Just make sure no RINOs run in the primary. The press and the cross voting dems and indpendants (the ones pulling republican ballots in the primaries) won’t know what to do.

Right the whole House is up. I’m referring to the GOP taking over either or both chamber(s). Most likely won’t happen.

Personally, I’d love to see a Mike Pence or Ted Poe or Steve King (all from the House) run for President.

Has there ever been a House member directly elected President?

I think one long endless campaign turns off voters.

I don’t know right off the top of my head. The decline of the Republicans was obvious in 2006 and our present economic woes resulted from the Democrats takeover. 2006 was a Congressional election. That is where the base needs to be rebuilt, in Congress. And the Governors.

True - we just lived through one. Acutally, it’s been a camapign since the 2000 campaign, IMHO.

I never hear of Newhouse (the clown who says that Palin is damaged goods), but I do know who Rasumssan is...

...and for those that don’t feel like lining, he says that 60+ percent of Republicans want Palin in 2012, versus around 10% (at best) for any other.
