The Problem With The Republicans: So Many Candidates, So Few Brain Cells And Terrible Ideas



As I look down the long list of GOP candidates who have stepped onto the campaign trail to the White House, I’m quite the ecstatic liberal that thus far the Republicans don’t have a single good contender running for President.

They’ve had eight full years to come up with a candidate and unsurprisingly they’ve got nobody worth a damn. Nada. Zilch. Eight years of endless griping, fear-mongering, and shooting down everything the President proposes but not a single leader among them.

I’m not surprised by this at all, as much as the “leaders” of the party do cut down the President for his policy, they don’t have plans of their own as to how the country should be run. They only think they know how not to run the country and that’s kind of a problem for a candidate whom half the country is looking at for leadership.

But half the country is actually rooting for these guys <sigh>.
