Romney, most likely.

I will not promise he will win. I neither know nor care who else supports him. I am not happy about voting for him. However, I think he can be hammered into form, for the most part. As with President Bush, he will do things I really do not like. He, like Bush, will have to be forced to do “the right thing”, sometimes. He will have a different view from us peons, but look, he is running for president, we are peons *laughs* (if darn rich peasants, and believe as we do that we are far above our real stations (though, too, we are “above our station”… we are Americans, freemen)), go figure. He is more liberal than I care to understand. Actually, his Mormonism is a plus, his liberalism is his problem for me. With enough groveling on his part, and enough of an enjoinment with the conservative aspects of the party (meaning proper cabinet members and advisers, I will need to see that happening), he might do.

Sure, I was for Thompson after I was against him. But really, he was a weak fourth choice for me when everything shook out. But in truth, third, actually, as one of the four was actually never in the race (and that was satisfying to me because he stalled too long while deciding whether to enter the race, and, I had hoped Thompson would stay out too, for a similar reason as well as his modest claim to conservativism.) Such is politics. Yes, it sounds crazy, but like any plan, it was a great plan while it lasted… which ended up being shorter than even the start of the darned race.

As well, I thought I should add this. I have had great anger regarding President Bush. Darned Texan got on my nerves more than once. He seemingly missed some very important points, and often kissed the wrong hands in his political romances. But every man we send to the White House will do so. As well, every man we send there should do so. (No, I do not like that either, hush, my story… comment if you have something to say.) I do not vote for a slaves, I vote for leaders. Once he takes his place, he is on autopilot and will do what he believes is correct, using more information than I have, with my and your and that stinking liberal hippies' welfare in mind, all of our welfare in mind as best as he is able with what power he has. Which means he has to do for the hippie as he does for me, if he does slightly more for me than not… that last bit is only a hope and then only in certain areas (why would he make me safer than the hippie?).

In President Bush’s case, he really was a decent conservative, not perfect, decent. And, more, he is the first president since President Reagan, and President Eisenhower before that who I could respect across the board. Clinton, Carter, Ford, Nixon, LBJ, Kennedy, disgusting or weak, people who just happened to be where they were when someone was needed or criminally elected miscreants. Drugs, stupidity, timidity, illegality, lust, criminality, and corruption are all I have to say about those. Yes, not only has President Bush, and his father, been a good man, they have been good family men. Their wives have been powerful ladies, but ladies indeed. The wives have had ideas, supported programs, but more, they supported their men, their husbands, and their whole families first. I have been pleased to have these people, as people, represent my nation domestically and internationally.

I can see that last bit more with Romney, much more than with Thompson, if Thompson might have been a bit more conservative (questionable). I do think Romney is a bit slick looking, yet I am making some room as I am seeing him look more human in his exhausting run. As I see my choices dwindle, it is down to writing in a candidate or Romney. I thought if Thompson dropped, I would fold, but I have changed my mind. As I think about this last… I wonder… By their fruits will they be known… Sorry Fred, Romney has you there. But, Lord knows, McCain and Rudy are horrid choices that way as well.

I am taking a break from study. I have studied off and on all weekend for my test later today. It is supposed to rain, freeze, slush, then snow before class, so I am not sure it will happen. Still, I would rather be ready than be wrong. I have rewritten my notes and redone my homework twice, and am about to hit it again. I did not really have time to try some of those problems I wrote down which were extras, but they will get done. If nothing else, I want them for my final review. Well, off I go. Oh, I believe I am finished pouting. Not sure what that was really about… a little anger at the slow blogging (he is lying), but I think more an ongoing frustration with my tobacco thing. Well, I am happy to be pissed, it means I am winning that fight.

Blessings. And yes, even if I do not agree with you, heck, even if you or I do not like the other… I do love you. Once again, blessings.

  1. Hope the weather turns out better than predicted and good luck with the test.
    My mood has taken such an unexpected dump that I took yesterday and today off work. Not good. I am truly tired of these moods. My head wants to explode in anger. I know this will pass again, but the process sucks.

  2. School has been canceled. More time to prepare, but... we are now two labs behind on top of a test and 3 days lost. Well, what can one do?

    Wow, ok. I did not realize your moods were going into rage(?). That is spooky ground around here. I hope I am not a party to that, though if you are like me, it just is. There might be triggers, but whether you know them or see them consciously might be tricky. I am better, a lot better, but that came through guidance and a bit of honesty.

    Is it an anniversary, or do you know what the source is? Look, I'll tuck a prayer in for you. It's all I've got, but I am told it is pretty potent.

  3. There are a couple of triggers at play, but I thought I had it under control. Apparently, I let down defenses too soon, thinking it had passed.
    Thanks for the prayers.
