Des Moines Register Endorses: McCain & Clinton

With the wintry weather kicking into high gear in the Midwest, the candidates are finding it increasingly difficult to meet and greet the crowds. Those who didn't do their foot-work earlier in the campaign are having to increasingly rely on the media to convey their message.

One candidate emerges as a clear winner in this regard for on her side she has the best political mind in modern times, Bill Clinton. Not to say that Oprah's is lacking in star power, no; but she is not a politician and spending her weekends campaigning for Obama is not a profitable use of her time. Her one weekend stint might not be enough to overshadow Bill Clinton's experience and concerted effort at the national level., unless people ask questions!!

A seasoned politician, Bill transcends the impossible and brings out the best out of a bad situation. Clearly Hillary is the least liked of all the candidates, nevertheless, Bill has managed to get the people to look at him while voting for her. He has managed to convince the masses that by voting for Hill, they are getting him back to the white house. Who can forget?

In short, he has decided to carry her on his shoulders. So let's take a look at this family; let’s find out what Bill has that's such a female magnet and hypnotizes us all to immediately forgive him for his follies as we eagerly await the next.



One question I would like these anchors and so called experts to ask the candidates is: If JFK Jr. was alive today, what would their campaigns look like? Would they even have a campaign given that the odds would be very much in his favor? Fortuitous as it is, or perhaps it's just a convenient coincidence, did either of the candidates have anything to do with his Assassination? Would they have vote for him today if he was alive or would they challenge him?


Time has run out to for most candidates. Those who didn't hit the trail early have run out of time because they not only have to battle the wintry storms, they have to hope their electorate are as brave.


Now look out for more ads on the TV, internet and Newspapers. Look for some cool ads and some dull ones too. Des Moinse registers endorsement of Clinton and McCain is a long shot at reviving dying campaigns. These endorsements are more from loyalty to the candidates than from their policies.
