Like knuckle balls, politics and history tend to move in erratic and unpredictable ways. We may take heart though that Romney unexpectedly picked a conservative for his running mate and embraced the fundamentals of his plan for Medicare reform.

If Romney and Ryan win and GOP House and Senate candidates do well, they will have a mandate for entitlement reform and the political capacity to carry it out. Add in tax reform and rate cuts, regulatory reform, the development of domestic oil and gas resources, more assertive foreign and defense policies, and an economic recovery, and the Romney administration will look an awful lot like a return of the Reagan years.

Moreover, unlike the Reagan era, there will be a Republican Congress with a VP heir apparent who is even more conservative than the President. I am not an optimist by nature, but I am full of hope these days.

Well, knuckle ball, spit ball or in your ear ball, I’m still not going to vote for an abortionist/homosexualist statist and all that liberal progressivism entails. Thanks anyway.

We are the resistance!!
