Bated Breath

Like everyone else, I am completely full of anticipation for tonight's election results.  I'm watching polls and hoping for the best.  There are few races in North Carolina that are gathering national attention in the media.  But history will be made in North Carolina if Republicans take the State House and the State Senate.  That will mean for the first time in 100 years, Republicans will hold state congressional power.  I hope that means all that I hope it means.....but we will see.  

They say all politics is local.  This year, all local politics have national implications.  There are a few critical races I am watching more closely...here they are:

Rand Paul in Kentucky

John Kasich in Ohio

Marco Rubio in Florida

Sharron Angle in Nevada

Tom Tancredo in Colorado

Pat Toomey in Pennsylvania

Carly Fiorina in California

Nikki Haley in South Carolina

Joe Miller in Alaska

I wish Christine O'Donnell could have pulled it off in Delaware, but at the moment the chances look slim to none for her.

But the one I will be up dancing and celebrating about is Sharron Angle over Harry Reid.  I expect fraud to be rampant in the gambling mecca of Las Vegas, so I have no idea if she can overcome that corruption.  Acorn and SEIU are swarming the place and doing all they can to keep the slimy Reid in office.  If prayer works....I am praying he gets thrown out to the dumpster where he belongs.  I wish he and Pelosi could don orange jumpsuits and put their corruption to work on the inside of some Federal prison somewhere.  But my wishes are not likely to happen on that score. 

The one most appealing aspect of all of this is the national rejection of Socialism.  I suppose I should be thanking Obama for exposing the rats in our Congress and in our entire government who have been salivating over unprecedented power by anti-American, anti-Constitutional ideology.  Those rats have been ever increasing in our government for decades and it is high time to weed them out and put them in the dustbin of failed history with all other Socialists / Fascists / Communists. 

Anyway.....I hope you are all out there at the voting booths, if you haven't voted early.  I'll be up late tonight....and so will most of the country, I think. 

THE VOTER'S BLESSING AND BURDEN

The real impact of the upcoming election is to find out how much power we, the electorate, still have.  NGO's (non-governmental organizations) have been set up to regulate without our authority, the government at all levels has ignored our Constitution, global and corporate power brokers have usurped our authority, Congress has become a bad joke, academics with no practical experience are imposing ideologies we don't believe in, crises are being manufactured in order to manipulate the public, etc.  It is a very different place in which we find ourselves.  The question remains: Can America survive this?  Is this moment in history a perfect storm that will destroy America?  Or is this the moment in history when Americans take back their own legacy of freedom and prosperity?  Are there enough Americans aware of their own precious legacy to even understand the weight on their shoulders?

For decades now, while the American public school system has been dumbing down students and using them for social engineering laboratories, academics in universities have been concocting a globalist, socialist, ideological view that is antithetical to the foundations of our country. The 'ruling class' academics think of themselves as above the ordinary American.  They think they are bigger in brainpower and understanding of the complex world we live in.  Through their arrogance, they believe they know better than the average American voter.  

Democracy to the 'ruling class' is a weapon to fool people into thinking they have some say in matters, but in reality to divest people of a real say in government.  That sounds like a dichotomy, but if you look at the inferior choices we have had in past elections, and the melding of corruption in both major parties, you can understand that dichotomy.  Most countries of the world do not have primaries where citizens can put themselves in position of being elected.  Most so-called democratic countries have power structures which choose who will be elected or not. 

We are fortunate in our country to have primaries, where our citizens elect candidates for political offices.   Yet, when it works to elect candidates the people want, as it did in this past primary season, look how the 'ruling class' elitists howled at and ridiculed the people's selections.  Look at the media hysteria over Christine O'Donnell in Delaware, for instance, who is going up against a devout and admitted Marxist.  The people in Delaware chose O'Donnell over a Republican who voted with Obama on most of the big government socialist programs.  Republicans rejected Obama's agenda and voted to put up a real conservative against a Marxist.  It's a clear choice in Delaware, thanks to the people's voices.  But the 'ruling class' booed and hissed. That is just how far left the 'ruling class' in America has gone. 

This is a telling moment in our lifetimes.  In this election and the next, we are about to find out if we are in charge of our own destiny, or if we are pawns of a broken system created by 'ruling class' elitists who could care less if our Constitution survives or not.  We are about to find out if NGO's  and socialists are going to continue putting us on the "Road to Serfdom," taking away every last vestige of our liberties, or if our American spirit will prevail.   We have the burden, the privilege, and the blessing given to us by our Founding Fathers to give it our best, and hopefully not, last shot.
