I’m looking forward to next Wednesday. Aren’t you? Sure you are because that is the day when both the Iowa Caucuses (doesn’t the word ‘caucus’ have sort of a hive-ish connotation to it?) and the New Hampshire Primaries will be over and both parties will have a better idea of what will be on the plate in the General. Whoever the two candidates are, however, we seem to have few to no outstanding candidates on either side and, in the cases Senator Hillary Clinton’s (D-NY) and Former Governor Michael Huckabee’s (R-AR), some frightening ones. Between the former’s willful ignorance on the basic facts of the Pakistan situation (among other deficiencies) and the latter’s (ab)use of Christianity as cover for his decidedly non-conservative record, I’d say that these two must be actively opposed.
On the bright side, even if one of these people becomes president/vice president, I’ll still be happy to be American and not Pakistani or Kenyan.
