Republicans are Losing Their Best and Their Brightest
Republicans are losing their best people in droves as we head toward the 2012 presidential race faster than a Sarah Palin tweet becomes irrelevant. And I am not talking about women, Latinos and Blacks. Those minorities will never be American enough to be true Republicans. And remember I said, “The Best and Brightest.”

No, I am talking about Mike Huckabee and Donald Trump who have decided to put their own financial interest above America. I salute their decisions, but it is a loss to the Republican cause. Who now with step forward with the twin flags of evangelicalism and hypocritical free market, anti-government talking points. Who will stand against the facts about Obama’s birth certificate in a time of crisis in America? Who will fight for the facts of creationism, the facts that make this nation great, over the liberal dogma of science in the classroom?

Donald Trump is a stunning loss. Who thought that The Donald would drop out when he still had work to do fabricating issues from the flotsam of previous failed billionaire bids for the White House? In his concession speech, he said that, “”Business is my greatest passion and I am not ready to leave the private sector.”” He also made the unfalsifiable claim that he could win the Republican primary and the White House, if he wanted to. (link)

Trump could see that all the attention he was getting for making up factoids was damaging his clean cut image as a paragon of virtue, so he had to drop out.
