Well, watched the Republican debate last night. It's a tough choice for a potential new leader. I really don't know whom I would choose. I guess Romney. Newt's just a little too Newt. Or something. Perry seems to get too much brain freeze. Santorum's too young. Paul's too old. Bachman is Bachman.
And then we look at Obama's 3 years. Total Dem control in Congress with the economy on the brink. OK, they did the stimulus and really, came up short on it. Then he decides to do health care. I think that was the deal he made for Ted Kennedy's endorsement. Unfortunately it took what, a year to get done? And who likes it? Then he chose financial regulation. And we got Dodd-Frank. What the hell, we can't even enforce Sarbanes-Oxley. Meanwhile, the economy clawed back what it could.
Then with the Republican comeback we got gridlock and patchwork government, no growth, deeper and deeper debt and brinksmanship.
He did get bin Laden. And Kadafi is gone. Iraq is over. Afghanistan seems controlled. But he lost Egypt it looks to Islamic extremism. And the drone tech to Iran.
Well, there's more to come. Fasten your seat belts.
