Okay, this will not shock any follower of this blog (all 8 of you). I am leaning hard to supporting Romney in the upcoming election - and DON'T CARE about "Romneycare". I would actually really love to see a Romney/Ryan ticket. But, this will not be about me and who I support, but instead about some concerns.
So, there was the "trump" card stuff. Show the Birth certificate, and how did this guy do well in college...why that "mother..well, ya know", then the stare at Seth Myers. So, The Donald was what we should have all thought he was, a self-promoter, who shoots from the hip - only problem, what was he shooting, and why in the world did so many get on his bandwagon..give me a break!
Then there was the "non-candidate" debate that was not a debate, which looked like a show where one participant (Paul) got another one (Johnson) high before to demonstrate how drugs shouldn't be regulated. This was so bad, that Herman Cain wins on one line..."how's that workin for ya" - Herman, it isn't. However, the BIG result, the guy who many thought was the ONE true candidate in the bunch, finished, at best 3rd (Pawlenty). He is now probably hoping someone will offer him a VP spot.
Then, there is Newt, and whoa. This is going to be something. Why did he come out against Ryan, is he trying to lose it before it gets started?
Then, there are polls, made of straws, leaders, and clowns. Just go looking, you will find a poll that says, Paul is winning, Palin is winning (is she running) Bachman is winning (again, is she running)...blah blah blah!
So far, there is ONE viable candidate and he proved it by raising $10.3 million in a single day. However, the list of "conservatives" lining up to attack him without ever reading a single word from his position statements. Of course, this guy is the aforementioned Romney. Can't wait to hear how I'm a sellout (again) for backing a RHINO..my response, borrowed from Cain - Obama, How's that workin out for ya!
Listen folks, it is time that conservatives start to not just get educated on the constitution, but also on politics - the dems have been kicking our butts long enough. Fortunately, so far, Obama has proven he (and more importantly his team) doesn't get strategy-two examples;
1. The Birth Certificate: Trump was the best friend Obama had, he was going to do extreme damage the longer he was "in" or at least on the news. Add to it that the whole time he was "birthering" it up, Obama knew he had the "trump card" to crush Trump, whenever he chose. Why put it out there when he did - not the smartest move.
2. Drill Now: For the record, I love this decision, but everyone knows the only reason he is moving on this is to take away a platform that R's were going to own...poor Herman Cain, that was his statement, and a liberal stole it away. However, the timing again, just doesn't make any sense. This isn't about amounts of oil, it is a move to bring speculation back down to earth. If that happens, gas prices will follow, consumer confidence would increase, and there would be a spike in the economy, that would probably show signs of stability in the job markets too. All of that sounds good, however, the timing is wrong! Two reasons, speculation might lower, but demand in the summer will hold prices high, and again, Obama should have left this until at least August, personally, if I were his adviser, I would have told him to hold it as long as he could, until about 5 months from the primary.
To all this I say...winning isn't everything - it is the future. It isn't about "winning the future" it is about "winning so we have a future".
