CAMPAIGN 2012: The historical expression, “Heavy is the Head of He Who Wears the Crown,” is being rewritten by President Obama as, “Empty is the Head of He Who Flaunts the Crown.” This President has never even led from behind; he has been campaigning for four years. It sounds great for a “community organizer” to talk up solar power and castigate those “who cling to their guns and religion,” and are lazy. But when you give billions to idiots like Solyndra, turn GM over to the unions, close Catholic hospitals over abortion, turn the health care system into a 2,500 page Nancy Pelosi monstrosity that creates hundreds of new bureaucratic agencies, decapitate the military, cancel the space program, sue your own states (Arizona) over immigration, give arms to Mexican drug cartels, stand by as Iran goes nuclear, boost unemployment and put half the country on food stamps, bankrupt the country while demanding that the small percentage that now pay all the taxes pay more – you are so far out in left field that the bleacher bums are booing you and throwing the balls back on the field. With all the pompous dilatants in the media and political world spewing ideological garbage, maybe the time is ready for a steady, methodical businessman to steer the ship of state. In April 1980, President Jimmy Carter was leading Ronald Reagan by 38 points. Bill Clinton trailed George Bush Sr. by 26 in April. New polls this week show Romney leading the incumbent President and the campaign hasn’t even begun – it has all been primaries. The Obama years have been a disaster and whatever you political persuasion, you must admit we need change – and the system says that means President Romney.
