How to deal with our political class?

Following the $700 billion financial sector and the other $110 billion worth of pork to make the deal passable, I have decided that congress should be fired; that’s just what each member deserves for failing us, we the people, and bringing this country to its financial ruin. So over this election and the new few ones, I’ll make a point to vote against my incumbent congressman and my two senators. Now, how will I deal with our next president? I’ll vote for Obama because he’s a smart individual who knows how to manage effectively (his campaign stands as a resounding example in the category), he’s also positive, conveys hope and exults youth’s energy and creative power; to top it all, he voted against the war in Iraq. What about McCain? His attributes run just in the opposite direction: He comes across as a stubborn man who acts impulsively and over the past months, the “maverick” has turned into a negative, retrograde mouthpiece. Finally he’s just too old for what the job demands; he’s also pro-war, a kind of activity we can’t afford anymore. Senator Biden is lucky to be on Obama’s side and Governor Palin belongs with the moose, the bears and the seals in Alaska.
