So far, I like Daniels the best out of the possible candidates. But it's a weak field. I'm not sure if my second choice would be Huckabee or Romney. So if Daniels doesn't pan out, I'll be in the same situation I was in in 2008. In that scenario, if it comes down to Romney or Obama, well, I'll pick Romney.
Weak by who's standard? The medias? They are the ones who tell us who is and isn't qualified for the office of President. Hey, they gave us the most inept, unqualified, and inexperienced doofas this country has ever known. Strike One.
There are three things a candidate must confront in 2012: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. Everything else is window dressing. Obama is anti-life, will regulate our liberties out of existence, and your pursuit of happiness will be a function of gas prices and then some. Strike Two.
Much as I share the quince in many of Sarah's responses to questions by the likes of Bill O'Reilly, I understand she is trying to make a point, sans brevity, in her own way which could lead some 'true' conservatives astray.(hello, telepromter) She goes to great lengths to say something that could be said in much fewer words. Given. However, she has never, and I mean never, given a response that didn't have at it's heart the true conservative message, ie. freedom of the individual from the state and how that benefits us all.
Until some conservative who may or may not be put-off by her style can point to her violating these basic tenets of conservatism, she's my choice to lead America. And, she comes without the baggage the Left can hang around the necks of her contenders: MassCare, PardonMe, SignHere, etc.
Sarah's been vetted. And they still can't stop her. She's hated by the Left, to the point of psychosis. That may be the greatest reason I support her: I hate the Left in ways I can't express here.
This time, I'm voting for someone I can vote FOR. If you can't, I'll understand.
