Once again, the Republican establishment (with the Beltway media obediently following behind) seems to be playing Round Robin for the next Presidential race. It's deja vu all over again: Remember 2011-2012, when the GOP was frantically trying to figure out if they could possibly not nominate Willard Romney? We all know how that turned out.
Today, with Chris Christie embroiled in an ever-expanding scandal, Scott Walker, the cross-eyed hater of workers and women from Wisconsin, was deemed to be rising in the 2016 ranks. And now look: E-mailgate!
We cats can't figure out why in the world either man was considered a possibility in the first place. Christie is hatehatehated by the teabag Republican base, and Walker is just — well, to borrow a phrase, dumber than a box of rocks.
But never mind — the important thing is that, with Walker off his very temporary Number-One perch, the GOP will have to endure more rounds in the ever-fun game of Who Will Lose To Hillary '16.
And when will they start returning to former Number Ones? Like Baby Marco Rubio, who is trying so very hard to scramble back? And Ted Cruz, who refuses to go away? And Bobby Jindal, with his recent, repulsive war-on-religion speech? Brace yourselves, folks: Those unlovely faces will soon return to our newspaper front pages and computer screens.
We'll give the hapless Republican Party no help here. But we're just wondering how, and how quickly, whoever they nominate next time will have to embrace Ted Nugent. He's a problem that we Democrats are very proud not to have.
