When he and his rusted advisors debated six months ago whether a fall or spring election was best he should have said, “Let’s go right now. Tough times are ahead and we don’t want to get caught.”
The Harpie-ites went with fall, the leaves turned, so did the economic weather and there might be nothing to show for our $300,000,000 investment but hip waders all ‘round and empty pockets.

My faith in the Captain has always been between nil and non-existent.
Bean-counters and believers in Market First capitalism make poor politicians because they know more about Dow Jones than long term problems related to an unsustainable economic model.
Productivity, profits and progress cannot solely or chiefly be measured in dollars and cents.
But that’s what bean-counters do.
I wonder if Captain Harpie is any better at forming an apology (“Geez, I spent a pile of your money... and for what?”) than he is at steering a ship?
What are your impressions of the captain?
