There is hope for the GOP.

Paul Ryan, a Mirage Candidate, Wages a Parallel Campaign

Even I would vote for Paul Ryan. Not saying I would or will. I just would be very pleased to have the choice.

I hate the idea that Hillary Clinton would be President by default.

Any campaign involving Trump or even Cruz would be an embarrassment at best. Trump because he is a blatant asshole and Cruz because he lacks the time in the saddle to justify his aims.

Ryan, on the other hand, has experience. He knows how to be a professional politician rather than a vanity candidate. He is also a true Middle West Republican. A model for the sub-species.

And I have to say that he looks the part. That chin. He has an abundance of sex appeal which has always lurked as an important quality for a candidate. Yes, even Jimmy Earl Carter had some of it.

I believe in the Two Party System.

It is foundational to our success as a nation.

For one half of the System to break down badly would be bad for the country. It would also be bad for the Democratic Party which needs a loyal opposition.

So.

It is an interesting campaign year.
