No bashing naps! and thanks for posting this.

Wondering if there are any Ohip Freepers who can weigh in on Ohio. Do you really think that Santorum can win that state?

Here is the badass picture of the team, featuring (from left) Chuck Norris, evangelical leader and former Congressman J.C. Watts, GOP strategist Kellyanne Conway, Fred Thompson, Texas Gov. Rick Perry, Herman Cain, Michael Reagan, and Iowa State Rep. Linda Upmeyer. Todd Palin is apparently an honorary member.

I know who all the men are, but who are the two women?

Iowa House Majority Leader Linda Upmeyer and pollster/strategist Kellyanne Conway.

I’ve seen Kellyanne on FOX defending Newt for a while. I think Todd Palin would have been a better choice than that women they stuck in on the back right. Maybe they’re hoping people won’t look too closely and might think it’s Sarah Palin? ;)

Thanks for identifying the two women. I’ve heard Conway’s name before but never Upmeyer’s.
