Jumby, you win with the “it’s all related” line, I will now go stand in my place that you put me in.
You know that every president we have ever elected has been a white male christian with the exception of a single catholic and it took almost 200 years to get that one. I fear along with Bunny that Huckabee vs. Edwards will be your choice come November. It was shaping up nicely, quite the mix, a woman, an african american with a muslim name, a mormon, an actor, lots of variety and it looked like something different this way comes. But what we east and west coast folks tend to forget is the middle of the country. Personally I opt to avoid anything between Arizona and New York and I’m a lifelong registered Republican. But even California Republicans don’t really feel a part of their party, most of us are just too lazy to change parties because the other side has nothing better to offer. In my adult lifetime, only Reagan and Bill Clinton were good presidents overall, each had their faults but their merits outweighed them, since then I root for the nutballs. Don’t discount the middle of the country, you aren’t one of them so you can’t understand how they think. There a re plenty of people who pay to see Nascar events and pay per view UFC fights and consider gravy a food group, the reality is that there are more of them than us, we get who they pick.
