I know it’s just an analogy, and they are never perfect, but you could well strike out a person and lose the game. The person on third could steal home. The person on first could steal 2nd, and then the catcher could miss the 3rd strike while the batter swings and then runs to first.

If it’s only one out, it might be more important to keep the guy on 2nd, and maybe you would be better to WALK the batter (Oh No, giving in to the other team!!!!), so that you have a chance for a double play or a force-out at third.

Baseball, as boring as it is, does have a degree of strategy, just like politics.

Silly. The point is, you prioritize your threats, and you deal with the MAJOR threat in front of your face. Right now, believe it or not, that's NOT abortion. It's real, live terrorists who want to kill ALL of us---adults, infants, born, unborn, everyone. That takes precedence in my view. It's the #1 issue, by far. Not even close.

And of the viable candidates (unless Fred T gets in) Rudy seems to have a lead in dealing with this issue. I'd love for someone else to come out and convince me otherwise on their positions, but Romney's C-PAC speech was lame on terrorism. McCrazy is just that. I don't think mentally he would have the stability to deal with the issue. And the other guys are flat unelectable.
