They aren't even bothering to show up and decide who will lose to Obama

CNN posted:
Here's the tale of the tape, state by state, beginning with Tuesday night: Minnesota had just more than 47,000 people turn out for its caucuses this year -- four years ago it was nearly 63,000 -- and Romney came in first, not a distant third as he did Tuesday night. In Colorado, more than 70,000 people turned out for its caucus in 2008 -- but in 2012 it was 65,000. And Missouri -- even making a generous discount for the fact that this was an entirely symbolic contest -- had 232,000 people turn out, less than half the number who did four years ago.
Even with months of pre-primary hype and attention solely devoted to the Republican field, turnout in this election cycle essentially flat-lined. In Iowa, a little more than 121,000 people voted, compared with nearly 119,000 four years before, when action in the Democratic caucuses absorbed most of the attention.

None of yesterday's primaries bound any delegates. They didn't matter so it's no wonder there was low turnout.

You know whoever is going up against Big O is going to lose, though. None of the GOP candidates have any 'star power'.
Ugh it seems like the older I get the more retarded every politician on both sides gets. Why is that?

Barring sh*t hitting the fan in the middle east and another economic meltdown, Obama is gonna crush whoever he faces, the Republicans are that retarded.
I hope he spanks them so they wisen up and change their ways.
