Governor Barbour of Mississippi. Duncan Hunter. John Hoeven of North Dakota. Jon Kyl possibly. Jim Demint There are plenty of good conservatives that can win at the top of the ticket.

Possibly? None of these will win. Leaders stand out because they are leaders. Not because they were selected at the “possibility” that they could win. I mean no disrespect, however, I am very leery of the “someone will emerge” philosophy. Leadership is clearly visible, and, aside from palin, there is no single person within the party possess the unique qualities that she has.

When you come across a candidate that has the “WOW” factor, then you run that candidate. Most republican office holders are absolute duds personality wise. In palin you not only have a dynamic and likable personality, you have a hard core, rock solid conservative, and, yet, people still want to toss around the names of random, old, weakened, beat down into a corner white guys. Nothing against old white guys, I am one, but we have failed, and that is obvious.

Perhaps one day we will find our cajones again, but until then, a righteous woman whom bears fear will suit me just fine.

Barbour? From what I understand he sold out on the “eminent domain issue”....The rest? Don’t know....hear DeMint on the radio, and know Jon Kyl is maybe okay.....don’t know what kind of “presence” they have.....sorry, we NEED and WANT someone with PRESENCE, ...we live in a media age.....Leadership also has FOLLOWERS....not many following those on your list....far as I can tell....at least Not Yet....we shall see.
