Conservatives AND Republicans are going to blow this big time!

[Da Coyote]

There’s a good chance they will.

Any way we can send all the RINOs to the sun?

Then, we might have a chance.

[Major Matt Mason]

They are the stupid party, so it is virtually a lead-pipe cinch that they'll blow it.

[af_vet_rr]

Sowell forgets one very important thing: The Tea Party movement. Either the GOP will embrace it, or the GOP will fall by the wayside as Conservatives tire of being told we have to have moderate Republicans.

[EBH]

It will be interesting to see the responses to this post. If the vast majority thinks they will blow it...

Then we have to ask ourselves...

What the hell are we waiting around for?

[MNJohnnie]

Cue the Establishment GOP machine presenting the usual Election year false choice. "You got to all get out of the way of A since only HE can beat B".

Why choose either when A is merely the other side the same coin B is on?

Really lost a lot of stature with this one Dr Sowell

[Ronin]

"Mitt Romney, who is nothing if not versatile in his positions..."

I admire an elegant turn of phrase.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Quite likely.

Which would be criminal.

[onyx]

All have been severely damaged, and before the first primary vote has been cast!

Unity? Heck no!

Bachmann has been painted as “way out there and gaffe prone.”

Perry as dumber than dirt and worse.

Cain as a serial sexual harasser, all unfounded of course.

PAGING GOVERNOR SARAH PALIN!

[justsaynomore]

I usually agree with Sowell, but I disagree with his point that Cain’s surge is over.

Cain is still leading in key states: IA, FL, SC, as well as NC ,TN, OH, SD, NE, PA, ME, WV, VA, GA, TX, AZ, HI, WI, IL.

It is WAY too early to count him out.

blow it? yes, of course. without question

there is only one way to keep progressives out of the WH in 2012

[fortheDeclaration]

Obama is no FDR.

The GOP now controls the House, will retake the Senate and controls most State Governments.

Such was not the case in 1932-44.

When the GOP made a strong comeback in the Congressional elections in 1938, unseating many New Dealers, the New Deal was over and FDR switched to foreign policy.

The War kept FDR in power after that.

[dfwgator]

Republicans are like the Texas Rangers, they’ll blow it when they are one strike away from winning it all.

[phillyfanatic]

The question should be asked of the Blue state liberal lemmings in Ohio, Mich, Minn.etal if they still want to stick with a failed socialist liberal secularist who is a wuss on free enterprise, jobs, energy , borders and beating the Islamofasicsts. It is not Pubs unless they continue to elect RINOS for their nominees. It seems that with Indies, TEAS,maybe Libertarians and Reagan Dems once more not wanting a repeat of Obamaism, perhaps the GOP will unite and select a good duo of conservs who are tough minded with real solutions. Whoa, that sounds like Newt and a Perry or Bolton,or even Jeb Bush ticket. Hmmm.

[absalom01]

...throw their support to another conservative candidate.

I just want to know who in the world he's talking about as the "other" conservative candidate?

[Matchett-PI]

bttt

[freekitty]

Just for the heck of it; why don’t we run a conservative candidate? What a great idea.

[zeestephen]

“.....there is also no iron law that all elections will be decided by the state of the economy.”

Think Detroit.

The definition of a progressive socialist is a voter who doesn't care if his standard of living goes down if everybody else’s standard of living goes down, too.
