re: #47 Coracle

I agree. And it’s going to be a close one. But I don’t think any Rep at this juncture can win.

Again, it’s about making out Obama as the second-coming of Carter, as being a “failure” upon whom all the problems of America right now can be pinned. And it’s likewise about continuing to pound home that the stimulus was a “failure” and that Obamacare is “bad” for America. Every one of his successes has been either marginalized or repainted as something that would make Orwell shiver in fright.

Sadly, I think Perry might be the best guy for the job. His proposals scare the ever-loving shit out of me, but when it comes to selling snake oil, he’s a genius.
