I am boycotting Fox News ... done with them.

Yep, I think the timing was off for Fred. Fred is a fine man, and I wish him the best. I’m sure Fred will be fine, as he wasn’t in it for the sake of power or ambition, and has a life beyond all this. It’s our nation I’m worried about.

Yes. He'll be fine. Like you, I don't think the nation will fare as well. We still have no uniter in the race. Romney [the one being pushed here as the lessor evil] will not be able to unite the base and his negatives in the national polls are too high for him to win the general by pulling crossover vote. And, of course, the nomination could still go to one of the others.

Without a brokered convention and the choosing of a nominee other than one of the candidates left in the race, we are in a lot of trouble. I don't hold out much hope of that, so I fear we just lost the White House in 08 and with it, judge appointments, the presidential veto, the war on terror, right to life issues, 2nd amendment issues, tax and spending limitation, and so much more.

I can't believe we are in this position going into an election against Hillary Clinton, whom we would have been able to beat...with an energized base and a unified GOP, neither of which we will have.
