Bloviating Zeppelin: Wyoming: GOP

Bloviating Zeppelin

(in-ep-toc'-ra-cy) - a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.

Wyoming: GOP

In Saturday's Wyoming GOP caucuses, the results:

Romney: winner. Huckabee: zero.

Of course, you could say that, after all, it's only Wyoming. Demorats don't even have their cauci until March 8th.

But a Huckabee Tsunami?

Not convinced.

Bloviating Zeppelin said...: And therein, Mark, lies the rub. At a time when GOP and/or Conservative voters are less inclined to go with someone who isn't completely in line with their thinking, the GOP simultaneously seems to be moving from moderation to the Left on any number of issues -- issues that would make yesterday's Democrats look Conservative and today's Republicans appear pure Left.

I know that I'll never find a candidate in lockstep with me; that's a given. What disappoints is the GOP's concomitant abandonment in bits and chunks of CONSERVATIVE principles.

For Christ's sake, NONE of the GOP will even say what Ron Paul just had the nards to (though he'll piss off his hardcore Libertarian base) say: NO more anchor babies in this country.

My God, am I gonna have to look to RON PAUL as a candidate? Endorsed by Truthers and KKK devotees?

Mark said...: well, we had Hunter and Tancredo, but neither one got any support, why, I don't know, because either one of them were better than the others we still have in the running on border issues. guess the border is not that big a deal to many in the GOP. but.... Romney, Huck, Giuliani and Fred all say they want to secure the border now, why don't you believe them?; Sun Jan 06, 11:29:00 AM PST
Rivka said...: That is great to see Hunter in the top 3 for a change, you know.. the MOST conservative of all.; Sun Jan 06, 12:53:00 PM PST

He's not endorsed, he had a picture taken.

Good God, Bush had his picture taken with the leader of the people that killed 3000 American, hell he had him over for dinner.

Ron Paul was good enough for Reagan, maybe we should at least take a look.; Sun Jan 06, 04:24:00 PM PST

I guess because it was republican the MSM didnt see fit to bother to report it.; Mon Jan 07, 07:54:00 AM PST
Anonymous said...: McCain/Paul! OR Paul/McCain. Paul's for a closed border (unlike Huck, who caved into the liberals on immigration). Ron Paul also respect the Constitution (unlike Romney---or apparently Roody), and could win moderate voters. Paul might also prevent McCain from turning Iran into glass.

Check out these Bay Area freaks (if you can stomach it). That's the sort of rats CA conservatives and libertarians are up against.; Mon Jan 07, 03:45:00 PM PST

: Name: Bloviating Zeppelin; Location: Sierra Nevada Mountains, Fornicalia, United States

A former Democrat in my tender and ignorant youth, I am now a Conservative first and, these days, quite a distant Republican with a dash of Libertarian mixed in for good measure. I believe in God, the strength of America, the brilliance of our Founding Fathers, the valor of our military, and the need for Leadership in all forms and on every level. I am not an advocate of censorship as I believe everyone on the Far Left has a God-given right to be painfully stupid -- as I have a right to expose said stupidity.
