And the Dems Wonder Why They Keep Losing
More playground antics from the Democrats:
THE DRUDGE REPORT has obtained an email sent Monday evening by Democratic National Committee (DNC) research director Devorah Adler that contains ten opposition research packets on potential 2008 GOP presidential contenders.
In one packet titled “Newt Gingrich: 08 Watch February 2006” a picture of the former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich (R-GA) appears with --- him holding two full plates of food!
The quote underneath the Gingrich photo reads “In His Own Words: Gingrich’s Solution To Childhood Obesity: ‘Turn off the TV, cut the fatty diet and get exercise.’ [AP, 2/8/06]”
The ten Republicans picked by the Democrat Party include: Sen. George Allen (R-VA), Sen. Sam Brownback (R-KS), Sen. Bill Frist (R-TN), Gingrich, Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R-NY), Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-NE), Gov. Mike Huckabee (R-AR), Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), Gov. George Pataki (R-NY) and Gov. Mitt Romney (R-MA).
One Republican strategist who had seen the opposition research packets said: 'We should expect nothing less than name-calling and referring to one’s political opponents as ‘fat’ from Howard Dean’s Democrat Party.'
This goes right up there with "Yeeargh!" and "Bush is stupid/Bush is evil."
Real strategies? Real alternatives? Who needs 'em when you can say, "Nah nah nah nah nah!"

If, for any reason, you still didn't believe that the national Democrat Party was clueless, their inclusion of George Pataki in a list of '08 GOP Presidential "contenders" should remove the last shred of doubt.
I have a better chance of being elected President than George Patake, for God's sake.
From that list, there are only three names that I believe have a real shot:
Rudy
McCain
Mitt
Give me Rudy or Mitt, and I'm a happy camper. I'd welcome George Allen, too.
Forced to pick one: my money's on Mitt Romney.
