I would replace Rudy Giuliani with Andrew Mccarthy, former Assistant United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York. A Republican, he is most notable for leading the 1995 terrorism prosecution against Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman and eleven others. The defendants were convicted of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and planning a series of attacks against New York City landmarks. He also contributed to the prosecutions of terrorists who bombed US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.
He writes for the National Review.
Definitely Bolton, Sheriff Joe and Guiliani.
Instead of T. Boone Pickens as Energy Secretaty, I would recommend anyone who would recommend DISMANTLING the Energy Department ( Likewise for the Department of Education ).
Speaking of Liz Cheney, she might be a good one to enter the race.
Woman is sharp as a tack.
Once Sarah announces, the big question then remaining is ‘who’ will be her veep pick!
I cannot go with McCain at Defense. He is ga-ga AND unprincipled. There has to be someone better.

My personal choice : SENATOR JIM DeMINT

Either Stanley McChrystal or Lt. Col. Alan West would be a great and better choice.
Secretary of Defense: John McCain

What everyone needs to understand is that the ‘veep’ will only matter for 8 weeks. Then after that, they are no longer relevant for the next 208 weeks, so long as the President is still on duty.

I am proudly a former Fred Head..... Palin / Thompson 2012
Press Secretary Yes Tammy Bruce could hold her own against the MSM
West/Palin
Maybe we could clone Allen West and just make it West/West.
I love Demint, and would vote for him as President in a second. Not a bad choice (assuming he would take it).
My personal choice : SENATOR JIM DeMINT

I would love that.
I’ll take Hunter at Defense or DHS.
The biggest advantage to putting McCain at Defense would be to put him to pasture after a couple of years. Essentially retiring him from public service.
This is the experience that qualifies someone as President of the United States?
“”In the United States Army, a lieutenant colonel typically commands a battalion-sized unit (300 to 1,200 soldiers), with a Major as second-in-command and a Command Sergeant Major as principal NCO adviser. A lieutenant colonel may also serve as a brigade, regiment, or task force Executive Officer, or principal staff officer, S-1 (administration and personnel), S-2 (intelligence), S-3 (operations), S-4 (logistics), S-5 (civil/military affairs), or S-6 (computers and communications). Usage of “The S-n” may refer to either a specific staff section or the staff officer leading a section. Lieutenant colonels may also be junior staff at a variety of higher echelons.
In the United States Air Force, a lieutenant colonel is generally a squadron commander or director of operations in the operations group, a squadron commander in the mission support and maintenance groups, or a squadron commander or division chief in a medical group. Lieutenant colonels may also serve on general staffs and may be the heads of some wing staff departments.[citation needed]
In the 21st century U.S. military, the rank of lieutenant colonel is usually gained after 1622 years of service as an officer.[4] As most officers are eligible to retire after 20 years active service, it is the most common rank at which career officers retire.[5]
Interestingly, that's not a bad two-some, but what would be my best hunch and choice for a winning duo combo is... "Palin/West".
