Oh, sure—Romney’s much more influential than Palin.
To: yongin
May as well be ranking noodles for their structural strength:
10. Rigatoni
9. Tortellini
8. Lasagna
7. Spiroccheti
6. Spaghetti
5. Macaroni
4. Linguini
3. Vermicelli
2. Bucatini
1. Fettuchini
The whole lot is a waste of skin, electrolytes, carbohydrates, water, protein, lipids.
They are toast as much as are the Rats in 2010 unless they start singing a different tune.

Of all the candidates who are even semi-plausible Barbour is the most accomplished pro. If he runs he will re-shuffle the deck for 2012.
To: caddie
How could you not have cavatelli or rotini on the list?! Oh, and Lasagna should be ranked higher ... MUCH higher.

I can’t figure out why they keep shoving Romney in our faces after his health insurance debacle in Mass.
And what about Maurice Clemmons for Huckabee?
Some of these people are just a waste of time.

Yes. Let's have Romney push RomneyCARE and ObamaCARE.
That should be just the ticket ... Obama.

************************
Jindal is a valuable conservative asset, but would make a very poor candidate for President. He would be brilliant in a cabinet position.
People seem to set him at no worth or infinite worth. These assessments are both wrong. I do not think he is the right personality or skill set for an executive. He would be an incredible force multiplier for a strong executive however, as he was for Governor Foster.

If Haley Barbour is #1, why does everyone covet Sarah’s endorsement? Things that make you go, “Hmmm”....

**************************
I agree with your assessments, but he is not going to do the “crowds were electrified” thing well at all. He can be a bit . . . unexciting. In a couple of years though, people may be ready for a grownup, and that may not be such a bad thing.
