If you're willing to take the Hildebeeste, you can write your own deal.

I'd vote for Sanford in a heartbeat against any NE RINO

[sunshine state]

bump!

According to the Democrats, all that matters is if he served in Vietnam.

I like how groups like the club for growth and the cato institute are backing good guys like this. That is why I donate to these institutes, and to politicians which they recommend.

[RWR8189]

I've been doing the same thing.

I'd rather donate to the Club for Growth or to Progress for America before the NRSC or other spineless Republican organizations.

[SDGOP]

Sigh i wish he'd run for president.

ROFL!

[George W. Bush]

If the Dims end up with a conservative Southern governor as their candidate, it increases the chances that a Sanford could get the GOP nomination.

For conservatives, Hillary is a disaster, both for her intrinsic qualities (if she wins) and, even if she loses, she gives the porkbarreling big-goverment Republicans plenty of opportunity to look conservative even though it's obvious they're pro-government, pro-spending, pro-globalist, etc.

Sanford is like a breath of fresh air. And there are still some Republicans that do well but could use a leader, legislators like Shelby and Paul and Santorum and Hostettler and Musgrave and Tancredo, well, pretty much anyone in Liberty Caucus. On a good day, Tom DeLay.

There's still hope for the GOP as long as we have these folks. But every now and then, we need to put them into top leadership.

[JohnBDay]

In both resume and beliefs, he is the perfect candidate. I hope he runs.
