This is the second month that Obama’s campaign has exceeded the 50 million dollar monthly threshold.这是继本月奥巴马的竞选已经超过了5000万美元每月的门槛。 But don’t be fooled by the above numbers…the RNC (Republican National Committee) reports having $75 million in the bank and the DNC (Democratic National Committee) reports $28 million.但是,不要被愚弄了上述数字的共和党全国代表大会... (共和党全国委员会)的报告说, 7500万美元在银行和DNC系统(民主党全国委员会)的报告为2800万美元。 These funds can and will be used during the election to buy advertising time on the Idiot Box and other media.这些资金可以将用于在选举期间购买广告时间的白痴盒和其他媒体。 Thus the money advantage for Obama is not as great as one might think.因此,资金优势,奥巴马是不是很大,人们可能认为。 It seems that McCain’s campaign does not draw as much money as Obama’s, BUT the Republican party is a far wealthier Organization than the Democratic counterpart.看来,麦凯恩的竞选没有提请的钱作为奥巴马的,但共和党的党是一个组织远远高于富裕民主国家。
As indicated before, from this writer’s point of view, the election comes down to choosing the lesser of two evils.正如前,从笔者的角度来看,选举归结为选择较小的两个罪恶。 Senator Obama’s positions are mostly centrist whereas Senator McCain is a potentially dangerous radical.参议员奥巴马的职位大多是中间派,而麦凯恩参议员是一个有潜在危险的自由基。 It is to be expected that under a Obama government some of the more absurd and counterproductive decisions of the Bush administration will be corrected and the country will be patched up to some degree, but real reforms will be lacking.可以预期,根据奥巴马政府一些更荒谬和反作用的决定,布什政府将予以纠正,该国将修补了一定程度,但真正的改革将缺乏。 Under McCain the course of he last eight years will be maintained, leading to more misery for the large majority of voters.根据麦凯恩的过程中,他过去8年里将得到保持,从而导致更多的苦难对绝大多数的选民。
