History repeats. Ignore all presidential candidates until after the Super Bowl. Politicking for the past year has been mostly irrelevant. Valid contenders are typically not front runners until after the Super Bowl. Any time spent learning, praising, or listening to presidential candidates before Super Bowl was only wasted time.
The leader Giuliani is gone. McCain, who was at the bottom and all but written off, is moving up. Obama was clearly way down in the polls. Surprise, surprise (as Gomer used to say because even Gomer was smarter).
Your question is, "which candidate is moderate?" Which one does not worship extremist liberal or extremist conservative propaganda? Which one would Rush Limbaugh hate? Which one will work for America rather than as George Jr has done? George Jr, who promoted extremism and mythical fears, is supported by 1/3rd of America who love extremism, fear, and 'big dic' solutions. That is the politics – wacko extremism - that has existed too long in the name of political agendas.
Last Monday may have been a benchmark. But nobody will know until long after the Super Bowl.
The Economist demonstrates how bad presidential candidates eventually get weeded out by the system so that we never even need consider them.

To his fans, [he] was the real thing: pro-life, anti-tax, plain-spoken and unlikely ever to change his mind about anything. ... "There are, apparently, too many illegal aliens, too much welfare and a younger generation that's all "me, me, me". " "Mr Thompson is the best candidate to protect the country", said Mr Wilkes. He must be sad.

Sad? Yes because Thompson promoted the hate and simplistic ignorance that rallies extremists. Those who have been ignoring such wackos can soon begin an intelligent study after the Super Bowl. Irrelevant candidates are being weeded out by their own extremist biases and stupid mistakes. They did not need us to do that for them.
Do we want more extremist politics complete with the hate and unjustified massacre of good American soldiers? Then ask yourself whether he works for America (a moderate who uses intelligence) or is an extremist (who promotes wacko political agendas). Ask yourself whether he will do what George Jr never did. "When do we go after Osama bin Laden?" We know extremists even in the Cellar so hate America as to never ask that question even when challenged.
They fear to ask that question that only moderates would ask. It should be a benchmark question after the Super Bowl. |
