The Presidential Primary Mess

Is it possible that in the firt 3-4 primaries we could actually have different winners in each? Iowa was a surprise. I mean, really, it was. Are the American people finally standing up for themselves. Romney and Clinton both think they can BUY the election because they have the most money, yet both of them got beat handily in Iowa. Obama. Wow. Huckabee, not so wow. Listen, I don't want to be predicting anything, but a democrat is going to win the presidential election. There is not one republican candidate that has shown they can beat a democratic candidate. I dont want Obama to be president. I dont want clinton to be president. I damn sure dont want edwards to be president. However, I can honestly say that I dont want any of the republicans to be president. Mccain will let the flood gates open up for illegal aliens. Romney is a snake in the grass. If he wins, we will have a decent economy, but the rich will benefit the most. Giuliani is a moron. Everything he says in the debates and forums is about 9-11. Ron Paul is insane, but amazingly, I probably agree most with some of his ideas (so i guess im crazy, but i like to think I am a constitutionalist). Fred Thompson has been the biggest disappointment to me of anyone. Fred, what the hell? Why are you running for president. You dont seem to even care when you are up there answering questions. I think he is the best choice, but you have to be able to rally people behind your cause. No one even knows what Fred's about, because he hasnt told us.

While I dont remember the 70's too well (i was a late 1979 baby) from what history tells me, we are in nearly a mirror image of what was going on then. Republican corruption leads to an ineffective democratic president (jimmy carter) who won because he was the candidate of change and a likable guy (ala obama and huckabee). Iran is knocking on our doorstep (the republican national guard confronted some of our navy ships in the gulf over the weekend, trying to set off world war III i would guess) gas prices are at an all time high, inflation is creeping up and up, and we have a very unstable economy (that the government tells us is strong, oh its so strong, wake the hell up!) and Russia and Red China are becoming more agressive towards us than ever before. Hmm, what the hell do we do? We have a bunch of people running for president that are going to lead up further towards this path of crisis. The only candidate that I would trust with our security in the future is john McCain, because he understands the stakes, and has actually lived through war and been a POW. He is a true american hero, however, I'm not sure he could beat a democratic front runner (even though through his policies, he may as well be a democrat with the McCain-Feingold legislation, McCain-Kennedy legislation, etc)

So what do we do? I don't know. I think we should all stock up on guns and ammo, canned food, and build a bunker to climb in because it may come to that in the next 10 years. Hopefully though, maybe Jesus will come back and I'll be caught up in the rapture (if Im lucky). Good night.
