Pas si facile de dénicher celui ou celle qui vaincra Obama malgré un contexte difficile pour le Président sortant...
"Let’s get this out of the way: The presidential election is more than a year away, and things can and will change between now and then. Caveat: check!
BUT, and that’s a big but, the way the Republican field is shaping up, it may be poised to squander an electoral opportunity of a historic scale.
Republicans simply can’t find a competent, consistent candidate with whom they can fall in love and with which President Obama won’t mop the floor.
Their last glimmers of hope disappeared this week when both the Mama Grizzly from Alaska and the Papa Bear from New Jersey announced that they would not run.
That means this is it. Republicans are stuck with the group they have: The Imperfect 10. They are so lackluster that most people can’t even name the front-runners. According to a poll released this week by the Pew Research Center, unlike in 2007, 1999 and 1995 when about half of Americans could name a Republican front-runner at this point in the campaign, this year little more than a quarter can.
This was supposed to be a cakewalk for Republican voters. Instead, they find themselves poring over a platter of options as dense as dough, as hollow as choux and as thin as phyllo.
This has to be incredibly frustrating. All the other conditions are ripe."
