They were talking about Michael Steele on the Dennis Prager show the other day. I like the idea of Steele as VP.

McCain needs someone to deliver the South...He thinks it's Crist but Crist won't deliver the South.

Someone like Bob Riley - Alabama or Haley Barbour - Mississippi would be better choices.

Bob Riley

From the article:

And while we’re on this topic we should also mention Duncan Hunter. Had Hunter been a senator, a governor, military leader or even a big city mayor, he would have done far better in this year’s primaries. Hunter has the ability to succinctly explain the conservative point of view on a whole host of issues. Much of his philosophy is rooted in common sense and compassion. He’s tough on immigration, but for security reasons. On all issues, he’s practical, sensible and without malice. Expect him to begin a run for governor, lieutenant governor, or for a senate seat in 2010. Also expect him to become a much larger force in GOP politics.

Military leader? So, does this guy want General Peter Pace or General David Petraeous to run for prez? Duncan Hunter has been on the House Armed Forces Comm. for 27 years. He helped rebuild and equip the military after the K'toon decimation. As the chairman of the committee he managed a budget of over $630 billion, IIRC. He was a decorated Army Ranger and served 2 tours of duty in Vietnam. His son is a Marine Captain who served 2 tours in Iraq and 1 in Afghanistan. Why on earth would Congressman Hunter want to sully himself by becoming sInator? Since when are sInators considered good presidential material? This year, that's when!

Duncan Hunter has actually done something positive for the country during his 27 years as a public servant. Much more than the other political hacks that sit on their backsides on Capitol Hill sucking up every dime they can steal from the American people.

I nominate Alaska’s Governor Palin: she would not only help repair the rift with the conservative base, she (and, for a moment, her husband) are rebuilding the base single handed!

McCain would clearly prove his insanity to name Crist as his VP....

As if McCain isn't repulsive enough -- adding that tanning bed closeted homosexual to the ticket would signal the end of the Conservative content in the Republican Party...

Duncan Hunter may be the only one who could get me to vote for a McCain ticket.

I've been too busy in the mornings to listen to Rush in quite a while, but I know that something always seems to come up where Governor Palin is concerned! (This probably explains her 4.5 kids...)

This whole conversation is nothing more than one more step in the process of suckering conservatives.

J.C. Watts would be a great choice — conservative, a pastor, former QB, former Member of Congress, and did I mention that he’s black?

I like Michael Steele

So do I, but we want him available to run in Maryland in 2010 for either Senator or Governor.

God is my copilot, and Crist is my running mate?
