What's in a name?

Although this post (and blog) is not endorsing any candidate or political party, I would like to simply take a moment to reflect on the collection of names that have happened upon our screens during the debates.

First, there is Newt. I'm sorry, but what kind of name is that? And can anyone really imagine themselves saying, "Oh yeah, the president of our country... yeah, his name is Newt." Hmm.

Then there is Mitt. Mitt as in a baseball mitt or mittens? Newt and Mitt.

Then there is Ron and Jon. Their names look alike and they rhyme. 

That brings us to Newt and Mitt, Ron and Jon.

How to bring this all together? Two candidates with the very same name, of course. (Duh).

Finally, we have: Newt and Mitt, Ron and Jon, Rick and Rick.

Or Barack.

Happy campaigning.
