This election is shaping up like a re-imagining of 2004. Ron Paul is the Howard Dean with very slick ideas about organizing, really exemplifies the ethos of Libertarians as Dean did Progressives, but for some reason won't be able to gain the mainstream traction in the primary. Mitt Romney is the John Kerry, tall strong-jawed white man from Massachussetts, well spoken but boring, will largely govern toward the middle, is going to win the Primary but get shredded in the general.
The canary didn't die because this mine is dangerous, it died because it's lazy and wasn't raised with a proper work ethic.
