always be a popular decision, but I try to make the right ones.

We need a President that will make good decisions to get this country back on its feet.

We had 8 years of a President that make bad decisions and tooooooo stubborn to re-evaluate that decision and make a good sound decision.

We had 8 years of a President that don't want to listen to our Allies or Enemies to try to help ease tensions across this planet.

So to all those who wants to hop on the Campbell Brown express of thinking....................

SO WHAT!!!!

Senator Obama made an initial decision. After evaluating that decision, he made a decision that he felt was in his campaign best interest. He put his trust in the American people donations. And it has paid off. What a good decision.

Now, don't forget to watch his speech tonight, after all, he paid good money for it :-)

  1. Ken: what do you think about Georgia Congressman Jim Marshall riding Senator Obama's coattails but refusing to support him.

    The factor that polls can’t measure is “None of the Above.” What happens if new voters who are not loyal to any political party—registered to vote for Obama and change- figure out that Jim Marshall is snubbing Obama/Biden and decide to skip that contest.

    Jim Marshall is riding Obama’s coattails. He better hope that Tom Joyner, Michael Basiden, Steve Harvey or that MSNBC crew don’t get wind of this race.

  2. Slyram and Consciouslady,

    Thank you for your comments.

    As far as Mr. Marshall, he is one of those Ole' Democrate that will never support or vote for Senator Obama for President. I was reading an article a couple of days ago and someone stated that the older white population of Democrates admits that they cannot vote for Senator Obama because of his race. No matter if they are a Democrate, Republician, Green party, or Independent, if they are a specific color, they can't vote for the other color.

  3. Just like the senator from Pennsylvania stated and people got all upset.He just stated the truth.
    Alot of older folks can be comfortable with a little change....but a Black president????
    That's too much change for them to be comfortable.For that reason some will not vote for Obama.
