What’s due diligence?
It?s really nothing more than an audit or an investigation of a potential investment. It?s a form of risk management measure so that one can prevent any harm to both parties during or after the deal is closed. That’s what I was doing for a broadcast investment firm back in New Jersey then.
First, let me remind you. I voted Democrat ? Barack Obama.
Now, the aftermath of the US Presidential Elections is not that good for Sarah Palin. It?s almost like Somalia stoning. Is there a civil war on the Republican Party? Bloody shit! I can?t comprehend that, it?s only a few days after the election and now she?s being hounded as the ultimate reason for the great debacle. Yes, it was all her fault as the blame goes.
Wait a minute here!
From what I understand, John McCain lost because:
- Obama has more money.
- Obama run a very focused and organized campaign.
- George Bush approval ratings were almost leveled to the ground.
- McCain ran a nasty negative ad and bloody annoying robocalls.
- Finally, during the Wall Street meltdown, John McCain said that the fundamentals of the economy were strong. Then he flipped a few hours later and said, that we were in a crisis.
So, why blame Sarah Palin?
Because she doesn?t know what countries comprises NAFTA? That Africa was a continent country? That her kid?s travels were funded by state funds? That she could see Russia from her house? That she?s not familiar of any controversial laws in the country other than Roe v. Wade? These allegations might be true or false, right or wrong but didn?t all these came up during the due diligence process? What kind of due diligence was done or was there one done at all?
She might have some misgivings but it?s not fair to Sarah Palin.
Didn?t she delivered the fact that she energized the Republican crowd? Didn?t she delivered the fact that she was able to haul the Republican Conservatives? Didn?t she delivered the fact that she was the attack dog to the Democrats? She did her job.
The dysfunctionality of the team rests with the team leader. Breakdown in leadership is the leader’s fault.

wow nice one.
now im asking my self…why am i under impression that Sarah Palin was one of the reason why Mc Cain somehow lost his popularity?(i mean partly).
and she also pulled Mc.Cain popularity(partly) even tho we can see very clearly what kind of candidate Mc.Cain was.
Maybe because i only see those negative things about her,and from media and those negative accusations everywhere.
ok, i admit, my bad, i didnt really research, i maybe misjudge her.
(nadale ko dito ni reynz,nakikinig sa sabi sabi walang bait sa sarili, ouch!)

how about realizing that the Latino immigrants are no longer a minority, there arenow be taqueria-burrito places everywhere, combine the Asians, meaning Filipinos, Koreans, Japanese and the biggest contingent the Chinese, there’s dimsum places sprouting in Arizona as we speak = Barack Obama

i had to explain to my Father why I had to vote Obama: I am not looking at his skin color, I am looking at the bigger picture, I have to heed Hillary’s call to support Obama after she did not get the nomination. If people are seeing W when they see mckwen, I see Bill and the economic stability when I hear Obama’s name.
In addition, the Republicans dropped the ball on the immigrants and that disgruntled the Latino voters – the USA is a country of immigrants
Aside from the immigrants with color, there are also immigrants of white color, I’ve worked with a lot of Irish and from those from Russia and neighboring countries as well, add to that those who owns the liquor store there at the corner are owned by Middle Eastern brothers
Yes, Sarah Palin is damaged good now…but please leave her alone. I am giving her the benefit of doubt that she did declined at first to be the VP but had to look at the bigger picture too to do her own PATRIOTIC duty to the American people

i agree with you, your highness. why put the blame on palin? she was chosen by mccain di ba? there’s no one to blame but him.
[Reply]
hi lee,
hahaha she did pulled back McCain in a lot of ways especially after the Katie Couric interview. I was one of those who really admired her during the Republican National Convention – but what a change that was! Grabe!

mukhang mahirap talaga manalo ang republican when it comes to immigration. di nila platform yan sa mga policies nila esp kamo sa hispanic haha
alam mo, i don’t think this was about race dahil sa laki nang nakuhang boto ni Obama sa mga working class whites. besides, media lang naman ang bumabalandra na black si Obama when in fact, puti den sya which is good dahil alam naman nang white majority na puti si obama.
also, you’re right on the minority thing. malapit nang maging minority ang mga puti. kakalungkot hahaha

the upper class whites are the one who are nakikinabang sa mga immigrants, kung walang magcrocross ng borders sinong pipitas ng ubas? ang mga Pilipino, most of us are working in the office or sa medical field, the Koreans have their own laundry business, kaya nga meron kaming Cesar Chavez Holiday in honor of those who pick up the grapes
