Let’s say you were looking for a Bing Crosby movie, and your two choices were Wal-Mart and Best Buy (just cause Barnes and Noble is way on the other side of town). Now, Bing Crosby movie. Which of the two would you think was more likely to carry the movie?
Sure, Wal-Mart. That’s what I thought. So I went there first, and nope, not only did they not have it, they didn’t have a single Bing Crosby movie.
Best Buy did. And I think that’s just … odd.
Kentucky Dan wrote a good article about recent polls and their interpretation. You should go read it. However, I want to use something he said as a springboard:
Hillary Clinton and according to Rasmussen’s Hillary Meter:
Support Falls to 2005 Low[ . . . ]
So the Democrats are going to have to find another best hope. All the pronouncements about a Decline in Bush’s approval rating are meaningless if the Democratic Party’s is lower.
I’ve been saying all along that Hilary is not electable, and I’m not wavering from that. She’s not, for two reasons. First, no matter how hard she tries to appear “moderate” and do a Bill Clinton, she just can’t keep her yap shut about her socialist ideology. Second, the Democratic base has moved so far to the left that her attempts to appear “moderate” will kill her chances.
That’s good news. Here’s the bad news. We don’t have an electable candidate, at least now, and unless something changes, we won’t. Frist’s lack of … er … intestinal fortitude will keep him from winning the nomination. McCain doesn’t have any more chance of it now than he ever did, perhaps less. Clueless conservative bloggers like Giuliani, but there’s no way he, Romney, or Pataki will ever get near the White House. Condi would be a hell of a candidate, but she’s not going to run. Neither is Cheney.
We have George Allen, who is electable, but he should be getting his name in the papers. He’s not, and nobody knows who he is, or anything about him.
Right now, prospects for both parties in 08 are pretty grim.
I was listening to the radio the other day, and apparently, bear season here is just over. The three largest bears killed this season were from here, as in this county.
Uh, okay. Not sure how I feel about that, but I think we’ll find some sturdier trash cans.
