U.S. Rep. Thaddeus McCotter of Michigan says he’s giving serious consideration to making a run for the Republican nomination for president.

Sure. SOMEBODY needs that .00000001 percent of the vote. Might as well be Thaddeus.

He gets a 0% rating from NARAL, and 100% from the National Right to Life Committee. He seems to pass my litmus test. I’ll look into him further, should he decide to run.

This guy is a solid Reagan Conservative. I would vote for him in a minute and he has the “Red Eye” audience as his base. How could he lose?

I told my sister the other day that if Herman Cain got the nomination, I wouldn’t mind seeing Mr. McCotter as his running mate.

YES! Perfect ticket.

Once they got over the “who are they?” confusion, the left would sh*t their pants.

I had high hopes for McCotter until he came out strongly for the auto bailout. I realize he’s from Michigan...but still..

He does have great wit and is a smart young man all the same.

I like him, too.

He's sharp as a tack; love it when he's on Red Eye.

He would do in 2016. Let him serve in Congress a little longer. We need him there.

Or for Stabenow's seat in 2012.

I wish Rob Steele would run against Stabacow. He nearly beat Dingleberry, and that has NEVER been done before in that leftist union district (Ann Arbor and Downriver). Steele’s a solid conservative,a TRUE TEA party conservative, a cadiologist and strongly opposed to 0bamacare.
