Okay, agreed it’s a tad premature to be thinking about the next GOP nominee to take on Obama in 2012, but you have to admit this is going to be fun for our side. I mean, who have they got? McCain’s got several forks in him. Palin….puleeeze! Romney….Mormon, Guliani….double puleeeze. For sure there’s got to be a couple of smart people left in the republican party who will find a new guy or gal who could challenge. From what we’ve seen of Obama before he even takes the reigns of office is that this isn’t gonna be easy for the repubs. Even repubs admit he’s smart and that he can hardly be blamed for the current problems confronting America.
One name they have left in their diminishing arsenal which I’ve been hearing about is Newt Gingrich. Aside from a name even weirder than Barak’s, this guy is a three time loser with wives and an even bigger loser when it comes to governance. If Newt hadn’t shut down the government in 2005 over a perceived slight with Bill Clinton, Bill would have never met Monica. Newt’s also the guy who created the negative talking points about democrats, a list that demonized everything liberal. Like, we need all this negative campaigning again? Remember, the guy resigned as House Leader, the position Nancy Pelosi now holds. He resigned because he didn’t want to be the minority leader, and that pretty much tells you all you need to know about him. He took on the big dog, (Clinton), lost, so he took his ball and went home. That’s a leader?
Anyway, time to take a couple of breaths and give Obama a chance to organize for January 20th. Finally, the smartest guy in the room is going to be the president and how long have we waited for that?
