Oh jolly days of wishy washy pundits! I know this is all old news for most of you, but this is the first primary I’ve actually followed and had minor salivation over, so pardon my naivety.
A few days ago, all anyone could talk about was Obama’s “momentum”; closing the gaps in recent polls, Hillary being on her last stand, or legs, or something upright.
Now they’ve apparently switched teams (again), joining Hillary and saying voters are “taking a closer look” at Barack. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard the term “free ride” thrown around. We’re all agreeing now that he’s all hat and no cattle.
Okay, saddle up. Let’s go cattle hunting. I’m going to try to spend my (limited) free-time over the next week or so and try to get elbow deep in policy, not only for Barack, but for all three who are still White House hopefuls.
I did a quick search trying to find out about John McCain’s ideas healthcare. The only thing close to actual policy I could find was that he wants to raise cigarette taxes. Hmmm. ‘Kay.
TeemKuntz, are you ready for a roundup? (Should I stop with the cattle analogy now?)
Oh, and can anyone get me a finer point on the origin of said phrase than just “Texas”?
