I agree ALL the blatant threats of harm to the President should be investigated. That's for ANY President, even the MORON Bush.

I think it's MUCH easier to make a case that Bush JR. was the "worst President in History", but that doesn't mean I think Obama was much good.

BOTH of them were NOT prepared to be the Chief Executive of the U.S.

Bush because he was a Moron and Obama because he had No real experience and a Distorted view of the role of government.

I still think Hillary could have been a decent President.

Everybody always thinks it's so great to have "outsiders" become President, but about 40 years ago we entered into this PARTISANSHIP thing where outsiders don't stand a chance unless they are brilliant politicians like Reagan and Clinton.

Which brings me to Romney. Romney's not a "backslapper, backroom guy". When he was governor of Mass. they said he treated all the legislators like employees. Which meant he had to go with the flow if he wanted to do anything. That meant he ended up doing Romneycare.

If he's elected President, which I think he will be, it could set up a situation where he is battling his own Republican House more than any Democrats. That Republican House may be willing to give him tax cuts, but that doesn't mean they will want to give him the continuation of debt ceiling rises that will undoubtedly accrue from them. He may think Ryan will be able to do the heavy lifting for him, but those Tea Party guys may not go for it.

It'll be interesting.......
