Poor Righties

...it's as tough being a rightie today as it was being a leftie in 2004. Not only are the political winds against them, but, now that Giuliani has imploded, the only clear good (R) leader in the race has gone liar and demagogue like our Dean did in 04. Nobody's constructing a strong coalition. And we have TWO strong candidates.

Stephen Green's / Vodkapundit's been doing most of this year's campaign coverage drunk. And in the last (R) debate, I notice Tigerhawk joined him in a drink or two. And here's what Reynolds had to say:

I tuned in long enough to see Romney answer a question on the Second Amendment and . . . well, it was a good Massachusetts answer. That was all I could take -- surely there's a Girls Next Door rerun or something.

And this is just sad. I'm one of the few Dems who thinks Rice has ability, but this is a bit much (and BOLTON?? - there's a candidate who'd do the ticket about as much good as Quayle).

Debates on both sides have me knocking down a few adult beverages. It is campaign fatigue for me, though. The thought of this campaign dragging on past Feburary 5th might drive me to deeper drinks. The only positive would be if a convention is actually noteworthy with a floor fight for the nomination in either or both parties.

This old cynic is just glad he is no longer living in Central Florida. I think the criss-crossing of candidates this week would have driven me crazy.

As far as Rice for President goes, count me out. State department or national security are places I feel comfortable with her. I'm not sure I want someone who has not dealt with domestic issues on an active basis.

You will notice nobody bothered to dignify my Bolton suggestion in the comments...

Go FRED!

Rice's career is woefully undistinguished. People were glad to see her go at Stanfurd.
Her stint in security an obvious failure,nevermind the public prevarications following 9/11. Since this administration rewards failure with more responsibility they put her in State, where not much goes on for a long time until Rumplestiltskin wakes up and goes, "oh, yeah, legacy. Dang! I knew there was something I forgot. Send in Condi."
