Palin/West, Palin/Newt. I’m sure some others might fill in the blank space.
What is needed:
1. Courage
2. Personal moral principles
3. Understanding and adherence to Constitutional governance of a SMALL federal government
4. NOT a DC/GOP insider
5. A track record of going after corruption - in BOTH parties
6. Not a craven lickspittle who quivers in front of the media OR Dems or RINOs
The only person I can think of offhand is Palin, although I am sure there are others. But they are not DC insiders. We need FRESH people in DC - all levels - who are not DC/GOP establishment cess pool inhabitants.
