The only hope is for a brokered convention. The leading candidates Newt and Romney are simply unacceptable, the other candidates have no chance of getting the nomination. I am hoping Rush starts Operation Republican Chaos and can get his listeners to vote for Bachmann, Santorum, etc. We need to get to the convention witn nobody having more than 40% support.
If we can get to the convention, someone like Paul Ryan may very well emerge as a person acceptable to both the TeaParty and the Republican establishment.
Paul Ryan. Yet another legislator.
I continue to be astonished that so many people throw common sense and established practices out the window when it comes to nominating someone for the most powerful chief executive position on the planet.
In the real world, one becomes CEO by demonstrating competence in management over many, many years. Just having the the right mindset, toeing the company line, and being a well-liked board member doesn't qualify. You have to have shown that you have the capability to actually run the organization.
Grrrr.....
