There have been two huge surprises for me in this election. First is that Obama won the Democratic nomination. Never would have imagined it. Second is that McBush would turn out to be such a horrendous candidate.
Yeah, I know he was a war hero. That much I respect. And there was a time when he was something of a maverick, but he decided to throw all of that away in the past few years.
The real shocker with him is his health. His doctors can say whatever they want to, but to look at McBush is to see a 71-year-old man going on 90. I’m sorry, but the guy is just out of it. We’re not going to put a senile old goat in the White House, regardless of how much we might have once respected him.
If I were a Republican, I’d be combing through the rule book to see if there was a way to replace him at the Republican convention. Keep him on the ticket, and you’re going to get a butt-kicking that you’ll feel for the next 30 years.
