I'm constantly asked to weigh in on the Republican race to the 2012 nomination: who do I like, who's gonna win, etc...
Three, initial, thoughts:
1. Interestingly (and, frankly, encouragingly), all the GOP candidates are talking like Conservatives. I haven't seen this kind of Conservatism since...well....the 2010 campaign season.
And we KNOW how THAT turned out...
2. The fact that Romney and Perry are currently in the lead tells me, sadly, that Americans have, thus far, learned NOTHING from 2008.
Then, this EXTREMIST radical, Liberal, ULTRA-LEFT-WING half-black candidate appeared out of nowhere, with almost NO voting record (other than "present"), not a single piece of substantive legislation authored, with ZERO management experience, no agenda and no formal positions, but WAS proved to be have direct ties to extremist radicals like Bill Ayers and Reverend Jeremiah Wright.....BUT, he claimed to be a Centrist....said he would bring both sides together....said he Governed from the middle.....and people believed him!
Both Romney and Perry, according to their rhetoric, are damned Reaganesque! NOTHING could be farther from the truth. BOTH these idiots, along with pretty much the entire field, are BARELY centrist voters. In fact, in the case of both Romney and Perry, some are decidedly LEFT-of-center in their voting!
Yet, Americans, who CLEARLY either haven't done their homework, are gluttons for punishment or are just plain stupid, seem to believe every word they say!
To this, all I can say is: WTF?!
3. I'm not real convinced that ANY of these candidates will still be in the race, come early next year. After all, McCain and Obama pretty much came out of nowhere (where they should have stayed).
So, I'm not really making guesses yet. Pathetically, I haven't seen ANYTHING that tells me that we have the right candidate who stands a chance at beating Obama. Evidently, Republicans are choosing to battle a five-alarm fire....with a squirt gun. What we NEED to fight that fire is AN OCEAN.
We SHOULD be learning a lesson from Reagan's second term: PROVE YOURSELF TO BE A REAL....ACTUAL....CONSERVATIVE, AND THE RACE IS A SLAM-DUNK (in Reagan's second term, he took 49/50 states....the biggest landslide in US history!)
Summon some spine, Conservatives: if we get off our fat, lazy asses, we CAN return this great country to it's founding principles...
Hirota: out.

the candidates that we have on the line will not tell the whole truth and appear too ballsy for fear of certain defeat.The main reason being, how many liberal voters have entered this country, either leagally or illegally since Regan?
Yes, between the unions, blacks, hispanics and these new voters the candidates will be overwhelmed if they don't appear on the fence. Just like Big Ears did.
I agree with Steve and am also completely unimpressed with the Republican candidates currently in the race. I fear we will have no viable candidate to choose from. What is frightening is that if The Anointed One is re-elected, there is no turning back from the complete demise of this country. He and his cronies (on both sides of the aisle!) have done more damage in the past three years than any administration in the history of this once great nation.
Well said, Steve and Michelle!
BUT, I'll argue that the re-election of Obama ISN'T the end of the world (the end of reason, maybe) because there is a MORE important fight that MUST be won in 2012.....more on that in an upcoming piece......
