In short, give me a name.

If I did, then I'd have to kill you. (just kidding! lol)

I have a sneaking suspicion about a potential draft candidate, and I've alluded to it in the past but that person is by no means a sure bet to allow themselves to be drafted for the 'Rat nomination, but I'm willing to bet that if they were, it would pretty much lock up the election for the 'Rats.

But I don't want to sound coy, so you want a name?

Here you go: Colin Powell.

Powell has everything that the 'Rats could want in a candidate, he would very likely obtain near 100 percent levels of black votes, his national security credentials are virtually unassailable, the fact that he has broken with the Bush Administration regarding Iraq might actually play well with the anti-war left (who irrationally hate Bush for any and every reason under the sun), he is just about as socially liberal as Giuliani, but he retains a vast amount of good will from the so-called 'moderate' (read: RINO) Republicans. I think he would be a formidable candidate, damn near unbeatable, but only if he were the 'Rat nominee, there is no way he could ever obtain the GOP nomination.

But I think that rather than worry about who (or what) the 'Rats are going to nominate, we should be focusing on choosing the best GOP candidate, which embodies the values and ideals of Reagan-style Republicanism, and that means NOT going with the cultish instincts of the RudyBots, nor does it mean choosing the over-the-hill antics of the McCainiacs (which are becoming more and more rare here on FR).

Mitt with Colin as VP. Powell would give him international experience, black vote, broad appeal, and Mitt would seal the conservatives.

There you go. Everyone can rest now.

That's not going happen. In this day and age, he would already would have to have his people in place...MONEY, etc.

Unfortunately, there's no one the democratic party that's going to stop Hillary...Obama will fizzle.
