In the Race
Now, here, you see, it takes all the blogging I can do to keep in the same place.
If I want to get somewhere else, I must blog twice as fast as that!
You see, I'm in

John and Cindy McCain...I Had No Idea

I had no idea.
I had no idea that John and Cindy McCain were so real.
They are real, down-to-earth Americans.
I’ve been watching Cindy McCain standing in the background all these months.
She’s been standing there, dressed very nicely, smiling. Looking sweet.
I’ll admit it. I’ve thought it. Just another wealthy politician’s wife.
John and Cindy McCain are pretty quiet when it comes to speaking about themselves.
I had forgotten that most people who do good are that way. Most people who do good for others, or are just good people, don’t talk about it. You see, they are too busy doing.
When I saw that video about Cindy McCain last night, the one about her life…it touched my heart.
Cindy McCain is just like so many women in America..and the world for that matter. She is caring. She cares about other human beings. Cindy McCain is like so many woman in America and the world. She is a loving mother. Cindy McCain is like some very, very courageous woman in America and the world. She has had to send a son off to war. Cindy McCain is married to John McCain, a man who also holds those same values…caring for other human beings, a loving, proud parent, a courageous man himself. Back when John and Jackie Kennedy were in the Camelot days…that wasn’t about us, the people of America. We couldn’t relate to that. We could only dream. They were that beautiful couple, practically royalty.
Now, I’m not saying Barack and Michelle Obama are like the Kennedy’s…they’re not. But they aren’t like the McCain’s either. But I can’t relate to them as regular American’s. In other words…I feel that John McCain knows more about average American people. When Fred Thompson talk’s about John McCain in the box and all the years he was there, I know John was thinking about America and what it meant to be an American. And when I saw Cindy breaking down on that video last night, or bringing that baby home to her own family, and then sending her “baby” boy off to war, it made me know she has felt the pain. They are the real deal.
