DeMint is normally pretty good. So far he's adamantly saying he's not going to run, as does Christie. Thune has a couple of other problems I've seen before, too much RINO there.......

I do worry that a bunch of conservatives may jump in giving the nomination to Romney by splitting the vote too much. He's got a lot of money he can burn while others wallow.

Sarah's fine on immigration, not chancy at all. She keeps saying the important thing to do is seal the border, that it's a priority, and somehow people with secret decoder rings are sure she means to let them all come in, vote, steal the treasury, get free health care, free tuition, citizenship, and anything they want. As to LOST, I have no idea why she backed that at one time. Temporary insanity maybe?

Did you know John Bolton backed it for a couple of years as well?

Gaaaaa.

So did the United States Navy. They still do. Their position is that it codifies very favorable "customary practices" as it relates to territorial waters access for purposes of keeping sea lanes open.

Palin took the position as governor that ratifying LOST in the face of continuing Russian encroachment on the largest undeveloped oil & gas reserves on the planet (Chukchi & Beaufort Sea off the Alaskan coast) that would be protected by the treaty for America, as well as diddling by Washington and enviro-wackos on development of these resources, was preferable to frittering away our hope for energy independence (and the end of Alaskan dependence on federal handouts).

She's made no statement om L.O.S.T since she left office. It will be interesting what position she takes if she runs for president. She could station a couple of carrier battle groups in the Aleutians and tell the U.N. to go screw and to lay off American resources-- problem solved. LOL.

DeMint worshipers.

He could stab his hand, swear an oath to God he's not running, and sign a guarantee in his own dripping blood that he's not running in 2012 and they'd still be shouting that we just need to will it to happen even HARDER!

He's not running = he's going to run.

Reminds me of that scene in “The Life of Brian” where Brian gets called the Messiah no matter how many times he denies it. LOL “Only a true 2012 candidate would deny they're running!”
