Republicans sans leader
By Grant Swank
Glenn Beck said it best. He looked straight into the camera and said it's time for the Republicans to find a leader.
Right.
He made that comment after bewailing the lack of luster that John McCain puts out in comparison to the craze that Barack Obama mesmerizes.
Beck went on with a kind of stream of consciousness litany about Obacamania having caught hold with such fervor that it has no end.
One could tell on Beck's face that he was tripping off thought patterns that spelled Quits for the Republicans and Win for the Democrats. Beck looked as if he were startled by his own thoughts and yet not all that pleased with them either.
His warning about the Republicans not having a leader is quite right on, no matter Beck's angst revealed.
The Dems are doing two things: they are providing a candidate that can do what the Republicans cannot do. That is this: the Dems have The Boy who can oust Hillary Clinton. Who would have thought it? The Dems, not the Reps dump Hillary.
Secondly, the Dems have come up with their own rock star in politico cloth. He's spell binding for the non-thinkers. He's alluring to the groupie types. He's the most to those who have no idea what the issues are.
So Obama unseats Hillary and sets the country ablaze for months to come. Politics has turned into a sideshow maximum with the Dems finding a leader who can deliver nothing more than senior class president wannabe speech.
So where is the Republican leader — the real-life real-time gotcha-and-won't-let-you-go LEADER?
It's frightening, isn't it?
