Today we were treated to an obviously staged event at the 2008 Cpac (Conservative Political Action Conference) in, of all places, Washington D.C. The location ought to tell us all we need to know as we all know what happens to conservatives when they wander into that sector. Something mysterious. A thick, semi-transparent membrane forms over them. They can see light coming from the other side and can hear us normal folk but they can’t decipher what we’re saying. Sometimes they hear a scream or shouting, but not to worry, nothing intelligible. Anyway they’re too busy doing the work of the people. Right! Anyway back to the Cpac meeting in DC. This was an attempt by the party hierarchy, the elites, to “unify” the party again. Even poor Gov. Romney decided to step aside for the good of the party. To heck with standing up for conservative principles and hanging tough all the way to a brokered convention. And then demanding that certain conservative planks be nailed firmly in place with the threat of running as an independent if ignored. No we simply don’t have candidates with that sort of brash courage. Its all about not upsetting “the party”. To heck with the voters and the nation.
I listened today to the raucous applause from the obvious plants within the Cpac audience during McCain’s speech - disgusting. Staged. Choreographed . Hand picked gallery members chosen for their vocal abilities and always right on cue. Do they really think we’re that stupid? Apparently so. And lets not forget the last inspirational speech Sen. McCain gave at the 2004 convention. After which he went right back to his divisive RINO ways.
What was absent today in the news? The silence was deafening. Huckabee! I’ve said from the beginning that there is some sort of strange momentum in/around/about the Huckabee campaign pushed along, despite itself, by some unmoved mover. So what about Huckabee, as McCain is proclaiming victory behind the Cpac podium? Prematurely in my opinion. And what about all of Romney’s delegates? Who gets them? Where do they go? Do they simply disappear? Well its certainly unwise to assume that all of those delegates would/should go to McCain. Who knows? But its going to be fascinating to watch what happens over the next week or so. I simply can not envision Mike Huckabee laying down like a doormat for John McCain. Not as long as there is even the most remote smell of victory in the air. Watch Huck stiffen up his backbone and head back out onto the canvas for another bloody round.
There is, however, one very happy fellow today. Already having decided that the election is over! Who? This guy is El Presidente Felipe Calderon. He came out with a statement today saying he was very pleased with the outcome of the election. He thinks its all over with, too! He stated, “It seems to me that the most radical and anti-immigrant candidates have been left behind and have been put in their place by their own electorate”. It appears that El Presidente is correct, sadly. Yet there is one candidate left that is yet sticking to his guns on illegal immigration. And claims he’ll deport most illegals within 120 days after being elected. And will also implement the fair tax. Yep: Huckabee
