By now, the snow is no longer novel. \u00a0Our kind neighbor across the street cleared our driveway with his snowblower and another neighbor helped dig out one of our cars. \u00a0How nice to live in a neighborhood without discord and full of cooperation.<\/p>\n
I guess we really can’t analogize this spirit to the current Presidential race. \u00a0The best it can be described is “free-for-all”. \u00a0Indeed, I am stumped as to who these people are that are supporting Trump. \u00a0I don’t think I know any of them but I could be wrong. \u00a0Knowing my politics might dissuade friends and acquaintances from sharing their support of the xenophobic racist.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, Trump’s closest competitor, Cruz, is, in my opinion, worse. \u00a0Who could vote for these clowns to be the leader of the “free world?” \u00a0So desperate to get a Republican in the White House, will GOP voters sacrifice morality, ethics and common sense? \u00a0So far, that’s the direction they are headed. \u00a0I guess it’s cool to be angry and anxious to blame everyone else for your problems. \u00a0This is the appeal. \u00a0The anti-Obama ( and what I consider to be racist) folks have found their star: \u00a0Trump. \u00a0He rants and raves and expresses their frustration without saying anything except to cast blame. \u00a0Everyone has a flaw but the great Donald. \u00a0The superficial nature of his arguments is obvious. \u00a0But anyone who dares to challenge him is reduced to an asterisk.<\/p>\n
Scott Walker may have been prescient when he suggested that the low percentage candidates should drop out and coalesce around someone other than Trump or Cruz. \u00a0But egos, egos, egos. \u00a0Imagine Christie dropping out for the sake of his party. \u00a0So maybe they deserve what they get. \u00a0And if Hillary doesn’t make it on the Democratic ticket (she will), I would vote for Bernie in a heartbeat. \u00a0No contest!<\/p>\n
