If America is a country of great exceptionalism, and everybody is competing to be the best, what is Joe Six-Pack doing?

Signs America is Turning into a Third World Country
This is not funny,but "Sugar, we're going down". From the economy to unemployment; America and by extension the WORLD is not sitting too pretty. Add that to the fact, that 60% of Americans polled said they believe the country is heading for a recession.
I'm not sure where the Treasury gets its money from, but at some point it will run out of money. Third world countries have no low income sources, a lack of liquidity and many have taken on tremendous debt in order to modernize.
Sounds like America to me!
- We owe China upwards of $500 billion
- The national debt is xx trillion and the deficit is x trillion
- The number of Americans unable to pay their utility bills has increased considerably
- People are stealing copper plumbing pipes from foreclosed homes
- The government has nationalized the housing industry through Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
- The Treasury has pledged at least $1 trillion between the financial institutions' collapse --> but the global situation is worsening
- Mayor Bloomberg is making a play at dictatorship in NYC by appealing to financial fears by overturning term-limits, which he supported
These are just a few reasons, but reason enough to make us shudder when we look ahead at the next few years.

Obama's Top 3 Campaign Busters
If I am following the campaign correctly, McCain's waning appeal will become Obama's problem. Scare tactics are always a sureshot. Here is my top 3 (whats and whys).
- William Ayers and Jeremiah Wright --> These associations though debunked, threatened to derail Obama before and are likely to have some effect on undecided voters.
- Illegal campaign contributions --> This charge is being leveled by the GOP and will try to sully the character of Obama. Although nearly $1.2 million from McCain's campaign was returned, this revelation could make bigger news at the tailend of the campaign for Obama.
- Everything that Palin says --> She has a hands-off policy and because she has officially been endorsed as a sister by California NOW president. Any direct response to her could be deemed SEXIST.
Obama must stay on the offensive and keep focused on the economy with a comprehensive plan and some discussion of his first 3 months in office.
