He’d make a fine Speaker of the House, though.

He will have to be Governor first.

I can see Mike Pence for 2016 or 2020, but not before. Too early.

Given the 5 minutes of Senate time Soetoro put in before seizing the presidency, I don't think this "he's not ready" excuse for Republicans holds water any longer.

If we can get any conservative into office, even if he's 5 years old, we need to do it.

The commies are in total control, and we need every hand, even inexperienced ones, to the pumps, before we go down for good.

Pence was awesome tonight speaking at the Definding the American Dream Summit in Arlington VA.

My favorite of his lines: “A recession is when your neighbor loses his job. A depression is when you lose your job. A recovery is when Nancy Pelosi loses her job!”

Too bad. He’s a real conservative. Unlike RINO’s Romney and Huckaphony.

Now if we could just get Pence to talk Romney and Huckabee out of the race.
