These pompous knuckleheads would be wise to promote someone with personality and ideas. Nothing has hurt the GOP any more than the drab personalities and almost embarrassingly poor communication skills of GHWB, W and Juan McCain. It matters, and to hear those clowns dismissing the importance of personality and communication skills is a guarantee that the party is very unlikely to be led back to a strong position by them.
Nothing encouraging about the pow wows of this bunch.
Now, conservative leaders that is a whole different story, and, that too is sad. It does not appear that Republican “leadership” is going to allow conservatives to take the helm.

Don’t you think that with the reaction coming from the public right now that anyone considering the GOP run for the next election might lean more toward the conservative side? I think, for example, Romney...during his campaign we heard his views...well what’s to say that they have changed? I think he might be awesome for the economy, but I don’t see him getting in with the other issues. I don’t think people would believe him if he tried to come off as conservative now...
Yep, this is the Rockefeller/George Romney wing fighting for control all over again.

Certainly.
Any thing but a bold and strong move to the right would be suicide for the GOP.
My point was, that I don’t have confidence that the leadership of the Republican Party is going to allow that to happen.
And if the GOP picks Romney for their candidate next election, will conservatives in America FINALLY get the picture and leave the Republican party????
Yes I understood that. Well stated!
I guess all we have to hope for is getting different bodies in those seats come the 2010 elections.
Maybe?

How does that great Eagles song go?
Me....I’m already gone...
Ping! Ping!
We'll just see about that when SarahPAC makes its first quarterly report, oh yes we will.
Glad to have you back on board. Even if you think she's unelectable, it's plain she shares our values, and SarahPAC will be a kingmaker for decades to come.
Though it doesn’t seem likely at this point, MUCH stranger things have happened, and in shorter periods of time.
The GOP would be wise to look at the implications suggested by the groundswell of grassroots disatisfaction via the Tea Party phenomenon, and the absolutely electrifying political presence inherent in one Sarah Palin.
hmmm
I think you mean October 12...
Just shows how clueless they are. Sarah Palin was popular with the Republican base, and because of that, the MSM began to concentrate on her looks and her family, as a way to diminish her.
Secretariat Romney and the “party elites” can go straight to hell. And they can take their National Council for a New America and their new five year plans with them.
“The GOP would be wise to look at the implications suggested by the groundswell of grassroots disatisfaction via the Tea Party phenomenon, and the absolutely electrifying political presence inherent in one Sarah Palin.”
The Tea Partly Phenomenon is a steam roller headed for both parties with Sarah Palin in the drivers seat.
The GOP will never see it coming.
That post made no sense.
Romney is a Rockefeller (ptooo!) Republican. Never get my vote.
