This is getting beyond ridiculous and is frankly becoming saddening and maddening. Sen. and Sec. Of State Hillary Rodham Clinton should have been given the coronation she deserves, which I hope is still probable given the recent Quinnipiac poll indicating Mrs. Clinton leading all possible Republican Presidential contenders. Here is the big problem: not only are the Republican and Independent candidates piling up, so are the Democrats.
Earlier today, Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley threw his hat into the ring as another candidate running to the left of Sen. Clinton. A proposition which is impossible given Sec. Of State Clinton is the most liberal candidate running in decades. None the less, the clown car seems to be adding Democrats to the field when there should not be any other Democrats. This includes President Barack Obama whom we know plans on running for a third term. And to add another person, Sen. Lincoln Chafee who was initially a Republican that lost his senate seat to a Democrat (Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse) and two years ago became himself a registered Democrat; Sen. Chafee is also running for President.
Holy shit. Why cannot the political world and much of the real world accept the fact that for the last 23 years, we needed the Clinton family running us all? When is it ever going to get to these opponents' head that nobody in any political and social ideal can ever return to a 1992 or earlier world mindset? The 1980s era has ended. The era where anyone that was not a conservative would be fucked over is never coming back. What Ron Silver said during President Bill Clinton's inauguration ceremonies is true then as it true now. The White House now belongs to us, the oppressed. Look; people my age were never supposed to live this long. If President Ronald Reagan and his people had their way; the world would have ended by 1983 or 1984 due to nuclear war. Those that survived would be living in a Mad Max society, where people would ask "Who Killed The World?"
President Clinton was able to end this madness if only a short while. Sad to say, these last 15 years have been bad for the world and for us all. We need Sen. Clinton to reclaim the throne and become the President she needs to be. And yet, there is this sinking feeling that we will not be getting a Clinton return. For anyone that relishes in the idea of sabotaging the much needed coronation; you should be shutting up before your problems get revealed. I know I have mentioned Michael Rivero recently; the person who just will not get over his life being "ruined" in the aftermath of Vincent Foster's death. To this I say to him: the check did not clear 22 years ago. What makes you think you will get it now?
For those not aware, when someone doth protest much, there is usually a hidden reason why. If I am complaining about something that I might be doing in private; do not be surprised if when my secrets are revealed, I am looked down upon regarding my hypocrisy. I may have more to say on this; though I do not think it is necessary.
In any event, having too many candidates running for one office will negate the relevancy of being a President. This may not end well.
And just like the era of 80s excess has ended, the era of sitcom paint-by-numbers has ended.
Talk to you soon,
Robert
PS. As I was finishing this essay, word came that Beau Biden, Delaware Attorney General and a potential Gubernatorial nominee, has died of brain cancer. This is a very shocking event that I did not see coming. My condolences to the Biden family and his loved ones.
