RINO Ridge has as much chance to be the next POTUS as my grandma. And she passed away 25 years ago.

Screw Tom Ridge. He’s a RINO. He’s a Vichy Republican.

No way I will vote for him.

McCain is the last time I vote for the lesser of two evils. Next election if the RNC puts up a RINO, they can roll around in their own self-made crapyard. I will not have anything to do with them on the national level if they will not listen to the majority of us and get their act together.

Something tells me he’s taken campaigning lessons from Fred Thompson. Note to Tom: No one is going to hand you the nomination on a silver platter.

Ridge is a dedicated member of the McCain-Graham-Powell wing of the Republican Party. In other words he doesn’t have a chance in hell of becoming the next Republican nominee for President.

I wouldn't vote for him no matter who his opponent was.

Moths drawn to the light.... RINOS seeking higher office.

Not to mention a juicy contract for their brother-in-law. /sarc

These “wanna-be’s” like Ridge must make a pile of free cash from the money left over from their 1/2assed runs. Why the heck else joust at such a windmill?

Just like McCain didn't?

He's right about one thing - the Republicans DO need to make a change in their approach. They need to go back to the ideas and ideals of Ronald Reagan, which, as Rush is fond of saying, won two landslide electoral victories. Running as “Democrat-lite” has never been, and will never be, a recipe for success.

We're all forgetting how these primaries work.

Independents and same day registrations in New Hampshire pick our front runner...
Democrats in South Carolina's open primary pick our favorite...
Florida, home of Broward and Palm Beach counties comes next...
California, New York, New Jersey and Connecticut overwhelm a bunch of small red states on Super Tuesday.

The primary schedule and rules are custom built for RINO ascendancy. If that doesn't get fixed, Tom Ridge is just the kind of disaster we could end up with.

“I guess he’ll have Colin powell’s support.”

No doubt McCain expected the same support.

No, Powell will find something wrong with Ridge, maybe an eyebrow trimmed improperly, and then back Obama.

It should be obvious by now who’s team Powell is on.

The liberal media is busy out shopping for our next RINO nominee. Ho hum.

This will go over as well as Arlen Specter and Pete Wilson’s WH runs.

Yep!
