Maybe. If this election is the huge, historical deal it’s said to be, with either the ratification of the terminally debt-addicted redistributive, regulatory Leviathan or the last, best hope to reform it, it’s curious that the GOP, as home of “conservatism” (for lack of a better name for the anti-statist, Constitutionalist faction), hasn’t been able to produce a particularly consequential program or nominee. Your Volgi’s read:

Willard Mittens Romney—Brittle weasel.

Newton Weltgeist Gingrich—Grandiose flake.

Rico Suave Perry—Inarticulate and parochial.

Michelle Crazy Eyes Bachmann—Periodically comes off insane.

Dr. Strangeron Paul—Periodically comes off sane.

Rickroll Santorum—Bitter whiner.

Here’s the big problem: the good communicators here, Romney and Gingrich, aren’t particularly conservative, and the good conservatives (Perry, Bachmann, Santorum) show no ability to be able to persuade the public at large of the need for the large changes their base believes necessary.

So, even if we win, we lose? Despair? Doom?
