Tuesday Primaries

I am going to bet on Mitt Romney to be the GOP frontrunner. Tonight he won Michigan and Arizona. The question is whether he'll be able to take President Obama on. On the surface, Mitt doesn't seem to have a snowball's chance in hell. His faux pas have been incredibly cubic. Starting with the dog on the roof of his car to his boast that he was not a fan of Nascar but knew several owners of cars in the race shows a classic rich guy who hasn't a clue.

Yet, many Americans are angry and disappointed with the economy, and President Obama will have a difficult time once the Repubs. unite under one leader, albeit a weak leader.

President Obama has the slow economy and rising gas prices as an enemy toward his re-election. Some say he should've been more aggressive toward union rights (as rights being taken by Republican legislatures and governors) early on. Now, he is 100% behind unions and that will be a unifying factor.

The rising gas prices have been horrendous. The president needs to move toward stopping the flood of price rises. He'll have to pull something out of his magic bag of tricks.

I can't imagine a President Romney. It doesn't trip off the tongue for a progressive Dem. like myself. I'll be watching this closely. In the meantime, it's been great fun watching the GOP evaporate with their Right wing ideas. Crazy, man, crazy!
