How about Thune?

Sure...Thune fits the bill of the Paulites and the Chuck Baldwin-supporting truther pigs running amok here...

The idea is to only offer support to Republican Senators or Governors with little national name recognition from small, conservative states (Jim DeMint, Scott Thune, Haley Barbour) or Republican Representatives with little national name recognition from large Democrat-leaning states who have no chance in hell of delivering that state's electoral votes (Duncan Hunter).

Sarah Palin is a national figure and doesn't fall into either category. She ran for vice president and everyone knows her.

Pawlenty, McDonnell and Christie must be labeled as RINOs, for example. They're from strategic states, and in the next election, given the GOP nominee, they could be in play for the Republicans.

Anyone pushing candidates from small states safely in the Republican column or from Republican districts in heavily Democrat-leaning states, while calling big-state, well-known, popular candidates RINOs, is, likely as not, a liberal troll.

All conservatives should view such posters with at least one jaundiced eyeball.

That should read "John Thune." "Scott Thunes" is a bass player who most famously worked with Frank Zappa.

John is a good conservative.

I guess a lot of us voted for the Republicans that “could win” over the last 10 years, and here we sit with a Marxist in the WH, national healthcare has arrived, and we have a national debt that is going to grind us to dust. I don’t have much of a problem with Palin, but I’m not going to let the NYT or the Republican establishment pick my candidate again. BTW the term “truther pig” is very persuasive and really wins people over to your point of view.
