Obama wins 10!

Barack Obama pulled ahead as he won his 10th straight state, Wisconsin then Hawaii. Many say that Hilary Clinton needs to win Ohio and Texas to keep up in his battle. They are getting ready to battle on Thursday night, here in Austin. Obama seems to be targeting a lot of younger voters. To me, he seems more genuine about issues and he really will fix the problems our country has. Clinton just seems, to me, that she is saying anything to get any voters. Surprisingly, Obama had just as many white female voters in Wisconsin as Clinton. When I first heard that Hilary Clinton was running, I assumed that women would vote for her just to have a woman be president. John McCain has clearly won the spot for the Republican Party, so it’s all eyes on Obama and Clinton. Many think that Obama doesn’t have enough experience to be a president. I guess time will tell, if he does win. What kills me about all political issues is the criticism that they lay on all their opponents. I think that they should all just worry about what their plans are and stick to them. Voters will follow what they promise. This also includes character or policy. I am personally drawn to Obama because of his character; I also think he has good policies. I hate it when the candidates just bash each other for their policies (“plagiarizing” and what not). Stop criticizing each other and work on what you believe and what you’re going to do to better our country!

All Eyes on FEMA in Tornado's Aftermath

So everyone's heard about the tornadoes that have occurred recently in the southeast, right? Now everyone is turning to FEMA for help. Can they help? This question arises among many citizens in the states that have been affected and even states outside of them. Many think that FEMA did not help during hurricane Katrina and they won’t do much to help now to fix the damage done by the tornadoes. The question of how effective FEMA really is is starting to turn into a political issue and a blaming game. Who is really to blame for these catastrophes and their cleanings? Mother Nature? President Bush? Or is it the local and state legislature? Can we forget about blaming everyone else and just clean up the mess?!
