Why Vote For This Man?

Seriously, unless you put party blinding glasses on, you don't see Teddy Roosevelt anymore, you see obnoxious, self-righteous, drunken sailor tough guy. He has, as George Will says, been running for President for 10 years now. He has said nothing positive about the 8 or 25 years of Republican rule since Minnesota. He has been running against Barack Obama so ineffectively that Obama is about to absolutely clean his clock on election day. He does not defend capitalism at all, merely defending his own bizarre tax and health insurance schemes. He has somehow managed not to talk about foreign policy for 6 months now. I think the polls which presume a 2 way race will be surprised to see 2, 3, maybe 5% of voters on the right go for 3rd party guys like Bob Barr and write ins for Ron Paul.
