If lying is the only way to win as you so cynically claim, then I don’t want to win. But the people who want to be lied to will vote for Obama no matter what. He can have them. Beyond that crowd of cultists, give Anericans a little credit. They know our budget situation is unsustainable and Ryan is just the man to provide the solution and to show them why we need to get serious now and not just leave it for some future more courageous president to solve. Read the piece on Drudge right now about how Ryan became the intellectual leader of the GOP. It shows he’s brilliant at making the case about the need to get our nation’s/ finances in order and what it will mean if we don’t to voters. This is a great pick that now makes this a big election about big things. It becomes now an election about the nation’s future, not just about holding power for the sake of holding power like Obama, while doing little to move the country forward with that power. Romney wins that kind of election, Obama wins an election about small things.
And Ryan is an adult pick and a courageous one. The guy is scary smart and is imminently capable of taking the reigns if it became necessary. If he’s not qualified to be president, no one is.
Excellent reply. I agree with everything you said.
Ryan can easily explain even to brain-dead kids that their future is being financially destroyed by the Give Away Government of The Disaster.
