Conservatives need to cross this guy off the list of potential POTUS candidates for 2012 immediately. We have a pathetic excuse for a list as it is.

So did the Dems and look what happened.

You’re making the mistake that far too many conservatives make: The number one qualification needed for a candidate is to be ELECTABLE. The Democrats had a very, very electable POTUS candidate in 2008 (and a second reasonably electable candidate), and the Republicans didn’t. ELECTABLE has to come FIRST — no other qualifications should get one iota of attention until the electability screening has been passed. Way too much conservative energy is irretrievably wasted on fawning over unelectable candidates, and subsequently on wailing over the very predictable results.

“We have a pathetic excuse for a list as it is.

Hey, here is a campaign slogan:

“Our pathetic candidate is better than yours”

Oh wait, that didn't work last year.
