Are things really that bad ?? LOL, just teasing you :)
It was just my opinion, I don't have any problems with you calling on him to run. Some like to post that they want DeMint to run, yet I know for sure he is not running either. Christie has his hands full in NY, home of the Soprano's.
I figure (national) Republicans may lose another unlosable race. I see little to inspire me there. Christie and Walker are inspiring.
That being said, there are at least three other current or potential candidates that I would work for and donate to.
Then the second tier, I could stomach but could not bring myself to work for, let alone actively support. Of the whole bunch, there is only one I could not vote for: his Romness, the only person this side of pond that could get O re-elected.
I am not a sufferer of PWS. I do understand some of the concerns of many who frequently post to the negative on pro-Palin posts, AKA PDSers. Therefor, I would suggest that, as far as FR goes, let us assume that SP is nominated. The best plan in such case is to have a great #2 ready to take over if their "she quit" argument has any value.
What seems obvious is the following list for VP, in my order of choice: 1. Rick Perry, if he would accept the second seat. 2. Herman Cain, same as RP, but likely more receptive. 3. Michele Bachmann, already running for VP, but not as trustworthy.
I know many will suggest any of several others, but as part of her cabinet, I see John Bolton as SoS, Rudy as AG, West as SecDef and either Cain or Ryan at Treasury. Next tier, Senate Majority leader and (surprise), Gingrich as speaker.
