Super Tuesday and no heroes in sight.

I think the end is upon us. At least as far as my republican friends are concerned. Today ten states go to the polls trying to determine which republican will go one on one against Obama in the fall for the Presidency and frankly I don’t see how it is going to be anyone other than Mitt Romney.

Today will be the day that, like a train on a down slope, Romney begins picking up his unstoppable momentum hurtling towards the nomination. There may be minor signs of life within the other campaigns, but nothing is going to derail the Mitt. Like it or not the Republicans have stayed true to form and will nominate the next guy in line.

On the plus side for my Republican friends I thin Mitt has the best chance at victory. He’s centrist enough to not scare the moderates and that is where national elections are won and lost. For my Democratic friends the good news is that Romney isn’t a fire breathing social conservative and it a Republican that knows how to compromise.

That doesn’t mean I am predicting a Romney win in the fall, only that he has the best chance. Between Romney and Obama the contest could go either way. Though is Romney loses the chorus from the right will sing that it was because he was a moderate and not a ‘True Conservative’ whatever that may be. If he wins it will be proof that American truly love conservatism.

So from this day forth my Republican friends should practice wearing nose-pins so that, for them, the voting will be easier
