Thank you for posting this...I was just looking for it.

I especially liked the way he closed the speech.
He’s a visionary and a leader, i.e., inspiring.

Spine, guts, gonads is an infusion desperately needed in Conservatives; long past due. Without these three traits, we’re TOAST and freedom is lost.

Pence, Demint, Palin, Bachmann, Hunter. We’ve got some good folks out there.

Excellent stuff!

[Brilliant]

I think that of the choices we’ve seen so far, he’s the best.

Thanks, I’m watching it now. He’s generally been great, and kudos to him for his terrific voting record. Only thing I’m not so sold on is his proposed 20% of GDP amendment to the Constitution.

PRESIDENTIAL TIMBER

It is difficult for someone with credentials that include only the House of Representatives to make it to the White House but it was done by a fellow named Abraham Lincoln.

Judged against the field, Pence obviously has the forensic skills, the bearing, and the elusive but all-important gravitas to be considered for the top job. His conservative pedigree is impeccable.

By default he is at the top of my list: Palin is likely not to run and has not done what is necessary to increase her gravitas to neutralize the main beef against her; Romney is unsatisfactory to many conservatives because of his pedigree; Huckabee has put to many pounds back on and is probably content at Fox but, importantly, he is scattershot; Gingrich has the intellectual candlepower that probably exceeds Pence and he has superior forensic talents but there is no one more likely to split the party, in my opinion much to its loss;

By default then, I am looking hard at Pence
