NEVADA, S. CAROLINA & REVISIONS

With Mitt Romney and John McCain picking up expected wins in Nevada and South Carolina, we now have our first six Republican Presidential candidate selection processes in the record books. Unfortunately, in many instances, those other than Republicans were engaged in the process.

As voters become more aware that we live in a very dangerous world, that the situation in Pakistan, possessor of nuclear capabilities, is very worrysome, as it is in much of the rest of the world, couple these situations with the position of all the democrat Presidential candidates (and at least one of the Republicans) in regard to keeping America safe, is how to word our surrender document, perhaps more thought will be given to candidate selection.

With this concern in mind, Linden will now post his current preference listing: The rating of December 1 is bracketed.

1. Fred Thompson (4) With one second place finish and a couple of thirds, he can still catch fire.
2. Mitt Romney (4) Has very impressive credentials.
3. Rudy Giuliani (3) He and Romney were essentially tied in December.
4. John McCain (6) Would also promote a strong America but has proven to be less desirable in other areas.
5. Ron Paul (8) Makes Linden very nervous.
6. Mike Huckabee (7) Makes Linden even more nervous.
Duncan Hunter (2) and Tom Tancredo (5) have discontinued their efforts.

The upcoming contests, particularly in Florida, will be very important. It is still likely that the top four will fight it out in the convention.

In recent ratings, the Council for Citizens Against Government Waste Considered 32 of the present officeholders (democrats) to be hostile, 6 unfriendly, and 1 lukewarm to taxpayers. The National Taxpayers Union granted a grade of “F” to 36 of this group while 3 of them rose to a “D”.

WHAT IF?

Surely you believe that the liberal dominated news media is very, very selective in what “news” they will print or report. Have you noticed the absence of reporting about the improved situation in Iraq? There are, of course, other examples but Linden will assume that you can think. WHAT IF, you complained to the lackluster “news” provider and, if satisfaction is not obtained you then call those who advertise in that medium? Your message could be something like: “ I am disappointed that you choose to advertise in or on …. Who will not report…. Perhaps this approach would pay dividends in the form of less biased news coverage.
