FYI..Politico today has a story about the same question....their list of possibles are Scott Walker, Paul Ryan, Ted Cruz,John Cornyn, Eric Cantor, Nikki Haley, Mia Love, Susana Martinez, Jeb Bush, and yes, of course, Chris Christie..

Hey, it's Politico, after all. I mean, what did you expect? At least Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Charlie Crist or either of the Koch Bros aren't on the list..

Cruz would be awesome...but that ain't gonna happen. Mitch would love to do it himself..I wonder if he'll try and exert pressure to get himself picked.

On the normally very accurate predictor that Politico is wrong nearly always..it won't be any of the above.

Here's my vote, FWIW: IMHO he'd be perfect..he's conservative, photogenic, and a great speaker..

Mike Lee

Surprised this Republican Party is even considering a response.

Who cares? I probably won’t even watch. I certainly won’t watch Der Reader.

Better question: Who will give the conservative response to the republican response?

Scott Walker hands down....

The masses need to see an articulate, reasoned, intelligent politican who can’t be labeled a bomb thrower, hate monger, elitist, who is an outside the beltway guy...

I would go for TED CRUZ to deliver the GOP response to the State of The Union Show.

The best response would be that delivered by a host of Republicans bellowing “You Lie” at each of the many many opportunities.

After that, nothing else would be required

Start looking with threatened RINO office-holders who need to appear conservative on a large stage. Since Boehner and McConnell are choosing, that means this is a patronage job.

Mike Lee is deeply brilliant, but Ted Cruz has the fire as well as the brilliance.

Who should deliver the GOP response

No one should respond. If hounded by the press and the radicals just say that lies, half truths, spins and exaggerations don't deserve a response.

Ted Cruz.

No one else in the GOP matters a hill of beans.
