Obviously there are intelligent people in all walks of life, I will not deny that. However, I am alarmed at the ineptitude of the Republican party. The most recent example is the gift they have been handed in President Obama. I know he has the MSM and a "billion" dollars, so most people will have to make their decision based on their wallets. Considering the true unemployment rate, cost of living and general quality of life, Obama is a sitting duck. So why do I see the possibility of another 4 years of Obamanism?
Ever since I have been able to vote, I was told the Republicans are the better party for the people. But they are the "dumb" party. I am not one to take someone's word without proof, so I did my research and decided that I am closer to the Republicans than the Democrats (just not "dumb")! Republican policies and beliefs are better for our country in all aspects. When I used to listen to Rush, (A story for another day) he said the Democrats were the "feel good" party. He was and is still right-on. I don't blame Perot for Clinton's election. It was because Bush raised taxes and all of the votes were against him. Imagine that, elect a Democrat because of a tax hike? Insane!
All of the people currently running for the Republican nomination are intelligent, better than Obama, and at the same time, self destructive. Even those considering a run are most likely unelectable. Anyone that questions the qualifications of the potential Republican nominees obviously has no idea what a disaster we have in office. But Obama has the voice, so we need to avoid the self destruction.
Bachmann started off strong, but Iowa is her birth state. A run from the House is a difficult road. Then Perry took the lead but should have waited for his back surgery to heal. The pain killers made him live up to the "dumb" party label. Cain should have addressed the allegations immediately. Either they are true or false. Just say it and refuse to comment anymore. Now Newt is blaming VA for his campaign's inability to comply with the rules. Paul's foreign policy, "9/11 truther" statements and drug legalization? He is an extreme Libertarian. So who is left? No offense to those not mentioned, but it is Romney. While he would be better than Obama, I am tired of settling for the lesser of two evils. Let's face it, Romney is a Blue Dog Democrat at best. I will not vote for him in the Primary, but we need to accept the fact that he will probably get the nomination. Oh, this is a guy that couldn't beat McCain in 2008!
Our only hope is to obtain control of Congress. But the Primary POTUS run is doing nothing but hurting that possibility. The current House is taking a beating and their defense is lame. They have actually made Obama look better. They will never get fair media coverage and have to live with it. Just do the right thing. What a Catch 22.
So what do I think of the Republican party? They have great ideas but lack people skills and a voice. Therefore, they are the "Absent-Minded" Party.
