Its been a while ...
Happy New Year to all.
And you might have noticed that my man Barack is kicking some serious heine. And quite a large target it is, too. But on this day before the all-important New Hampshire primary, Barack looks set to hand Hil-liar her walking papers. I sure hope so. And not only because I'd prefer to see Osama as our President to Hil-liar, but also for what this vote might represent: the dawn of a new American political age.
You see, Hil-liar's greatest political flaw is that she offers nothing new. It is the same-old, same-old democratic party from the 1960's. The post great-age rebellion produced no real viable ideas: Hil-liar still rants about the great right wing conspiracies (while anyone with a brain must realize that the "Right" are so pathetic, they couldn't organize a piss-up in a brewery), social reform and income redistribution, welfare programs that only serve to increase social division, and not unify our society.
The fact that Huckabee won the Iowa clambake shows that people want to elect a "good person," someone that they might feel comfortable with. And Barack is that man for the Democrats. Heck, they elected Dubbya twice because he seemed to be someone that they would like to have a beer with. Trouble is, he is also a functioning moron. In Barack, they have the same feel-good element, coupled with someone that does not take the old class politics road -- someone that actually seems to want to think things out first before trotting out stale old hocus pocus.
As to Huckabee ... well the party is over. The people of New Hampshire are possessed of a little more savy than the corn-pone inhabitants of Iowa: they do not believe in the tooth fairy in New Hampshire. Sadly for Huckabee, the very element that makes him so attractive to the evangelical right in the Midwest will make him completely unacceptable to the rest of the country ... uh ... like ... uh ... his rejection of Darwinism, and any other form of scientific or logical rigor?
So on to Romney and Rudy. Rudy looked stale last night on the televised Republican forum. Stale with fuzzy mold growing on him. And despite the concerted attacks on Romney, he seemed only to get stronger. Weird contrast: Romney's belief structure serves somehow to reinforce his stature, but Huckabee looks ridiculous.
McCain ... lose the comb-over. You ARE as old as dirt and also a liberal for all intents and purposes. Seriously, you have to have a real idea about what you are going to do about ilelgal immigration. You can't just say that "we will have to sit down and talk about it" ... that is NOT a solution that is going to fly in this election, at least not with conservative voters. And Hil-liar fails in the same context. Ever see Hil-liar and McCain in the same room together? Thought not.
So on towards tomorrow: Barack by 15%. Romney by 10%.
