Sounds like fun already ... the Tampa Bay Times released the names of some of the speakers slated for the RNC convention in Tampa later this month, and it looks to be a promising lineup. The Times reported that, as of now, it's unclear where these speakers are slotted, and the rest of the lineup--including the keynote speaker--remains unknown. Names so far include conservative powerhouses New Mexico Gov. Susanna Martinez and South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley. Florida Gov. Rick Scott is also speaking.
Here's a portion of the Times report:
Florida Gov. Rick Scott, Sen. John McCain and former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice are among seven headline speakers announced today for the Republican National Convention in Tampa.The first look at featured speakers also includes South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, Ohio Gov. John Kasich and New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez.
The keynote speaker and others will be named closer to the Aug. 27-30 event, Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus said in announcing the headliners, whom he called "some of our party's brightest stars, who have governed and led effectively and admirably in their respective roles."
So far, the lineup looks off to a fairly good start. Conservatives will definitely be represented well--both socially, with the inclusion of Mike Huckabee, and practically, with competent and current gubernatorial voices like Martinez and Haley--and Rice remains a popular figure in the GOP.
The only one of those seven I would care to hear would be Martinez simply because I know very little about her. I don’t expect to watch any of either convention this year. Too boring and predictable. I will consider it a “victory” of sorts if the VP nod does not go to Condi or Jebbie. Anything else we can tolerate.
LOL!
Did you not read post#27 and watch the YouTube video in post#79? I suggest you do both and stop whining, because Sarah isn’t and Newt isn’t either. Stop being a crybaby

The Also Ineligible RINO Romney:
Romney: "Obama was born in the United States"
Romney: "Obama Doesn’t Need a Birth Certificate"
Romney: "The citizenship test has been passed"

Romney - the Magic RINO:
"I'm not running as the Republican view
or a continuation of Republican values.
That's not what brings me to the race.
(Romney Video, accessed 9/19/07)
"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party
over to the traitors in the battle just ended.
We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged
to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support.
Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates
wouldn't make any sense at all.""
-- President Ronald Reagan

Okay since you obviously didn't get my answer let me clarify it for you with this question: Is there any evidence that you are a conservative let alone a Republican. I am curious as to what makes you think she is not?
“Is there any evidence that you are a conservative let alone a Republican.”
You can check out my posting history and draw your own conclusions.
“I am curious as to what makes you think she is not?”
Point me to her policy statements on domestic issues that indicate she is a conservative. I noted a number of such issues in an earlier post to you. Can you tell me where she stands on them?
If not, why do you claim she is a conservative? Do you also think Colin Powell is a conservative?
Unfortunately, to Kaslin, anyone who has
supported Obama (like Romney and Ms. Rice)
are “conservatives”.
In fact, they are not.
After spending the day in Chicago fundraising, Mitt Romney
sat down with small business owners at Gino's East,
a pizza joint famous for their deep-dish pizza.
In fact, Romney himself tweeted a photo of a
delivery boy heading out with the loot, writing,
"Great deep dish at @ginoseast.
Sending the extra slices to @barackobama and his Chicago HQ team."
Are you trying to fool yourself as these links do all to the 
Why is TEAM ROMNEY ONLY willling to attack conservatives?
Fast and Furious. - Mr. RomneyCARE is quiet and hides.
Boy Scouts. - Mr. RomneyCARE is against conservatives.
Chick a fil - Mr. RomneyCARE is against conservatives.
Fake Birth certificate - Mr. RomneyCARE is against conservatives.
“Unfortunately, to Kaslin, anyone who has
supported Obama (like Romney and Ms. Rice)
are “conservatives”. In fact, they are not.”
He does indeed use the word “conservative” pretty loosely if he considers either Romney or Rice as conservatives. Romney we know about. We’ll see what he can bring to the table about Rice’s conservative bona fides.
If they thought it would bring them one micro-inch closer to within sniffing distance of any real scrap of power or control: CINOs would enthusiastically anoint Elizabeth Warren as a true conservative. ;)

White House Quotes Romney in Defense of Health Care
It's not every day that you see Jay Carney quoting Republican presidential front-runner Mitt Romney from the White House podium.
But that's what Carney did Thursday as reporters pressed for the president's reaction to the Affordable Care Act heading to the Supreme Court before the 2012 election amid questions about its constitutionality.
Carney's quoting served the dual purpose of defending the president and trying to drive a wedge between Romney and some of his Republican rivals, who have charged that the former Massachusetts governor's health reform law on the state level bears too much of a resemblance to the plan that conservatives derisively call "Obamacare."
"A former governor of Massachusetts just said the other day, 'The idea for a health care plan in Massachusetts was not mine alone,'" Carney said, reading from notes as he continued quoting Romney. "'The Heritage Foundation, a great conservative think tank, helped on that. I'm told that Newt Gingrich, one of the very first people who came up with the idea of an individual mandate, did that years and years ago. It was seen as a conservative idea to say, you know what, people have a responsibility for caring for themselves if they can. We'll help people who can't care for themselves, but if you can care for yourself, you've got to take care of yourself and pay your own bills.'"
Without ever mentioning Romney by name, Carney concluded, "That's the former governor of Massachusetts describing the individual mandate and why it's smart policy, and we certainly agree."
