One thing that team would do....it would END RINO’s.

Crazy like a fox, I am!

Couldn't you just imagine these two campaigning thru Harlem, the lower east side, "boy's town" in Chicago, East LA?? What a hoot!

Many will stay home

With the team I proposed, I'm pretty sure that would be the case....at least for the presidential ticket.

However, I proposed the team in jest.

Me thinks many on FR need to see some humor in things...or go stark raving mad and begin to emulate the union thugs and college student in Madison, WI

The good news is that with a little work republicans can still show they are a better alternative than Obama and the democrats going into the 2012 election.

The bad news is that they will expend most of their time and energy trying to weasle out of their 2010 promises and once again do their best to snatch defeat from the jaws of success.

What is so hard about beating Obama ?

"It's the economy, stupid!"

They created 244,00 jobs last month, 64,000 at McDonald's. That is 25% of the jobs created. Oh, yeah ... a Million people applied for those jobs. I have talked to a lot of people who voted for him last time that won't this time. What are the Republican's afraid of. Tell them to put me up. The ONLY problem with the Republican Party is that they are afraid of losing the "Game of Rhetoric". Just make sure you run a real republican.

Obama will refuse to even debate Newt unless questions are submitted beforehand.

Newt/Palin [won't happen] would destroy Obama, Newt/Kasich would destroy Obama. Palin/Kasich would kill.

I know people are not big on Palin. The one advantage she has is that she has already done, what other have promised

I’m not sure that economy is everything it used to be. Oh, sure ... not saying it’s unimportant. Surely it is. But people are seriously looking deeper. I don’t think even the economy is the silver bullet that can be used to avoid the corruption problem. It’s that easy on the Democrat side ... Bammers simply promises to hire a few million more public employees at 2-3 times or more what they’re worth - buying the votes again with public money. On the other side - where people are more intelligent and enlightened, the hopes, aspirations, dreams .... kind of life, the universe, and everything die in the process. You know that things have gone well into the extreme zone with in politics, money isn’t everything.

She seems to be staying quiet...much like any hunter....you quietly approach your target and when the time is right...you act. Most of her movement right now is at grassroots level...and it is growing by the day. If you watch her early interviews when she was with McCain and her more current ones, you will notice the change in her presentation. She is coming along...and coming along very well.

Heh heh heh ... Yeah, you and the FEC would like to know, but that ain’t gonna happen till she’s ready. Meanwhile, preparation for full engagement is underway, everything that can be done that falls below the legal threshold of “testing the waters,” etc. I know, because I’m part of it. To be clear, no official campaign for Palin exists, because it is not wise that it should exist at this time. Patience, FRiend. There’s a deep rumble coming from within the hangar, and when the time is right, the doors will open. You can take it to the bank. BTW, Peter Schweizer of the Hoover Institute is doing just that ... Just sayin ...

Nobody ever taught me a nice way to say phuck you ...

McCain? He is the reason we lost last time. For all his military experience the guy has virtually NO ATTACK! He would be the 2012 version of Bob Dole. McCain and Romney are both DOA. You need people who, when they speak, they INSPIRE people. Without Palin in 2008 McCain would have been trounced. Palin was ALL the inspiration that year. Both candidates will have to speak with passion. That takes McCain and Romney out.

Cain/West or Cain/Bolton. Cain’s powerful personality at the top, and rounding out his relative lack of foreign policy knowledge with a West, Bolton, etc as VP.

Bolton/Bachman . . . I would love to see two adults kick some ass in these so-called slanted debates . . .

And I would love to see the Republicans tell the League of Woman Ogres to go to hell with any debate sponsored by them.

If I'm not mistaken, the last time the League of Women Ogres sponsored the POTUS debate, they had some minority as the moderator who had a Messiah worship book waiting to be published about Obambi.

Actually, I think the debates are a total waste of time. All the media does is wait for the slightest mistake that they can capture and throttle the Republicans with for the next months. I really can't imagine that Hitlery would have any her 1000 stolen FBI files on either of them.

I love my chances with Palin and John Kasich.
If that were the ticket we would have only one chance of losing. I trully feel that if they won, we as Americans would win in a BIG way!

IMHO I’d like to see Kasich fix Ohio first. Same for Chris Christie.

If only they had a full term under their belts, I think a team of Christie/Kasich could do a lot of good, however.
