Both of them.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the act of publishing verbatim a Brownback press release doesn't quite seem impartial.
Of course, NRO may have already declared who they back. In which case, ignore me.
LOL. Sad but probably true.
Not a huge NR fan myself, but I'm guessing there are more than a few Romney fans in that bunch.
LOL
Smart alec...
Serious question - does Brownback really have a snowball's chance - i.e. given the total lack of name ID, inability to raise major funds early on, etc
Is he the true choice for those who want to secure our borders?
And Brownback's got as much chance of winning a primary, ANY PRIMARY, let alone the nomination, as Elmer Fudd has of actually bagging the "wabbit".
I'm getting my head chewed off for asking somewhat similar questions about Duncan Hunter.

If he can get the majority of the pro-life lobby behind him, then he has a chance to be competitive. It's too early to tell, but he's starting from a deep hole.
Hopefully, they will ALL come down on the side of airtight border security. What they do AFTER that is secondary.
The door is wide open for a staunch conservative to do very well in the primary. Whether Brownback has the $$ and ability to be that guy remains to be seen. Of course, the kind of press he just grabbed per the article shows he is already active.
Here's a list of likelies? posted on another thread.

Ok, where's the list?
John McCain (maybe)
Rudy Giuliani (maybe)
Mitt Romney(?)
Tommy Thompson ( wasting time & money)
Chuck Hagel (maybe) bah
Brownback ( no chance of winning IMO)
Duncan Hunter (maybe)
Who else?
Thanks - from what little I know of the guy he sounds pretty good....
....certainly Bill Clinton was a total unknown early on (but he had the support of many in the lame-stream media to make him into an instant "rock-star")
I think Sam's angling for the Veep position. And if he's selected and the GOP wins in 2008 then he will have had a hand in making history. Kansas will have it's first Democrat senator in over 70 years.
I think Newt will run. As will Colin Powell.
He'll need to be very busy getting his name out there if he wants to have any cash to even attempt this.
Great, they've found somebody who will get creamed in the general election.
I thought the reason Powell didn't run in the past (remember when he was all the rage in '96) was because his wife was manic-depressive and he didn't want to put her through the strain of a campaign?
