GOP @)!@ ...(2012)

2012 that is.
Mitch Daniels, was my earliest hunch, Huntsman was a close second. Ron Paul was an early hope, but Gary Johnson beat him to the announcement. Now when I say hope, this is from the perspective that there be a good candidate for Republicans and the 2012 race, not that they should have any shot at being good for the country. This does not take into considerations any impact of a third party or independent candidate, or any political calculus. I don't find any references in a search of my blog but could have embedded some comment or link that may mention them. I associate Daniels with a Chris Matthews* comment, and Huntsman with some China controversy, while Paul and Johnson are libertarian. Which may be why I have been focused on economics and Ayn Rand. I would like to have a good de bait on neo-classical economics. It is hard to imagine Mitt Romney making it but then the longer the so-called libertarian or tea party candidate split the vote he or these guys could run the fish ladder, and it is hard to imagine a third party candidate that would not be just another spoiler. I don't want to do the political calculus to rock that boat.

* one reason I might scratch Daniels, but then again

March Madness

Normally this refers to Basketball,

which involves a tournament.

There are reasons Sarah Palin is not in the running.

She is only in the change game.

And that is a shame.

Simply put: Put up or shut up!

Get in the Republican race and you can have your debate.

Short of that, someone should accept her challenge.

And I don't mean Hillary or Katie*.

Meanwhile, Sarah Palin might do well to find out what a debate entails.

Even Comedy Central or MSNBC, should not be considered as early round qualifiers for the Final Four.**

* The Colbert Report or No Labels is not the shame, but Olympia Snow did come up. Being an enemy does not make you a candidate or a debater, let alone a journalist.

**Who would compete in this evolution?[i.e. Who would stoop to taking Sarah Palin serious let alone qualified to debate. Not that that would qualify her to advance to a final debate round. There was so much C-rap here, I thought I would d'ribble the punch line. Wouldn't we love Palin to actually debate*** someone of her watch-ama gotcha?]

Paradigm? still in draft...
a thought divided:
Theory of Peace?
Reality of Politics.
The preceding two lines are a pun on the paradigm in draft or rather on the references to uniting or dividing. It is obtuse because I have not included the Facebook comment for technical sake, but have summed it as noted. And of course reality is a concern for all of us, but politics? (Ouch, did not mean to transcend or actually hit the point of intersect.) And rather than embed a point in the bracketed hint, I will simply say may Chalmers Johnson RIP! If only it meant Rally in Progress!
BTW: The a4mentioned "still in draft" is in the 4M of raw notes, but I will by way of segue post the preface.[last link added 11-24-10]

Comparing an Error

And/or Era?

Baby Killer vs. the Great Society
The Texas Republican who shouted "baby killer" apologized as he was not speaking of Representative Stupak, just the bill. While the New York Times corrects Nobel Prize winner Paul Krugman, for saying Newt Gingrich was speaking about President Johnson and the Civil Rights Act, when he was speaking of the Great Society.

Minor corrections in both cases, but both seem to compound the point. As the blanks were needed filling, the former is still is for shame and the latter still for irony of whose Waterloo. On the darker side of irony there was the gauntlett congress bravely faced[*]to do their job, while the previous administration protected their leader from the signs of the times.

Moments before the historic signing moments I hear: Maybe the Republicans peaked too soon?
