Prosecutor with a pen, Paul Nitze, smacks the first volley of local 'Prez Race 2012' rhetoric over the net.
Thank you (sincerely), for relieving us of holding our breath until 2012 to see who one of our favorite local talking heads is voting for.
It's just so much more fun to extend the politics-chasing season than to scurry round and round the mulberry bush:
"...Don't hold your breath or sell your house — I'm still planning to vote for the president in 2012...."
(Paul Nitze)
Let's see if Nanny can spread Nitze's ink around to the conservative Twitter followers she has. Help him out a bit. Let him rack up some RT's:
"...If you're a Dem who recoils at Romney's slick-topped, pearly white, masterfully cynical brand of politics, you might just read it and think he'd do OK in the White House...."
(Paul Nitze)
"...By next fall, a date that fortuitously lines up with the general election calendar, hospitals will receive Medicare payments that are tied to the total Medicare spending on that patient from three days before the patient entered the hospital to 90 days after the patient leaves...."
(Paul Nitze)
"....Instead of running on his very real achievements in Massachusetts, and in rescuing the Salt Lake Olympics from disaster, Romney is forced to trot out lame “federalist” excuses for why he did what he did as governor. A hard-core pragmatist is trying to reinvent himself as a sword-bearer, with poor results.
You may blanch at Romney's shamelessness, but shamelessness does not necessarily make for bad presidents. Romney is a brilliant, wildly ambitious, and fundamentally pragmatic politician. We could do a lot worse. But that's not the version of Mitt Romney we're going to see next year....."
