Teddy Kennedy and John McCain musings

I see John McCain won Florida. Finally a win for John McCain. His many media friends are making this a national holiday. I wonder if Mike Huckabee's friend Texas Walker, Chuck Norris didn't accidentally help McCain. How so? By saying to the aging snowbirds of FL that John McCain was too old to be President. LOL. Now that would do it! Chaos in the high rises.

And Ted Kennedy was insensitively asked whether or not he thought that similar to his family experiences, that Barack Hussein Obama might be in danger opposing Hillary. I do not remember the name of the media guy that asked Teddy the question but clearly Teddy is endorsing Barack H. Obama. A relatively unknown radio guy on WLS Chicago this morning thought it was a bad question to ask.

The WLS personality (Don W.?) said he was certain that if anything happened bad to BHO that it would be blamed on the vast right wing conspiracy and Bush. LOL. I suspect on the Muuve ahn dot o.r.g. crowd this would indeed be the case. No mention was made of the long list of Clinton cronies and associates who died odd deaths by the time I reached my destination in the car. And no mention of Hillary's friend Vince Foster. But the innuendo was all over the 'other' reporter for asking the question of Teddy, and all over Don W of WLS for mentioning a prior strategy to blame the vast conspiracies Hillary believes in.

OK these are merely musing but they are musings on items in our media these days and they do point to loopy times indeed. I'm not fond of the Hillary/Bill campaign or of Barack's rhetorical schmoozing of his disgustingly pro-abortion positions (opposing parental notification, supporting taking minors out of State for abortions against parental wishes in States with parental notification) and even being FOR partial birth abortion.

I waffle on which of the pro-life candidates I dislike the most, Mitt or John. I prefer Mike Huckabee but pragmatic evangelicals who only listen to the MSM tell me he CANNOT win though they didn't think he could or would win Iowa either, or still be in the race. I see the NRTL says Huckabee has the strongest pro-life record but even they won't endorse him after their shell shock endorsing Fred the fizzle Thompson. Crazy days. Crazy questions. Crazy positions. Personally, I'd prefer a Mike Huckabee candidacy with a McCain or Romney veep to the other way around.

But this is clearly NOT the classical, conventional, MSM peddled 'wisdom'. I don't care. I like Mike.
