Republicans face their arch-enemies, the Republicans

Ah politics is in the air, the scent of which is reminiscent of a hot summer day in the goat enclosure. This time up, the Republicans, who haven't seemed to learn the important lesson that it's you against the other party, not against your own party.

Case and point, Mitt Romney launching ads against Mike Huckabee (what a name... can this guy even be President with that name? President Huckabee? There should be a law...). It's like, as soon as someones in the lead, or even looks like they could be in the lead eventually, the others jump on him like a pack of wolves on a lame caribou. Then, eventually, one of these poor bastards comes out on top, and then has to enter the actual Presidential race. You know, against the opponents.

I swear, one political party could win by a landslide if they simply chose, behind closed doors, who would have their party's nomination, and then sat back and watched the other side rip each other to shreds, while taking copious notes. The other poor bastard would be so beat up, and have had so much of his/her dirty laundry aired, it would be child's play to pick them apart in the actual election. I don't know why someone hasn't thought of this.

I love, too, how they can be practically knife-fighting during debates one month, and then, when the actual election is on, how they're all one big happy family again. It's like "Don't praise him! Last month you said you had pictures of him blowing goats!!"

And to think, people say we have the best political system in the world...
