Super Tuesday arrives

Well, here we are.  You’ve only thought it’s been election season so far.  Hammer down today.

Defeating such an arrogant, divisive, unloved, and ineffective sitting president should be almost a layup.  However, the Republicans have infused the contest with needless drama by dragging a less-than-optimal field of candidates to the party (see also:  Democrats, 2004).

But, we have what we have.  I told Saintseester yesterday over sushi that a big part of me would be pulling for closure today.  I remembered Jonah Goldberg’s column pointing out that President Romney would be on a very short leash.

“A president who owes you is better than one who owns you.” – Jonah Goldberg

Indeed.

Dudes and dolls, I’m not so good at the cheerleader thing.  I’m much more in my element as a cynical smart-aleck type, watching for the women who laugh the loudest and longest and then further tailoring my shtick to them.  (‘Cause, you know, I have a woman fetish.  Heh.)

But I’m going to try a little bit here.  If you don’t want Barack Obama to win a second term, you’re going to have to discover and nurture your inner happy warrior.  I know your candidate’s not in the race.  Mine isn’t either.  I know you don’t trust Romney.  I don’t either.  But I distrust him much less than I do four more (read:  nothing to lose!) years of the most unhinged president in history.  (Plus, he’s actually sounding pretty good on foreign policy.)

Whether it’s today or a little later, it’s going to be Mitt Romney.  Let’s please all row in the same direction—and enthusiastically—when that time comes.

  1. Listening to Newt at the Space and Rocket Center.

    Updated: what a rousing speech! But, of course, it would be. I hope I’m as bad at picking this one as I was in ’08. Sure would love to vote for Newt in November.

    Photos and dedicated post tonight.
