Republican presidential candidates out of touch

No wonder the majority of republicans are supporting “none of the above” hoping a better candidate will jump in the race. The Republican presidential candidates are far outside the mainstream, making remarks that are dangerous and alarming. At the first debate most of the Republican candidates stood up in front of First Lady Nancy Reagan last week and told her in no uncertain terms they would not support federally-funded stem cell research. Mitt Romney said he thinks that it’s entirely possible that Iraq hid weapons of mass destruction in Syria (sound familiar, the politics of FEAR). On illegal immigration you have, Tom Tancredo stating that immigration is an “issue of our culture itself, and whether we will survive.” I think he foregot the “illegal” part. All they have left are old tired statements that no longer rally anyone. I think they are out of ideas as well as being out of touch with American mainstream.
