Nobody was excited about any of the GOP candidates. Mitt "finger in the air" Romney, Ron "crazy uncle" Paul, Rudy "my children hate me" Giuliani, John "straight dick" McCain, Mike "my wife is a man" Huckabee.

These are all the same people that made Britney Spears famous. They are consumers of pop culture. Obama is the pop icon of the moment. I am starting to feel optimistic lately that he might get nominated. The more I think about it the more I believe that he can't truly trade punches once the press stops treating him with kid gloves. Hillary, of course, can trade punches with anyone.
