Did You Hear About My Questions About the Next President?

Archie Brown has some questions about who will be his next president. Here are some of his observations and wonderings:

If Hillary wins the nomination, and I believe she will, it will be an interesting November. Nearly fifty percent of voters will never vote for her, seeing her as the epitome of evil.

I am not at all sure who will be the Rep. nominee. I tend to think it will be the candidate with the most money, Mitt Romney. I do not see much appeal for him among the base of the party, nor for McCain or Rudy. So the election will hinge on the turn out of voters. Will Republicans hold their nose and vote for a nominee they don't care for just to keep Hillary out?

Did You Hear About Romney's Speech on Religion?

Archie Brown read that Mitt Romney is making a speech today in Texas, reminiscent of the speech John Kennedy made in Houston in 1960. In that speech, Kennedy put to rest in the minds of many voters the fear that he would bring his Catholicism into his presidency. Romney is still feared by about one third of evangelicals that he will introduce his Mormonism into his governance. Archie wonders if Romney will be as effective today as JFK was in 1960.

Did You Hear About The First 100 Days of Nancy Pelosi?

Archie Brown is not a big fan of Nancy Pelosi, but she has gotten off to a typical start for a politician who has risen to new heights of power. Her legislative priorities that she promised to get to the president’s desk in the first hundred days of the new Democratic dominated Congress’s term have somehow become invisible. Her promise that the Congress would work five days a week, just like the American people, is nowhere to be seen. Three days a week is a stretch for them. Ms. Pelosi has been spending all this time trying to find ways to “payback” Republicans for the way they ran things from 1994 till this January.

So much for Ms. Pelosi! Archie just shakes his head and wonders if anyone in politics really cares about the country.
