The start of The Republican Primaries begin in January and many need to stop and look at these candidates and what they represent, or bring to the race. But as you do that, you better take a real good look at who you think has a chance to knock out an incumbant President!. In my opinion looking at it in that fashion, or way very few will honestly compete with Obama and be able to debate or handle him on issues.
Say what you will on President Obama, you can love him, or hate him, he does make America look stronger, he does work to stabilize it. He did get a Health Care Law through when all before him could not. He wants to shore up Social Security and Medicaid not tear them down. He gave many Americans a way to save their homes and survive. In the end he is also working on the jobs problem, and getting us out of wars, we didn’t belong in. That tells me he did a lot better than any Republican wanted him to.
The question now becomes do the Republicans have one candidate who can balance as many items or juggle as many items and make us look better in the world, than Obama did?. My Answer is no!, No?, Hell No!.
Among those left, in my book the following Republican Candidates shouldn’t even still be in the race, Rick Perry is number 1 in my book he should go home. Rick Santorum is a good enough person, but lacks the political power or push to win anything, maybe next time around for him. Ron Paul is too radical and wild to win the nomination, he is not conservative enough or stable enough read his speeches and answers in debates. Sadly, I must also say Michelle Bachman, even though she has said some brilliant things so far and stands tall for womanhood, and believe me I like her running, is not going to get a Republican Nomination for president, if the Democrats didn’t give theirs to Hillary in o8, well you get the idea.
This leads us to the few remaining I have not named yet, Mr. Gingrich and Mr. Romney. Mr. Gingrich’s faults and past are now starting to seep out through the wood work so to say. Little things start the snow ball effect in the end that will bury him. You can’t be married three times, have political baggage and so many problems and hide them for ever, the American people will uncover it all soon enough.
This leave one man standing in my opinion, Mr. Mitt Romney and he has some baggage himself from his home state, but he is the least of all evils in my book. Can he win the nomination, I think he will, due to the political baggage and nastiness of the other candidates on the Republican side, as well as the lack of experience for some too. If Mr. Romney brings his family values to the plate . uses his immediate family in the election and speaks honest straight talk he can win. For the rest will stumble, falter, speak out of turn or be disregarded by the party for different reasons. We shall have to see, soon in January who fails to survive?
