I agree 100% that Hillary must suffer a smashing devastating defeat in 2008. But I still think that Romney will be the best Republican canidate in the primaries. I like Tancredo but it doesn't look like he would be able to build a national support base large enough to come even close to the likely GOP finalists. I noticed your Barbour and Steele ticket idea. I know very little about Haley Barbour other than he has good conservative and American principles. Living in Maryland, I have had the opportunity to hear Michael Steele speak many times. Although Steele lost to the extremely dull and far lefty Ben Cardin, Steele did manage to win one quarter of the African American vote. That's very impressive for any Republican and Conservative. If Steele does happen to be a running mate for someone in 2008, I can see him winning a lot of African American votes in the South, which could make the difference in a close election.
A little worried how Romney will fair with the large Evangelical base. We shall see...
Barbour is a TRUE Reagan conservative. He was the head of the RNC from 94-97 (The Newt Revolution) and served under Reagan. He has passed 6 Pro-Life laws and has made Miss. the "safest state in the union for an unborn child" says National RTL.
He IS the man!!!!!!!! I think if he was not SO dedicated to rebuilding Miss. he would run! I hope he reconsiders.
Michael Steele should be the VP choice for whoever runs. He is the man too!
