Sunday Thoughts January 14, 2023

I must admit that I am torn at the start of the election season. On the one hand, it promises to be an epic circus that will provide hours of cheap thrills. On the other hand, it means I will have to talk and write about it and that will not be much fun. I noticed that whenever I engage with conventional politics, I start to get angry, and my mind is consumed with dark thoughts. Luckily, I have enough projects going that I will struggle to keep up with all of it.

I will go out on a limb and predict that Haley will have a dreadful night on Tuesday. She reminds me of that lunatic Howard Dean a few cycles ago. The media loved him, but his campaign was all paid volunteers from out of state. The locals had no interest, and they do the voting. That and Haley is relying on Democrats to strategically vote for her as a way to harm Trump and the Republicans. That strategy rarely works, so I say she finishes third.

The guy to watch is DeSantis. He has put all his eggs in the Iowa basket, so if he finished third it is over for him, but even a distant second could be enough to end his run. He has no campaign in New Hampshire, so he needs a big night in Iowa. If that does not happen and he drops out, does he endorse Trump or does he endorse Haley? Just for entertainment value, I hope he endorses Haley. Ann Coulter will have a stroke. That would be a good day.
