Thank goodness he's gone!

Bonus points to Mitt Romney for proving he isn't ready to be president. In his speech announcing he was withdrawing from the race, he said:

I am convinced that unless America changes course, we will become the France of the 21st century - still a great nation, but no longer the leader of the world, no longer the superpower. And to me, that is unthinkable.

Well done. Way to impress our allies with your diplomacy. That's the legacy of George Bush we all know and love right there. And just to affirm it, he equates the democrats with terrorists:

If I fight on in my campaign, all the way to the convention, I would forestall the launch of a national campaign and make it more likely that Senator Clinton or Obama would win.

And in this time of war, I simply cannot let my campaign be a part of aiding a surrender to terror.

Because, you know, if you're not with us, you're against us.

Instead he's aiding a surrender to a man who fried a squirrel in a popcorn popper, ate it, and bragged about it in his presidential campaign. Of course, being an Albion grad I must admit I feel a particular fondness toward squirrels, so I'm hardly impartial.
