Melançon Enterprises • a multidivision multinational since 1980

To a friend in Minnesota:

I was most specifically blaming you Minnesotans for nearly allowing the Mass.-enabled power-mad embodiment of pure evil... well, just an anecdote on dear old Mitt: A friend of mine told me that Romney made the Governor's Commission for Gay and Lesbian Youth take Transgender out of their name when they added it -- shutting it down until they did so. That's the way he thinks... divide and rule. [A little research on that]

I do find it amazing that the least hate-based candidates (despite Huckabee's own anti-queer bona fides) are the ones to have dropped out of the Republican nomination race... and of them I'd feel a little less scared having Huckabee in office because I honestly don't think it would occur to him to bomb the entire rest of the world.

Obviously, I'd rather neither, none, and nada made it anywhere near shiny red buttons or the microphone of the media's lockstep megaphone.

And my thoughts on the alleged two remaining chances are here:

I can't help but think about how power is organization, though, and how the rich are way more organized than the rest of us and could legitimately create a third party or "independent" candidate if they suddenly decided Obama looked like he might take all this bottom-up change talk seriously and they couldn't attach a trusted enough handler to Huckabee, whom the establishment never seems to have taken seriously, should he become the nominee.
