Republican Primaries

In the strangeness that is this election season, it’s worth noting that after all the posturing and all the machinations Mit Romney still wins.

It’s also interesting to note that the rabidly anti-gay, profoundly conservative Christian Fundamentalists are sucking hind tit.
Romney, is as conservative as all the others. He’s made his beliefs very clear.

The fact that he is a Mormon, and that the Mormon Church has funded almost all of the attacks on gay marriage legislation should make it damn clear that he’s not going to be supportive of any same sex marriage legislation. But of all the candidates at least Romney has been talking more about the real issues of the country.

The Financial issues of course being near and dear to the Mormon church. Why? Because the Mormon church has significant financial holdings in, or, owns several of the largest banking/credit enterprises in America. Of Course Romney has no interest in that little detail… Nudge, nudge, wink, wink.

Romney won NH because he was closer to addressing the real concerns of Americans.

This election year  the American People are far less concerned about so called “Hot Button” moral issues than they are about keeping or FINDING new jobs,Not losing their homes in foreclosures, and figuring out how to pay for the 2 wars we’ve been fighting for a Decade!


The saddest part, or perhaps the most disturbing part is that the GOP is so utterly checked out of “Normal” Americans lives.

Most of the Republican candidates know a whole lot about protecting the interests of the wealthy.

What’s amazing is that  they are so disconnected from their base, that they actually think they can win based on platform of Bible thumping, and Fag bashing.

I’m a cynic… I have a darker theory about what this system has become.

The debates have sounded more like tent revivals than discussions of solutions to the problems our country faces.

Several of the “So Called” candidates when asked any questions of substance have actually sounded like the Revival Tent Preacher who gets asked about the failure rate of his Miracles..

“Uh well, faith is powerful, and lack of faith is powerful… uhhh and Satan drives people to sin and sinners are punished. Uhh God is great.. uhhh… Next question….” as two big thugs hustle the questioning infidel out of the tent.

I think that Romney will be the Republican Nominee.

I’ve come to believe all the rest of the so called Republican candidates are there just to create the illusion of choice, while providing great reality TV.

After all, this whole process looks a lot more like “Survivor” than an actual process governed by the will of the people.

In November the election will pit Obama v. Romney… and Romney will win.

This will again be to convince the people that the Political system works and they have a choice….

Then in January 2013 Romney will take office and it will be business as usual.

And we’ll still be deep in the shit just as we are today…
