It would be just for show. He’ll get his buddies to contribute some money so he can have a national tour vacation. That is the only reason some of these loser candidates even put their hats into the race. It gives them a platform to raise money to indulge themselves without any chance in hell of them gaining traction.

I think it’s a great idea. Jeb Bush, John McCain, and Mitt Romney should run too. Let’s have a gazillion RINOs running for the GOP nomination and one conservative this time.

I find it peculiar that I have never once heard of John McCain’s urging the continued political rising of the one person who almost got him elected President.

For someone this one person persuaded a large postion of this Nation one night to believe John McCain was indeed a war hero, he seems puffed up against her; ungrateful...or something.

If graham “comes out” on the campaign trail he is a shoo in.

Gay men are more special than anyone else.

And Lindsey always backs up McCain when McCain says something stupid. Which totally explains why they’re always inside each others pockets....

Any one in the Phx area, Juan McShamnesty will be signing his NEW BOOK tonight at 7 pm, Changing Hands Tempe.

I’m sure Juan would love to hear from his constituents.

To anyone planning to attend, may I please recommend that, in order to avoide the appearance of hyprocisy, you purchase a copy of his book before you stand in line to speak to him.

You have to do that, but to stand on the sidewalk and watch his car drive in the alley to the back of the store, while holding a sign, priceless.

Yes, Perry. Texas is the model for modern American conservatism IMHO.

The state...

1) Has no state income tax.
2) Is right to work.
3) Has a part time state legislature and limited state government
4) Is pro-life
5) Is pro-Second Amendment
6) Is pro-business
7) Is pro-drill baby drill
8) Has tort reform
9) Is working top secure its border even if the Fed won’t.
10) Actually enforces the death penalty.

What better model could we ask for as an example of common sense conservative governance that works?

I believe Kasich is the man to watch. From a political standpoint, he has the most going for him right now. He recently won re-election in Ohio by 31 points. And Ohio would represent a 36-pt swing in electoral votes for 2016.

In no way am I endorsing his candidacy. I am simply saying that he has an excellent chance of winning the GOP nomination as well as the Presidency, especially if Hillary is the Dem candidate.

Actually, Pansy Graham might be an ideal shill to put up ... he is definitely pro-military, and has legal experience, and has connections in House and Senate. Now, if republicants could just have the shame file the democrips hold on Pansy ...

I’m from OH originally. I am extremely familiar with OH politics.

Kasich’s recent re-election victory was nothing short of astounding. He won 86 of the states 88 counties.

Kasich even carried ALL of the state’s urban counties and big metro areas, urban areas which were considered beyond the reach of Republican candidates.

So yes. My list was simply my personal favorites.

So does McCain want to be the First Lady?

run nancy run!!!!

More RINOs the better. Except one small point...this is an effort to take away conservative votes..running the home town boy. Graham has no chance of winning but could hurt theprimary count..SC might pass him too many votes.
