STAY OUT THE BUSHES!
Better to win with the most conservative of all the Bushes backed by a momma grizley than to win with RINO Romney and stealth liberal Hillbilly Huckabee. Or lose to Zero again.
Buckley’s rule: Support the most ELECTABLE conservative.
The Republican candidate will be from among those with name familiarity: Romney, Huckabee, Palin, Guiliani. I fear, probably Romney/Huckabee. Jindal, Cristie, Sanford, Pawlenty, Demint and others will not be the nominee in 2012, too new, too unfamiliar.
The only person who has the gravitas, name familiarity and also pretty good conservative bona fides is Jeb. He only has to separate himself politically from his brother which I think time and distance have done. Also the current rapid rehabilitation of “W” will help, too. I think that is an easier task than to get the much needed Evangelicals to support Romney, the much need conservatives to support Huckabee, the press to give Sarah a fair shake so as not to drive away the independent vote for her.
I think Jeb/Sarah wins in a landslide.
Any other ticket, If they win, will squeek in.
