I will say the candidate for this time around has not emerged

Ditto. Unfortunately they may not by election time either.

In a country of 300 million people, it’s hard to believe these are the choices.

Highly likely. Just other people mentioned in this thread like Santorum, Thompson and Thune I forgot about. Pence, Kasich and DeMint I hadn’t considered. Perry could still change his mind and run despite the denial.

And of course the sheer number of other governors or business/thought leaders who may consider running.

I agree. None of those listed do anything for me.

Coburn of Oklahoma ran the illegals out of the state. They have relocated in Texas. Sen Coburn would make a great candidate. Check out his site
