Delaware Liberal

Friday Open Thread [8.10.12]

This is so delicious it has to be fattening.

“At this point, joining Ryan to the ticket would be a huge gamble. Romney would be tapping into Ryan’s immense political talent, but giving up on his win-by-default strategy that has taken a beating but might look good again if, say, some international disaster craters the recovery between now and November. In any case, the conservative drumbeat for Ryan has grown so overwhelming that it’s no longer even clear that Romney could turn Ryan down for an Incredibly Boring White Guy, even if he wants to. The Republican Party belongs to Ryan.”

What an incredibly weak man Mitt Romney is. He has been bullied by the right wing of his party for years. And because he has no principles and no core other than his greed and ambition, he gladly gave in to the extreme right at every opportunity. And now, during the most important presidential decision a presidential candidate can make, it looks like Mitt Romney is revealing to all of us exactly how he will act as President: like a frightened coward scared of the extreme right. Mitt will do everything the right asks of him. Just like Grover Norquist and others have said.

Alright ladies and gentlemen, I am off for vacation for the next week. I have scheduled all the Daily Delawheres every morning, but my excellent colleagues will keep you entertained. Please don’t burn down the state in my absence. I know where everything in Delaware is placed and will know if you guys have a party.
