We would have 150,000 troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Guantanamo Bay would be open.
There would be no public option on healthcare, and policy costs would continue to rise.
Seniors would face cuts in Social Security and Medicare benefits.
DADT would be Pentagon policy.
Wall Street would get all the tax breaks they wanted, paid for by the middle class.
The Patriot Act wouldn’t be repealed.
There would be no chance of passing Card Check.
Ben Bernacke would be Fed Chairman.
The New Democrat Coalition would run Congress behind the scenes.
Gates would be Defense Secretary.
The Bush tax cuts for the wealthy would be extended.
I’m so glad I picked the candidate for hope and change.

First full-time job at 17 was dollar-an-hour newspaper copyboy at the Evening and Sunday Bulletin (760,000 daily). Promotions led to general assignments and rewrite at that Pulitzer Prize winning newspaper (1964 and 1965). After the Bulletin, served as the editor of Valley Forge Sentinel and Conshohocken Recorder, Sr. VP of their newspaper group in 1972, and became publisher in 1975 of the West Oak Lane Leader - an African-American community newspaper - for the next 18 years.
In 1993 named president of ING's 18-newspapers in Metro Philadelphia and New Jersey. Company was later purchased by JRC (NYSE), and I was appointed publisher of the Montgomery/Bucks/Philly newspaper division by the infamous Journal Register CEO Bob Jelenic.
During the 60s and 70s, I corresponded for the United States Information Agency, reporting and writing for publication in foreign countries.
