Republicans have gotten a lot of mileage out of criticizing Democrats as poor leaders, using descriptors like wishy-washy, vacillating, random and flip-flopping.

Now we’re about to have a president who bounces all over the place on issues too complex for his simple mind. Scary, huh?

I’m scared, too, and about this: Our Republican leaders are soon going to have to admit the solutions to issues facing their constituents are not bound by God, but rather by science and economics.

That’s going to be extremely unpleasant for them.
