Historic Election

This was the most historic election ever. No matter what happened, there was going to be a first in the white house. The winner became the first african american president in history. and for that, i am proud of the people who voted. i did not have the chance to vote, i only nearly missed it, however i wish i would have been able to for a number of reasons. one being how historic this election was and another because i really believe that Obama was the best candidate. i followed the election closer this year then ever before and i think that the election came down to more than who the best president would be, but who the best pair would be. Obama and Biden are clearly a better fit. I think the main fault in McCain's campaign was his running partner. in no way do i mean that because she is a woman, but she was just not the proper person for the job. Also, their apperences on Saturday Night Live really hurt their campaign in my opinion. they seemed much less serious because of that, and that is no way i want to think about the person running this country. McCain is very old, and if he were to pass while in office, Palin as president would be a disaster. I do not think that she could handle that kind of responsibilty.
