Today, after losing tremendously after spending the most in Florida, Rudy Giuliani has resigned himself from the presidential race. This really doesn’t come as a surprise considering he was finishing behind (already) presidential dropout Fred Thompson. What is more shocking (not really) is that Democratic Bronze Medalist in most of the primaries, John Edwards is also expected to announce that he will drop his bid for the nomination later today. The difference between these two, disregarding both their audacity in maintaining their bid for presidency this far, is that Giuliani has endorsed McCain for president, whereas Edwards has not endorsed anyone, and probably won’t until Obama makes him his Vice-Presidential candidate. So, to all of those waiting for the remaining nominations, the choices are down to President McCain, President Obama, President Clinton, President Romney, President Paul (o0o0o alliterative!) or President Huckabee in no particular order (yeah, right Huckabee and Paul don't have a chance). But basically what this means now, is that the presidential race just got a bit more convoluted, and I just became that much less likely to vote. That and (and I don’t want to paraphrase South Park here but have to) the race has just narrowed itself down to either the choice of A) a giant douche, or B) a Turd Sandwich (yet again). I don’t want to predict bad things, now, but I feel like whomever the next president is, their legacy will be similar to Ike Eisenhower / Jimmy Carter, and the next president will be scapegoated until the next JFK / Reagan. So at least that’s something to look forward to, no?
