I don't see that Romney has any core conservcative principles of his own. He's a focus group conservative.

I believe anyone I would really like to see hold that office is unelectable or has no desire to run for said office.
I'm hopin I'm wrong and someone comes outa the woodwork that I could feel good about supporting.
the real trouble as I see it, metaphorically, is the patient has smoked like a chimney, drank way far beyond excess, lived a very sedentary lifestyle, and gorged themselves on junk food.
finding a doctor to save his life may be a challenge in the first place, said doctor if smart enough to save him knowing even if 45% of the patient is grateful for his efforts, the biggest part of the patient will view him as a pariah.
I don't like our odds, but I hold onto a sliver of hope.
I really feel if the patient is to be saved, it will take amputation, say about half.

I'll be shocked if you do not see Scott Brown on the ticket with someone. Maybe McDonnell, Thune, Perry, or Romney. I don't see Newt coming back and just do not feel Palin is what we need right now. Someone very people and business minded needs to right this ship or it's sunk. I do like Sarah Palin, however.
I agree that mid-terms will be the reveal-all.
If Hussein fires Biden and hooks up with Hilary they are going to be tough to beat.
Hell I may run myself. I'll give all of you boolits and bbq.

Ron Paul would be my first choice. As to "why" the thing you posted yesterday (?) on his opposition to amnesty is a good example. Of those who ran last time, Tom Tancredo stands out. Sam Brownback is very conservative.

Some people "in the know" are predicting that Governor Rick Perry, of Texas, will announce for the nomination.
Any thoughts on him?

Palin is the only one that has the same core values as my own so she is still my pick.

Tom Selleck,
Draft him,...he'll go.
He's already played Ike.

As it stands now, the primaries will be the downfall of the GOP.
Republican's will scorch the earth fighting to the fringe of the right wing to win in the primaries, thus scaring off moderates and Reagan Democrats in the General election.
Barring any huge calamity in the economy or defense, the election will be a repeat of 2008.
Bank on it.

I would love to see the Palin/Bachman or Bachman/Palin ticket. They would have to put anti-seizure medication in Evian Bottled water to keep the left functioning.
I don't really know much about either, just love the foaming at the mouth they both cause. Both are mothers of 5 also, IIRC.

Any thoughts on him? I watched some of Perry's speech at the Republican gathering the other day. There is something seriously weird about that man. I admit I haven't seen much of him previously. I won't bring up how well Sarah did as some will get the wrong idea.

Not against this current president. Your prognostication on that, Bob? Your track record is... suspect... to say the least. Bob has nearly a slam dunk this time if an election is held. Obama is just getting started. By the time he introduces more new taxes and social engineering, the country will take most any choice they are offered but him.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

Palin is Ross Perot part II.
She's sucking up all the media attention possible with her looks and popularity, but once she gets out there and actually TALKS, people can't run away fast enough.
