Would that be the Mittster? (Do they call him ‘Mitt’ because he fits so easily on the corporate iron fist?) Or some other sacrificial Republican? Sure, someone could emerge from nowhere but, if they strongly appeal to the GOP base, they aren’t ready for presidential primetime. As I think Bartcop wrote months ago, if the choice is between some Teabagger-kneeler seething with outrage and Obama, most people will choose the calm black guy. Aside from that, I think the Midwest is going solid blue next election, state and local elections included. The resentment for the GOP is palpable in WI, OH, IN, MI and MN. There are a lot of people in those states who work in the public sector, or are related to someone who is, and they aren’t happy. For the first time, I think you’ll see all of the firefighters and police unions in those states endorsing Dems next election.
I suppose they are all just side ring circus acts to keep the attention distracted until they find a viable puppet – uh candidate.
