Disillusioned with the GOP

View from the Porch says the current crop of candidates are all a bunch of “losers”
This is the eight presidential contest since I’ve been sentient enough to really understand them, and I have to say that it’s official: devolution happens. What else can I call it when I find myself pining for a Dole or a Mondale. Not that I think either of them was such a fantastic candidate, mind you, but I look at the fields both parties are offering this time ’round and I’ve given up on wanting a statesman; now I’ll happily settle for a responsible adult.
On the upside, it looks like Rudy the RINO has taken his ball and gone home. On the downside, the Manchurian Candidate is picking up quite a head of steam. Not only is he an authoritarian jackass with only a passing acquaintance with the Constitution, but he’s almost guaranteed a stomping in any head-to-head debate with either of the Democrat front-runners, who’d leave him looking like a doddering, red-faced, frothing loon.
Not that it matters to me, of course, since the only GOP candidates I could have held my nose and pulled the lever for have either already dropped out or are trailing so far back that they can’t even see the pack from where they’re standing. So it looks like I’ll either be going fishing on election day or making a protest vote of some sort.
