Candidate? What Candidate?

So the GOP in all its collective brilliance has nominated Mitt Romney as their horse to run against Mr. anti-America (Barry). With so much at stake, you'd think they could have found the cajones to nominate a real candidate with a real message. The meat, or lack thereof in Mitt's message is the only thing noteworthy about the man.

Seriously though, Mitt's entire message is "we have to undo what he (Barry) did". His entire campaign could be summed up with one visual: a picture of Barry with a big red slash circle. This message will not resonate until he comes up with something far more bold and so far, Mitt has proven himself incapable of boldness. Where is the charisma? Why can't the GOP find among its many followers, a candidate with some meat and no baggage? Michelle Bachmann, Sarah Palin, Chris Christie...anyone with a pulse and a spine would be better than Mitt.

Oh well, it is what it is; another election cycle where we will choose the lesser of two evils. Granted, Hugo Chavez would be better suited to be President than the current buffoon at the helm but really, can't we as a Country do better?

Barack Obama is the ultimate poser, interloper, anti-American, sleazeball who can do nothing more than read a teleprompter with conviction. How the American public fell for his line of crap is just beyond any intelligent person's comprehension. Far be it for me to insinuate that I am smarter than the voting public but if the shoe fits...

Americans are generally just below dull normal on the intelligence scale when it comes to political awareness. I have an idea to solve this nagging issue though. From now on, we don't get to actually see or hear the persons running for the office. Each candidate will submit a detailed docier on their positions, their political philosophy and what they will do to fix this hopeless f*****g Country. We, as eligible voters will get six months to study and understand each candidates words. We will have to pass a twenty question test about the positions of each major candidate. If we pass that test with 90% or higher, we will be given a ballot. Problem solved.

Am I bitter? What do you think? Picture this; you have a piece of incredibly valuable real estate with a gorgeous home on it but it has been completely gutted over the last four years. You have only one task to handle before you move in: Refurbish and furnish the home. You have the choice between two decorators. Decorator number one is the family who spent the last four years wrecking the place. Choice number two is a guy who has made tons of money, ran several successful businesses, has a beautiful family but the last place he ran nobody really knows much about. He really has never decorated or the places he had responsibility for were much smaller and in obscure little neighborhoods. The lawns are impeccable but stories abound about the messes inside. Who do you choose?

Well, I'm going to choose the guy who at least has some modicum of success. People who succeed in business, must have brains enough to at least surround themselves with smart people. The current President has surrounded himself with thuggish slime balls. God Bless America...and please replace her President.
