CPAC - Romneybots and Browbackshirts
 |
James Joyner | Friday, March 2, 2007 |
I rather like Sam Brownback but don’t consider him a plausible presidential candidate. I find Mitt Romney rather smarmy and opportunistic, even by politician standards.
Until arriving at CPAC, though, I had no ill feelings about either of them. After two days of barely being able to walk around the convention center without some idiot teenager in a t-shirt shouting at me or hitting me with a poster, invariably imploring me to vote for either Brownback or Romney, though, I would sooner vote for Ralph Nader than either of those men.
So far, however, I have refrained from violence. So far.

Philosophically, Nader is much closer to your libertarian sympathies than either of those two candidates.
Half of Romney's speech turns out to be making fun of Massachusetts, which I think just makes him look cheesy and like a jerk, considering he just spent four years pledged to the state. I guess he didn't mention to the voters that he thought the state was an embarrassment.

Give in, James! Give in to the rage! Lord knows the GOP's chances would be better in '08 without either of those two idiots muddying the waters for - hey, waitaminute....
