Just what we need

Republicans can't understand it.

Dems just sit back and chuckle.

But voters understand, even if the politicians (a breed apart from voters or people) just don't get it: We don't like you:
Three weeks before the Iowa caucuses, Republican voters across the country appear uninspired by their field of presidential candidates, with a vast majority saying they have not made a final decision about whom to support, according to the latest New York Times/CBS News poll.
Not one of the Republican candidates is viewed favorably by even half the Republican electorate, the poll found.
But then again, what's to like?
You've got Rudy Giulaini, who's sole claim is that he saved New York. Right Rudy. It'd still be in flames with millions still crying in the street if you hadn't made a lot of very meaningful public appearances. Some resume. Which wife - and which mistress - are you up to now?
You've got Mike Huckabee, a far-right evangelical Christian who apparently still believes the world is flat. And all those dinosaurs died in Noah's flood. Anyone buying his pathetic wingnut rhetoric ... deserves him.
You've got Fred "I think I'll run for president, no I think I'll take a nap" Thompson, who seems to believe that playing a judge (or cop or lawyer or something) on TV is enough qualification.

And you've got Mitt Romney, a pretty boy who could give Bill Clinton lessons in flip-flopping. Mitt assures us that the Mormon church won't dictate his administration once he's elected. Right Mitt (what kind of a name is Mitt?) I remember a Mormon governor from Arizona a few years back. Kept a chair in his governor's office no one was allowed to sit on. That, he said, was where God sat when he came to advise the Gov. on how to run the state. He was impeached; thrown out of office. A cult is a cult is a cult. Bring out the Kool-Aid.

You've also got John McCain, the 71-year-old ex-POW who's "for the war no he's against war and is for torture no he's against torture and he'd invade Iran no he wouldn't and he'd talk tough with North Korea no he wouldn't but vote for me anyway."

Just can't understand why Republican voters can't connect. Can you?

And so it goes.
