Can anyone explain why we ran a “Republican” for the White House who hates Republicans? Because it was his turn. Same reason we ran Bush I, the same reason we ran Dole, and to some lesser extent the reason we ran "W."
We haven't had the genuine article on the ticket since Reagan. Now THAT was a maverick choice.

I think this “turn” thing is meaningful to the point that we need to be arguing for 4 years that’s it’s Sarah’s turn now. We can say it’s time for a woman if it comes to that. Sarah Palin is far more conservative than all other options except Jindal, who is younger and makes a great heir apparent to her. “It’s Sarah’s turn.” Let’s say it over and over again until it’s taken as gospel. The moral high ground gets you about halfway there. After that, you need to play dirty.
