Archive for the ‘Robert Taft’ tag
Quick note
I’m writing this quick post while trying to finish as many things at work before taking off to New Hampshire.
Yesterday’s results, which were somewhat disappointing, making the need for strong performance in New Hampshire much more vital. I didn’t think before, and I’m surely don’t think now, that Ron Paul had a real chance to win the nomination. However it is important to stay in the race, to be on the debates and influence the agenda. These primaries aren’t about who will be the next President, in 2008 the voter are not going to vote for a republican President - and rightfully so. It is about the future of the GOP, is it going to become the party of the evangelical movement, or those who prefer Robert Taft or Barry Goldwater’s heritage. From what I’m reading, at least in NH we have some reasons for optimism.
And one last thing. Yesterday when I was watching the news, disappointed from not getting in third place, a friend sent me this to cheer me up.
I’ll try to write, and post some pictures, from the primaries in the Granite state. It is going to be very interesting to watch the “Live Free or Die” state celebration of democracy.
