Democrats: the Randy Hickeys of politics?
I love My Name Is Earl. It’s well written, the characters are unique and play well against each other, it’s humorous, and it has a good message. Earl is the get-things-done brother. Picks something to do, finds a way to do it, gets it done. His brother Randy is a big lovable guy that’s still figuring things out when Earl is already off to the races.
For the last several months Clinton and Obama have been wasting loyalist’s dollars fighting each other. McCain has been quietly ensuring people vote republican. It’s the same damn thing every year, isn’t it? There were three major democratic candidates in 2004 and two in 2000. Maybe I’m being revisionist but I only remember one republican candidate from that time: GWB.
By fighting each other they are only strengthening McCain’s position. They’re wasting money, reducing voter confidence in the democrats, and killing time when they could be out campaigning.
Think about it this way: while Obama and Clinton are out courting the delegates, McCain is out courting the voters. I wonder which one will matter more, on election day?
If I were american I’d still vote for Randy but, god bless him, he’s not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
