The Republican Race that Wasn't
The Republican primary fight that didn't happen in the first months of 2008, may be unfolding now. As they begin to regroup, the GOP finds itself lacking leadership, vision or new constituencies.

Hardly anyone mentions that the "the Bible Belt" and "the Black Belt" refer to essentially the same part of the country. That easily overlooked fact is of enormous significance.

This is a wholly speculative and totally unsubstantiated theory and, as such, is horrendously irresponsible to float on national television at a time of such serious market fragility. Never mind what Chuck Norris is smoking.

Don't believe me. But don't believe that the Bush era is really over, just because President Bush will be leaving office in January. The politics of Bush are not at an end -- Sarah Palin is proof positive.

Mike Huckabee is Fox News' version of Regis. And, after last night's final audition, he's got his Kathie Lee in Sarah "Winky" Palin. In six weeks, she'll be part of the most conspicuously moral duo on TV.

If we agree, as most of us do outside of the far-right abortion-obsessed axis, that Palin is unfit to serve as president, then McCain, the man solely responsible for giving her that opportunity, is unfit too. It's that simple.

With the GOP's Darth Vader, Karl Rove, as their Shaman and strategic guru, McPalin is trying to convince voters that it is they, not the Democrats, who are the real agents of change.

Obama wasn't the natural choice of some of our Arab-American relatives and friends. I could feel a slight sense of racism whenever his name would come up.

Huckabee, embracing a position that seems designed to rile his fellow social conservatives, has long been a proponent of music and arts education in the public schools.

Mike Huckabee, trying to promote Palin and insult Biden at the RNC, illustrates one thing: he can't do math.

Surely the Republican Spartans are ready for battle after this rousing show, but it's unclear who exactly they're mobilizing.

Palin spoke of "the determination, the resolve, and the sheer guts of Senator John McCain," all the while demonstrating her own, likening herself to a pit bull in lipstick. Game on!

Many women do like Palin -- there will be a lot who will be drawn to her gutsy, take on Washington's vested interests style as well as to her womanhood.

As Biden said in Iowa, "if it's experience we are after, I'm elected." Among the people I spoke to there, many said that the Biden and Hillary platforms were very similar, but that Biden was the less divisive figure.
