Too bad U.S. president wannabe, Barack Obama, backed out of an opportunity to sponsor a NASCAR racecar. It seems to me it would have been the perfect metaphor for his campaign.
(CHANGE gears and HOPE I win!)
If he wins (fat chance - see Walter Mondale and Michael Dukakis for similar media-hyped faint hopes), he will drag the U.S. on a hard, fast track to the left, and lost in all of the excitement and noise of the event will be the sad fact that he will be going in endless circles, going nowhere.
I think the true Obama crowd will be sipping latte's in their Volvos in Boston and Seattle - not sucking brewskis with good ol' boys in Georgia and Texas.
"HOPE and CHANGE" is not a plan. It's a slogan.
Ordinary NASCAR fans are smart enough to know that.
