I held my nose and voted for John McCain. I respect his service to our Country, he made sacrifices that I cannot begin to imagine. Thank you, Mr. McCain. However, you were a lousy candidate against the likes of B.O. You had no cohesive strategy. You were chosen simply because it was your turn. The only intelligent thing that you did in the years that you were advocating for the job was to choose Governor Sarah Palin as your running mate. I found her a breath of fresh air, and the perfect antidote to your endless political career. She has wonderful ideas, you sir, wanted to sit in the Oval Office. That was the some extent of your plan. But, being a Republican (at the time) I stood in line and voted for you, even though you really were not that inspiring. You let b.o. get away with many, many lies. You never challenged him on any of the things that you should have. If that was your best campaign sir, I pity Arizona. Perhaps you should retire.
2012 found a field rich with conservatives. I was a little disappointed that Mrs. Palin chose not to run, but I completely understood why she didn't. The mere thought of her running had the msm in hyper overdrive. They unabashedly smeared her family, her children and any one else that came near her. It was disgusting to watch the double standard in play. One by one, the best and brightest in the pack were singled out and destroyed both personally and professionally until the only one left was Governor Romney.
Governor Romney outspent his opponents in ratios of 12 to 1 at times. He insinuated, smeared, tarnished, and flung poo like a bored monkey at the zoo. I had hoped for Herman Cain, Speaker Gingrich, Governor Perry, Congresswoman Michele Bachman (nice hatchet picture of her, by the way msm) anyone but Governor Romney. I had made up my mind to sit the vote out until he chose Paul Ryan, a fiscal rockstar and all around amazing human being.
The msm which had been nothing short of adoring of Mr. Romney, turned on him like they were pitbulls and he was a guy in a meat suit. I still don't care if he had binders, files, or post-it notes of eligible qualified women. I do care that he was smart enough to chose Paul Ryan as his running mate. I found myself again voting for the second person on the ticket.
Now comes Governor Christy. The man I blame more than any other for going all in and making the worst thing since Carter look compassionate and presidential. He alone, I believe caused the election to go the way that it did. That, and 112% turnout in some areas. Oh, and the districts where not one person was befuddled by the voting machine and accidentally pushed the wrong button. Not one! Wow, that was some good community organizing, wasn't it?
So Governor Christy got his billions + payoff for New Jersey. B.O. got some tailwind that carried him limping over the finish line, possibly even winning. And now Christy wants to consider a run for the White House.
No thank you, sir. You've done enough.
So remember the rinos when 2016 rolls around. You'll thank me later.
