Why do I suspect he just went up 10 points?

Oh, this is wonderful news! And yes, Sarah Palin for energy secretary. And get rid of the damned EPA!

Wow. He’s hiring adults. Stock went up half a point on Gingrich with that announcement.

I’m noticing that for as long as Romney has been campaigning for this office, he didn’t think of this first.

Tells you something, I think.

OK how about this:
Newt can Ask Mittens to be Ambassador to Chad AND
Sen McCain to be Ambassador to Viet Nam
Make Perry EPA Head
Make John S. Lehman Sec Def

Excellent choice.

I’m not convinced that Bolton can succeed in clearing out the leftist cadre that has controlled State for decades. However, he might actually try.

Heavens would that be a breath of fresh air: A Secretary of State who is actually working for America, its interests and its allies instead of working for America’s enemies, AGAINST America’s allies and interests like Hillery Clinton has been doing for nearly 4 years!

OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!

Romney does not have the Conservative instincts to make such a move. He’ll ask John McCain to be SOS.

Forced to support yet another candidate for whom I’m much less than enthusiastic, at least news items like this one may help.

I remain undecided.

Okay, so that's one reason to vote for him. I think we need a lot more.

I’d rather see Palin as ambassador to the UN, given her schmoozing skills and focus on American Exceptionalism.

Either is fine with me. Energy Secretary would open up a lot of American oil resources and create a bunch of jobs...
