He’s a self-made businessman who travels the world telling companies how to do their job with computers, and gets paid for it. He’s a sensible conservative, eight years Navy, married for some thirty years, two good kids. (well, one good and one incomparable–but I’m biased)

Unfortunately, he’s not crazy enough to actually RUN.

The tragedy of Democratic Republics is that we rarely are allowed (if ever) to elect the BEST PERSON for the job. At best, we elect the best of the pack that offer themselves for the job.

As the pols make the rules more and more restrictive, the fields will always become smaller, as fewer men and women of quality will want to subject themselves, their families, and their families’ history, to the great media anal-exam that we conclude during the first week of November.

Sad, isn’t it?

I don’t find it a big deal that people didn’t vote for Mitt because of his Mormonism. A) When given the chance to defend his religion, he flopped out like a puss while at the same time denigrated non-believers. And B) Why shouldn’t people decline to vote for someone because of their beliefs, if their beliefs happen to be intellectually stunted, even in comparison to most other religions?

What can the GOP be thinking about?

The fallacy of this statement is that moderate/independent voters put him there; as indicated in the numbers who came out to vote for McCain his support from Republicans isn’t all that much.

Usually in elections it’s the moderate/independent voter who gets the pampering however, in this election moderate/independent voters are McCain’s base so now they’re going to have to learn how to pamper.

If moderate/independents don’t want hillary/obama they need to learn how to bring Republicans into Mcain’s moderate/independent party.

Hint: For example, telling Conservatives to STFU isn’t how you bring voters into the fold, it turns people off and away from the voting booth.

Unlike past elections, in this election the ball is in the moderate/independent’s court, play it well my friends otherwise you will be responsible for getting Hillary or Obama elected.
