Mediocre compared to who? McCain? The crazed anti-conservative "Gang of Twelve" backstabbing "maverick"? Tim Pawlenty? The McCain acolyte? Let me tell you, as a Minnesotan...his brown-nosing to try and get that selection for himself is dis-respected by ALL real conservatives in this state. ALL.
He has NO shot at the Big Ticket. He is done.
As for Romney, it appears that he is also fried. His Bain Financial company's treasonous moving of 3Com into China's clutches...finishes him once and for all.
And obviously Newt is toast. His blatant waffling around trying to triangulate on a palatable plate of issues for "the center"...and his notorious divorce ended it for him.
So who is left? Huckabee? Maybe, but he has his own past to reconcile.
Duncan Hunter would be a RESOUNDING YES...but Wall Street appears dead set against a man that actually would restore the country and limited government.
So we will have to somehow fund him WITHOUT any such support...and likely AGAINST whomever they and Rupert Murdoch settle on as "their guy".
Sara Palin has been a breath of fresh air. Sincerity. Conservative principles. Honesty. And courage.
A courage which was amply demonstrated in her fantastic conduct as Alaska Governor, and all during the short two months of a vicious national campaign against her.
She has shown she "gets it" about energy policy. When McCain didn't. She gets it about illegal aliens. McCain and the W and Senate RINO herd didn't. She gets it about the trade deficit NOT being good for the economy...nor acceptable. She gets it about needing a strong defense.
Now that she is out from under the campaign umbrella... It would be interesting to see her take on McCain's notorious opposition to building more F-22's or our own Air Tankers to replace the aging fleet of KC-35s...or his opposition to the need for far more Navy ships.
Her popularity in our party right now makes me fear for its future.
Our party? OUR PARTY? Which party would that be? Clearly you can not be talking about the GOP, as "your party".
We conservatives are taking it back.
As Ted Nugent shows the way...
