Further Evidence Barack is the Chosen One

As if it weren't already blatantly evident that Barack Obama is the heir to the throne, the RNC announced some bizarre and certainly non-constructive highlights to the Sept. 1 - 4 convention.

President Bush will speak on the opening night of the convention, and even more ludicrous is the fact that the keynote speech of the entire four days will be given by none other than the abject failure candidate, Rudy Giuliani.

The spinsters say the logic here is to show "diversity" within the party, and to cover a number of different "stronghold" states between the various players. Still, there's no escaping the pure truth; no one likes Bush or Giuliani - regardless of their diverse views or geographic popularity contrasts.

The President's approval rating has been hovering between 25 and 30 percent for eons now. Giuliani was just a year ago the darling prince of the GOP, and the "front runner." However, when the primaries began and it was time to put up or shut up, he fell faster than a lead balloon. He spent eight-figure money on a very abridged campaign that garnered exactly zero delegates.

Additional trouble seems to be looming in that the ultra-right Christian gang detest Rudy, and John McCain's credibility with that clan is already deeply in question. Not sure how Rudy's presence - keynoting no less - is going to help there. Of course Dubbya is not exactly the glue to hold things together. With a (generous) approval rating of 30 percent in a country with so many radical Christian Neo-Cons, he certainly isn't going to solidify much support either.

Obviously the GOP doesn't have a whole lot to work with, and in the end it really makes no difference whether Obama or McCain wins. It just means we'll know up front rather than down the line that the voters have made a grave mistake. But trotting out fake Liberal, "Independent" Joe Lieberman to champion for McCain, and featuring George and Rudy just smacks too much of a complete and total phoning in of the upcoming election.
