The Party of Ryan or The Party of Trump?

American Spectator:

With every passing day, President Obama displays a temperament incompatible with the office bestowed upon him nearly two and a half years ago. Whether it's berating a reporter for having the temerity to correct him, complaining about the quality of the White House phones, or gracelessly telling House Republicans to their face they intend to take away health insurance from 50 million Americans, Obama is demonstrating he is not up to the task assigned to him by the American electorate.

Yet those of us who desire that Chief Justice John Roberts administer the oath of office to someone other than Barack Obama on January 20, 2013 should temper this great wish with the realization that his successor could be even less suited to be Commander-in-Chief. I realize that for many such a notion is inconceivable. But it is all the more reason for Republicans to choose wisely about who will face off against Obama next year.

I don't want to leave the impression that I am an admirer of President Obama. In fact, if you were to ask me how to describe President Obama I would call him a petulant, preening, thin-skinned dilettante who thinks he is beyond criticism. But if you were to ask me how to describe Donald Trump, well, I would call him a petulant, preening, thin-skinned dilettante who thinks he is beyond criticism. The only appreciable difference between the two is that Trump would probably equip the White House with "really cool phones."

Of course, one could make the case that entering 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue would probably be a step down for Trump. Let's face it. Anyone who owns half of New York is used to getting his way and anyone who is used to getting his way doesn't think he can be unreasonable much less subject to constraints. If Trump gets to exchange his view of Central Park from Trump Tower for a view of the Rose Garden from the Oval Office, then we can expect him to give the Constitution, Congress, and the Courts the same regard he's given his ex-wives. Do we really want to go from Barack to buffoon?snip

There is always a third opportunity to be The Party of Chumps.

 

Whatever I mean.

 

Regardless I like Ryan but he is needed where he is and doing what he can do best. He is The One.

 

(Several months ago he was on Beck's radio show and he was most impressive.)
