Default Presidential Selection by Default

How I see it.

Rick Santorum
His faith is admirable. His projection of it on others is unacceptable. Similar to why a Muslim Brotherhood candidate is unfit to lead Egypt this guy is for America. Next.

Ron Paul
Americans have become far too dependent on government to support this guy. Unfortunately many of his plans and ideas will come to fruition naturally when the sown seeds of spending and printing are reaped.

Mitt Romney
The republican incarnation of President Obama, all show-no go and flip-flop come to mind when describing both. Both ‘company’ men, that is government before individuality. The only thing separating the two is businessman v. community organizer giving Mitt an edge, should he get the nom, on a business-biased track.

Newt Gingrich
Since Dems despise him and the Republican Party is only lukewarm he becomes my pick by default. Never thought I’d have much in common with those who voted for Obama three years ago but low and behold we do; Hope and Change. Despite an ethics investigation in his Congressional background, critics are focused on him asking his ex-wife for an open relationship, obviously indicative of how solid his political record is perceived among his detractors. Not that it matters but did Newt dump the wife because he was denied an open marriage or because she was diagnosed with MS? Because of my own personal experience with my father, the Gingrich children standing by him is all I need to know. Should this guy get the ultimate nod then paybacks are a biatch! Hear that Nancy?

No matter who the victor in the GOP primary is, they will once again be running against an abstract. Obama will likely invoke his, ‘I know things are bad but would be much worse without me’ which, this time around can be followed up with, ‘yea, how?’ For instance how is the average taxpayer better off with all the bailout/stimulus money spent on failing banks including foreign, mortgage companies, solar companies including foreign and automotive manufacturers, instead of on them? After all, it is THEIR money and $3 trillion goes a long way. Even when split between all 140 million tax filers. $21,428.57 or 65% of the country’s median yearly income to be exact.

BTW How can you streamline the juggernaut known as the US Government, save only $300 million a year and not terminate or layoff anyone? After all $300 million is just over half the money given to Solyndra and the entire 10 years savings equal the money given to Egypt and Pakistan over a couple months.
