What really matters in politics

What a sad state of affairs. Presidential candidate Barack Obama has to constantly defend his religion and proclaim to the press he is NOT a Muslim. He is, in fact, a Christian. Yet, smear e-mails and letters are trying to portray him as a Muslim.
It shouldn't even matter. Just as it shouldn't matter if another candidate is a Mormon or a Christian. Or a woman.
What is important? How a candidate plans to deal with Iraq. How a candidate is going to deal with health care reform. How a candidate is going to deal with the subprime mess, our dependency on oil, global warming, etc.

At this juncture what matters in politics is winning the highly coveted "President of the USA" office. Candidates and party affiliates are going to use rumors and questionable tactics to undermine each other during this pursuit.

Political ethics and moral values will be suspended in the meantime.

But the fun is just getting started. The smear campaigns are going shift into overdrive next week in preparation for the upcoming caucuses and primaries.

Buckle your seat belts...It's going to get uglier out there.
