Monday Musings: May 17, 2010
Monday, May 17, 2010 at 16:39 Oh, I’m so very tired of the sound and fury so very early in the process. I refer to the upcoming Republican primary for both Governor and Senate.
Somewhere out there, I can visualize the few rational old-timey Republicans, sadly shaking their heads about so many voters being disaffected - or just plain gagging in unison with the Dems - over the poor choices we get … candidates that are beholden to special interests or the extreme wingnuts.
If I believed we could slap them into conscious action, I’d so be there.
The sham anti-Sandoval ads are at it again. Telling us that the sham front organization doesn’t speak for the campaign insults our intelligence. Don’t the Reid people get it?
Now, the above concept has been lifted from the ‘weathervane’ ad against Bradley Byrne down in Alabama- where the GOP not only marries their first degree relatives, but attempts to destroy them politically. And, considering how sleazy they both are, you might be forgiven for wondering if they’re by the same equally sleazy political machine.
Reid is obviously sleeping soundly at night, safe in the belief that Liberals and Progressives would have serious qualms about voting even for a Republican ‘moderate’ that can’t seem to decide which side of the fence he’s on. Uh, maybe … maybe not.
This ‘weathervane’ approach by Sandoval tells me that he’s just not into the Tea Party ( a good thing ), but would like to have it both ways.
