Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum

I don't think my individual opinions are very important, and I have no way of knowing what persons read my blog. Despite this, I will express my hopes and fears about the coming elections of 2008. The idiotic Richard Durbin will win reelection. Why do I know this? I know that Illinois Republicans are suffering a crisis of self-definintion. Illinois Republicans are unwilling to define themselves in a meaningful way. They aren't pro-life, but they aren't as committed to abortion as the Democrats. They don't want huge spending increases, but show little interest in means testing Governor Blagojevich's disasterous All Kids program.
Illinois Republicans show little interest in poking fun at the senior senator's lack of mental gifts. If the shoe was on the other foot, Democrats would make jokes about the idiocy of Senator Durbin. (If you don't believe me, look at leftist blogs and count the number of retard jokes made about President Bush.)

The Republican National Commitee is having less trouble, but still seems unable to come up with a candidate strong enough to make for a real fight with Hillary Clinton. Romney and Guliani are too similar to Hillary for their candidacies to win. A pro abortion Democrat versus a pro abortion Republican is nothing but a waste of time.
