He does kinda look like a young RR. He also understands and can communicate the issues in a way that folks can understand, which is something that RR excelled at. Also like Reagan, Ryan comes off as authentic,thoughtful and sincere. Yet he is tough as nails in his principles. He is humble and smart.

People are getting really tired of Obama’s arrogance and narcissism. Ryan could be a great alternative to that Obama hubris in 2012. No matter which side of the aisle someone is on or whether they even follow politics, the American people don’t like thugs and bullies...period.

I've been at Rubio functions several times since he announced his candidacy. He's the real deal! I watched and listened to him give a rally speech in Clearwater, in the very early stages of his campaign, at a sports bar and cafe, stand on a table in the middle of a huge crowd and give an hour and a half extemporaneous speech. Fielded questions and answered them and didn't equivocate! I have a video of that event.

Boy, the conservatives had better get their message aligned with this stupid idea that the tea parties are racist.
I’ve heard at least 5x in the last two days this so called incident with Lewis last week was not only true but they parse it as a collective mob. Geez, I am so sick of hearing about it and nobody challenges it, they just sit there and take it. MTP was disgusting, they are so full of crap and Frank Rich has an absolutely BS article in the NYT this morning.
