Y'know, I can see why everyone from the GOP badly wants Christie to run for President. He's really the only one out of all them that could put up a fight with Obama.

Well after another horrid debate performance; Along with another audience moment; it looks like the field has imploded.


A couple of things:

1. Haven't watched a single one. My State typically is not a big player in primaries because it's far enough along that the nominee is clear by time it comes it, so I suspect this same is true this year, and given that under virtually no circumstances (I can never say never) will I vote for Obama, it'd be a waste to watch them. I know enough about each candidate and they're record or lack thereof from other resources that I don't need to watch these things.

2. I don't like watching candidate debates no matter who is involved and I'm not about to start now.

But, in the event, it is still going by the time of the primary, I still remain undecieded.

Actually someone made a pretty interesting comment in a recent article about the fall of Qaghafi's empire and his subsequent death -

Just a thought, has anyone noticed how quiet that Dim Sum of North Korea has been ever since the Libya revolt and NATO's involvement?

That brings up the very interesting point that North Korea hasn't been spouting their propaganda crap lately, because they don't want a few Predator Drones coming in and dropping bombs on their heads tongue.gif

I...I just realized something

The GOP nomination...is Perry vs Romney

Doesn't that sound too familiar...like Bush vs Kerry?

*Groucho Marx voice* Except the Texan flipflopped as much as the Mormon. Now someone was desperate enought to let the Pizza Guy in and the crazy lady is still screamin' from the back porch.

Not to mention those crazy old relatives are still locked in the backroom, here take this key and hide it. I gave the other key to a salamander because it thinks the Newt is a jerk.

I unexpectedly became a eyewitness to the recent 'Occupy New York' political protests that happened last weekend. Here's what I saw and experienced -

It's Romney v. Not-Romney.

The frontrunner is Romeny. The base hates him (primarily because of RomneyCare, but there are other reasons as well), but is willing to hold their nose if they think he's the best bet to beat Obama in the general. So, the they are looking for someone who is a viable alternative. First, that was Perry. Then he struggled in the debates and the "heartless" comment on the Texas Dream Act hurt. Pawlenty is kicking himself for bailing so early. It's too bad, really. I had some interest in him.

The current not-Romney is Herman Cain.

At the time, they were faced with the first attack on US soil by a foreign enemy since Pearl Harbor using a tactic no one had used on them, let alone inside the United States.

Shortly thereafter, the Whitehouse detectors detect a deadly posion.

I'd be a bit on edge too until the results came back.

But then again, if I were there at that moment I wouldn't have had the benefit of ten years worth of hindsight nor knowledge of how that episode turned out.

Your post is nothing but a cheap shot. And a bad one at that.

If you looked at it in hindsight, it just shows how paranoid they were. It's understandable, but after 10 years we still see paranoia towards Muslims and terrorism. Basically, paranoia is now deeply rooted in American culture. And it all started from a terrorist attack, which is rather understandable but my point is, it's about time you guys moved beyond that and realize that you've created a culture of paranoia. That's what the hindsight view is supposed to be.

Really...

Back in 1942 the American people had paranoia about the Japanese...today the American youth is hooked on anime and manga...explain that tongue.gif
