We finally had some more rain in appropriate amounts – not too much, not too little – for which we (and the lawns, farmers and gardens) are thankful.
We’re at the point where Mr. Romney may enter the race for the Presidency without the modifying titles that have dogged him for so long.
I’m at the point of ripping at what hair I have left because of the magnum long drawn out (one can hardly call it a race unless it would be a herd of turtles) for the GOP nomination.
Mr. Obama’s ‘contest’ will be to see if he or his entourage can survive the next five months or so without a severe case of boredom. I would like to come upon a case of energy that would not be detrimental but keep me awake and active through until the last two weeks of the campaign. I think that would be fully enough to say more than enough about what’s to be decided or what’s to be tried out for campaign slogans etc.
Right now it looks as if we’ve already explored all the nooks and crannies of what is yet to be proposed. Mr. Obama’s speeches hardly keep himself awake – and the news wires are scrounging around for something new to write.
When such conditions prevail it’s rather like a six foot snowfall in winter at a place where only 30 inches or so was expected – you get more tired of it than you ever thought you’d be when looking at a Christmas snow scene on a Christmas card. Even Santa in the dreary days of January has more often than not worn out his welcome.
Well… enjoy the explanation that each candidate will be obligated to spell out for us in great detail. Nemmine that we’ve heard it all before.
I’m wanting to hear how Mr. Obama proposes to dig us out from under the pile of debt for which he must take responsibility. The entertainment I suppose will be hearing the economists stay awake while they rework their proposals for the 21st time before the end of the season.
Have a great mid-week. See you tomorrow (DV) ….
Cordially, IN HIM
