Sports

This past weekend was a very good weekend for me for sports. Penn State whipped Ohio State. This is a big game every year and of late Ohio was getting the best of us. How sweet it was !

The Philadelphia Eagles won on Sunday and the Phillies are one game, or is it 1/2 game, away from winning the world series. It has been a long time since Phillie won anything. The city will be nuts when they do. I know I'm excited about it !
As the elections draw near I have thought long about who I think is the best candidate. I am not excited about either of them. I still think Obama as a person is a great orator but is lacking experience to run the country. I saw the same problem with George W. but he surrounded himself with good people and managed to get by.
McCain has the experience but lacks the charisma that Americans like in their Presidents.
I don't care for either of the VP picks. One doesn't have a good grasp on world politics and the other should have retired years ago.
Which ever one wins will not have an easy time of it. Besides the normal Democrats versus the Republicans issues there are two wars being fought, an economy that is shattered, a health system that is out of control and the country's retirement system that is in jeopardy of collapsing.
It will take a lot of time and prayer to right any or all of these area's.

It is time for us as a whole to look inwards and upwards to find the answers. Only God can help us through the leaders we choose to guide our country. Please pray before you vote that God will show you the best choice. and don't forget.....VOTE. Many men and women have shed their blood and died for us to have this right !!
