So Earl likes Myth Romney and Gomer Huckleberry? Lot of bravado in that column. The only reason LBJ wasn't defeated in 1968 was that he chose not to run. And as little regard as I have for FDR and Truman, Obama isn't fit to shine either man's shoes.

"The GOP Makes Obama’s re-election Easier by the Day"

No need to read past the headline to get the truth here. What else is new? :)

Before you shoot the messenger, just remember who the GOP nominated last time.

From the current list of wannabes, most of the top tier and 2nd tier would lose to Obama about as badly as McCain did.

The GOP list of wannabes just does not create much inspiration.

In several recent straw-type polls ‘Other’ was getting 80%.

In rapid succession it has ticked off millions with its bellicose threat to meat ax spending on every vital government program around and if it didn?t get the cuts it wanted shut down government.

As the PowerLine guys (oh no, a blog. Quick somebody call the blog cops) analysed, the Republicans are proposing triming one third of a french fry from the Big Mac value meal that is the federal budget. And they don't even touch entitlements.

This idiot describing minuscule (and ineffectual) micro surgery like that as "meat ax", only demonstrates the outlandish extent of his demagoguery, not to mention stupidity. Or maybe he just got the same DNC memo that Ried and Schumer got.

IF the republican party shoves Romney down our throats, Zero will win again! Too many conservatives against Romney, we need someone fresh with solid conservative ideas who will stand behind them & NOT reach across the aisle!!!!

At this point, I resent that we are even having to purchase the toilet paper the Obamas use.

Looks pretty weak at this point, that's true. Remember that's where the 'Rats were prior to '92. GHWB had a 90+% approval rating and the major 'Rat candidates were hiding in the weeds. So they trot out some cracker retread as a "sacrificial" candidate and the SOB wins with the help of an all-in media and a recession.

We won't have the media, of course, in '12. It goes without saying that they'll be all-in for Obortion, enough that it'll make their campaign for Clinton a piker by comparison. But we may have a recession/bankruptcy/dollar collapse, and if a decent GOP candidate emerges, one with the guts to say and do what has to be done, we may, just may, have a chance, but given the sheeple are what they are, I am inclined to doubt.

Name one time ever in the history of the nation that the list of opposing party candidates supposedly inspired. 1991 maybe? Nope. Go read the clippings from the time. "There is nobody decent running" is the most predictable, vapid, and downright silly thing people say every four years.

Everybody looks small in a crowd. Barry looks small alone on the stage. Pawlenty, for one, would mop the floor with him.

1. Cuts to the federal budget -- one main reason why GOPers were elected in such huge numbers in the first place.

2. The GOP wants to shut down government? Uh.. no, genius. If you've paid attention, it's the DEMS who welcome a shutdown in government.

3. If the sheeple are so concerned about the GOPers actually fulfilling their campaign promises, then they can vote in 2012 to unseat them and reinsert the democrats who they defeated in November... because those dems had done such a stellar job while in power.

I agree with your assessment. I sure didn’t nominate McCain last time though. The media helped him get nominated. You watch this time, the media will be behind Romney.

It is a little embarrassing for her supporters that Palin presently appears to be digging a candidacy vaccum for herself with both hands, exemplified by her myriad of examples, which by now are clear as a bell to all observers. She is not running. And the continuing coyness about that fact is looking less and less attractive, especially as the energy aura around her wains more and more.

Now to this article. It could be turned on a dime and aimed squarely at the socialist/marxist candidate Obamarak. Communists are not always geniuses themselves, and these particular ones have no plan whatsoever, beyond voting “PRESENT” with great urgency. No plan, after a year gone by where they presented no budget, but cheerfully formed a deficit commission, presented its findings, and with much ceremony followed it up with absolutely no further interest, and certainly no implementation. Now that’s entertainment.

Is there a single line of this blustering column that could not just as well be reversed, to finger the nitwits of the democrat party? I think not.

The GOP are still in the driver’s seat for now.

Just think of the GOP names that immediately come to mind when the 2012 presidential campaign is mentioned, Trump, Cain, Palin, Bachman, Newt Gingrich, Pawlenty and then think this. The GOP makes Obama’s re-election easier by the day.

With this list he's exactly right...

We cannot let the Democrats choose our candidate for us. That’s what they’re trying to do, with the MSM’s full compliance. Sadly, it appears that the Beltway/Elite Republican Establishment has seemingly all but conceded the election already.

Every one of them, even Speaker Gingich and Gov. Pawlenty (my two least favorite in that group) is HEAD AND SHOULDERS above the current de facto president. Or are you buying what the jourbalists are selling? Every one of them, save for Reps. Bachmann and Gingrich, has run a state or a large corporation. Mr. Obama hadn’t run so much as a sno-cone stand before he was elected to the White House.

I agree with the author. Obama has this next election in the bag and so does the entire democrat party. As a matter of fact, they should just take it easy. Why even bother to campaign? Just relax and read the teleprompter and continue to pursue a radical leftist agenda all the while knowing full well that the next election isn’t about the incumbent and his performance. Oh no, its a referendum on the Tea Party. Who is up after Libya?/s
