It will be good. I would have enjoyed Virginia's new Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli to do it instead.

Good. Have a conservative give the address instead of the RINO Brown.

He’s good. He’s telegenic and a competent speaker who comes across as intelligent and earnest. He doesn’t have Brown’s charisma, but he does come across as a serious guy.

As long as he stays positive and constructive. No Barry bashing, and stay away from republican rah rah. (R) was a nasty word during the last election and now will need a slow and balanced re-introduction to the mainstream voter.

i think he’ll do fine. he is a republican success story in a state that went for Obams, not quite as glamorous as Scott Brown, but i don’t think it would be fair to have Scott thrown into this task quite yet!

Excellent choice. He actually gets it and understands regular Americans.

Since Barry will be pushing his bank tax in the SOTU, I hope the Guv refers to it as the bank customer tax. Since that is who will be ultimately paying for it via higher fees.

I rather have a politician closer to Ronald Reagan give the GOP response than one closer to William Weld.

Words I hope to heaven NOT to hear:

"reaching out to our friends across the aisle"
"bipartisan"
"committed to cooperating"

I don't care what anyone says, these all portray weakness and a reluctance to assert a conservative agenda.

I wouldn’t worry - top of his agenda is pushing a bill to make it ILLEGAL to require someone to BUY health insurance ...

And anyone who watched the debate or has visited his website will agree with you. Some folks are in for another Michael Steele style let down.
