NEWS AND COMMENT

Romney Drops Out of Presidential Race

The nation may well be ready for an African-American president, or a female president. It is just not ready to elect an android.




Democratic Chairman Howard Dean said he doesn’t want the Clinton-Obama race continuing into the party’s convention in Denver, saying the candidates should “make some kind of an arrangement” if neither has enough delegates to win the nomination.


So, will he force one to withdraw, or push for a joint ticket.? Because of age, if nothing else, that would be Clinton/Obama. With Obama as Vice President, we might witness some of the most stirring tributes ever at funerals for world leaders and other politicians. The worry is that Mr. Obama may be so inspiring that the politician may rise from the dead.

This good news can be added to the many news reports that the 2nd in command of al qaeda had been killed.
