Do those trump?:<br /><br />1) Government as sole provider (as exemplified by nationalized health care) <br /><br />2) Redistribution of wealth (seizure of industrial bond investment)dcrutchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12856825454020971907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-31726312156742531792011-01-24T05:39:13.766-05:002011-01-24T05:39:13.766-05:00Well, that's great.

But, two things will haunt the Governor's chances.<br /><br />1) His fiasco with the budgetary projection for the war in Iraq.<br /><br />2) His seeming inability to select competent managers, along with his hands-off management style. He won't do it, they all too often can't.varangianguardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12571595354792261993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-11585169375206718722011-01-24T02:00:10.402-05:002011-01-24T02:00:10.402-05:00Painful ironies: Daniels might- might be the bes...Painful ironies: Daniels might- might be the best person for the job among limited realistic possibilities, but won't be a possibility because he won't pursue it at all or until the assembly session is over (despite being well behind Romney, Palin, and Pawlenty). Granted, as a "compromise" candidate, or in a growing adoration led by the press (don't count on it), he might overcome his present position. Who would have predicted a President Obama a few years ago? <br /><br />However, with the dutiful digging of one corrupting situation after another locally, the national press will be only too willing to hang Daniels by any and all unearthed scandals, while just as dutifully not uncovering nary another rock about the enigmatic President Obama. <br /><br />The muckracking our city, state, and country desperately need reinvigorated, will possibly be the downfall of Governor Daniels' rendition of a return to reality: personal responsibility, limited government, and business as an economic engine (versus the fable that government can fix everything- even without tax revenue).<br /><br />I hold investigative reporting in just about the highest of esteem. We also face a breathtakingly chilling prospect of another four years of "the Change".
