I see that the media torpedoed Newt last weekend with the "I was impeaching Clinton while having an affair" quote. As I told my wife, "Newt is one of the most qualified people to be president." and she said, "Yeah, but it'll never happen. The press will tear him down while pushing Obama down our throats."

So the most qualified candidates are smeared (ie McClintock and Gingrich) and the most unqualified candidates are glorified (Swartzenegger and Obama).

Maybe the time is right for GEN X and others to form our equivalent of the Bull Moose party.

Maybe the time is right for GEN X and others to form our equivalent of the Bull Moose party.

The Bull Moose Party was very effective. Unfortunately, it was effective in electing Woodrow Wilson, the only Democrat President in a 36-year period of Republican domination. Personally, I'd rather work on reforming the Republican Party for now. It'll be hard, but not impossible.

Maybe if we manage to break the Democrat Party one day we can start a new party. I vote we bring back the Whigs.
