Storm Clouds Up Ahead

++You notice I haven't written anything about Mariano Rivera and his horrible career ending injury or that my Lakers got wiped out. Likewise, I don't want to even consider the impending Supreme Court decision on Affordable Care. A reverse would hurt millions of Americans instantly and bring eternal disgrace on the Roberts Court who brought us Citizens United. Nor do I want to contemplate a new meltdown of the European economies. Nor a bad jobs report.


++But we are going into Obama's funky season where strange things happen like the BP oil spill, the cancellation of his trip to Indonesia because of the debt ceiling showdown, the first in my lifetime.


++Now the crisis in Syria is almost past the point of no return and we are still in the midst of talks with Iran over their nuclear program.


++So all weekend long I received endless e-mails about how Mitt Romney is a leader. Really? And that why veterans back Romney by large margins--not because they traditionally are Republicans but they sense real leadership--like, say George W. Bush.


++I would like a period of calm. Every day is on the knife's edge--something is supposed to happen horribly. Luckily for the past few years, these horrible things haven't happened.


++So I leave you with the latest poll from Colorado, a must state for Romney, President Obama leads 48 to 44 but his lead is 57 to 30 among the unaffiliated. The Los Angeles Times has President Obama leading 56 to 37 in California. In California, Obama has 6 out of ten women and moderates and 75% of Hispanics.


++The Obama campaign has expressed concern about the spending of the SuperPacs. Just think of it this way--all the old white male billionaires will be dead very soon and their children will hate them and became something different.
