A long time ago I posted on here that I thought Obama had
"swing", the kind of "swing" that engages young people and people fed up with government as usual. I figured he had great momentum but also figured he'd get mauled by the Clintonistas and their plantation employees and it would soon be over.
That's not going to happen.
A long time ago I posted that if we were going to be sentenced to having a tax happy big government Democrat in the White House I guess I'd have to wish for Hillary since she seems a better foreign policy tough than Barack.
That's not how I feel anymore.
A long time ago I figured what Republicans would be looking for in a nominee would be a man most matched to Ronald Reagan, a man who appreciated liberal points of view but always swung for the bleachers where Conservatives sat.
Watch me whittle:
Thompson is not going to be elected in a U.S.A general.
McCain is too old and too unstable.
Giuliani is great but lacks the family thing and seems to care little about remaining fresh. But he's my candidate if I had to choose now.
Huckabee is a wild eyed evangelical who has no respect for the Constitution and even contradicts his own website.
Romney is a perfect candidate but is not seen as real by most Americans and he still has to prove he can gain Democrat crossover votes. (I think he probably can if he tries)
Paul is not going to be elected even though I agree with many of his positions and think some of the other positions deserve a hearing.
On the Democratic side Hillary has shown herself to be a terrible candidate. She constantly needs her red faced and boasting blowhard husband to bail her out, and she is a plastic and insincere person who represents the worst of American politics.
She and her liberal supporters are mostly, in my opinion, white guilt ridden limousine liberals who have thus far profited from keeping blacks on the government plantation and who for years have used blacks for political purposes and political purposes only. Welfare addicts, Union siphons, white middle class race hypocrites, and rich white suburban guilt monkeys make up the bulk of the Hillary support.
More recently it has come out that Obama's "pastor" at his Church seems to be some kind of Farrakhan supporter. But actually the pastor, like Obama, and, dare I say, like Farrakhan, happen to believe that blacks should be born conservatives, focusing on individual achievement and on family and on supporting the black community in its financial endeavors. They are demeaned as "black separatists" but in actuality they are supporters of pursuit of individual and collective success without the aid of government. If that's "black Separatism" then I am all for it.
so...fasten your seatbelts: I think Barack Obama can be the next Ronald Reagan--not in philosophy but in impact. Those of you hoping for a Republican President had better fight him like he is the next Ronald Reagan.
