From now until next fall, I am guaranteed to find something in the Times that interests me. There was an article today that had a headline about Governor Christie from New Jersey announcing that he will not run for president. Once I got into the article, it turned out to be a what-kind-of-Republican comparison chart. With Christie officially not running, many think Romney is the candidate who holds the most potential to run against Obama. With Palin and Pawlenty out, the rest of the candidates hold a niche of interest from Republicans voters, but Romney seems to be the best collective package, in the eyes of political analysts. I've always thought that in America, we spend too much time campaigning; starting way too early. At this stage in the season, much could change and I'm waiting to see how Cain does in the next few weeks since he has been up in the polls. I'd like to see someone challenge Romney so the candidacy is not set early in any matter.
