Decision 2012

It’s a big election year.  There’s the incumbent, who clearly has strong name recognition, years of experience and some wealthy backers.  And then there’s the up-and-comer.  He doesn’t play by the rules.  An outsider.  The “Maverick” if you will.

Blue versus Red.

Who will be elected President of mess-making?  It’s a tight race.

The candidate who says “No to high-speed rail!” and decimates the project in a pile of wooden rubble?  Or the candidate who pledges to put an end to the passage of spicy foreign imports, sweeping them to the floor with unmatched rage and indignation?  The candidate who vows to end homelessness via couch cushions and afghans, or the green candidate waging war on stray junk mail and product catalogs, ripping them to shreds?

Decision 2012: I think it’s likely to be a hanging chad year.
