Decision time.
Here are some things to keep in mind as you choose the form of the Destructor:
1. The Economy won't get much better, no matter which of these doofuses plants his seat in the Oval Office. It's regulation that's killing this country's economy, and Mittens is a not-quite-as-big-government as Barry. A Romney administration will preside over a continued sputtering and no job growth, and all the "green shoots" that the Press so hopefully reports on will oddly disappear next January 20 if Mitt wins.
2. For most people, the issue is jobs. If Romney wins, the Press will be nothing but "Jobless Recovery" (remember that from 2004?) for the next 4 years. Without job growth, that will stick, and we very well may see Romney turned out after four years.
3. A Romney administration is no chip shot for Supreme Court nominees. Ignore that given a chance he's likely to show his true G. H.W. Bush colors and appoint another Souter; if it looks like he might lose, the liberal justices might just stagger on for another four. A Democratic successor to Romney might appoint as many as five Justices in his first term. That would be a record since George Washington's time.
4. Mush from the wimp. Stick a fork in him, he's done. The Obama campaign is ruthless, and what people have so far been interpreting as Mitt's steadiness is in reality ripe to be exploited by the Democrats. Turn out the lights, the party's over ...
5. The action that counts is in the House and Senate races, but the action that really counts is almost over - running challengers against the too-comfortable Republican fat cats that don't care about what happens to the country as long as they get their chairmanships and earmarks. Right now, confidence is not high.
And so, we only await The Sign.
Oops, somebody just chose Romney ...
Me, I'm sticking to my original plan.
Or maybe Cthulhu. If I vote for him, maybe he'll devour me first.
UPDATE 11 April 2012 16:55: Robb says it with pictures. Heh.
You said "Mussolini's Corpse could beat Obama"
ReplyDeleteI had CSPAN on yesterday and they covered a Romney rally. It was probably the best I've ever seen him do as he was able to concentrate on Obama. Can't say he'll be better in office, but he sure sounds better than Obama on the campaign trail.

ReplyDeleteIf nothing else, we would be assured that for a modest fee we could walk the streets without being mugged more than a couple of times a year.
And we would always get a proper receipt.
T-Bolt, Mussolini's Corpse seems to be running a better campaign than Romney.
ReplyDeleteMussolini may be dead but he does have a granddaughter...

I like Cthulhu's foreign policy of destroy everything and kill everyone, but I don't care for his domestic policy of destroy everything and kill everyone.
