The only thing good about even the prospect of a brokered convention is that the present candidates have pretty well destroyed each other for Obozo in the Fall. Can you imagine what it would do to the psyche of this nation if out of the GOP Convention came a young, fresh face (hopefully with a Conservative brain) and flushed down the toilet all the crap we’ve had with the present, and past, GOP candidates for the past year? Someone like Bobby Jindal of LA or the young Congressman Joe Walsh of Illinois, or New Mexico Governor Susana Martinez........ America would sigh a sigh of relief and probably go viral for that candidate.

Am I right or wrong? Anybody?

The Establishment would try to shove Daniels, Christie, or McDonnell down our throats.

I’m taking Newt FTW!

SC + FL = Newt Will Be Our Nom

Wrong. All liberals would vote for obama. Independents would vote for the name they recognize the most. obama. Better the devil you know than the one you don’t. Those names you mentioned are foreign to too many people.

Nobody knows those folks ~ but here's a thought for you ~ Illinois somehow borrowed $5 billion this last year and presumably that would cover payment of the $4.5 billion in unpaid bills lying about.

Did not happen.

Now they have $8.5 billion in unpaid bills.

To put it loosely, somebody in Illinois politics STOLE $5 billion.

Now who might that have been? Was it the Governor?

He'd be the 7th Governor of Illinois in a row to end up involved in crime.

Maybe it was the corrupt Democrat machine that surrounds the governor and occupies all the top spots in the state bureaucracy. Those are the folks who brought Obama to the top. Did they steal for Obama? Does he have the $5 billion?

There are things cooking in Illinois that may well bring down the Obama regime before mid-summer.

Stay tuned. Theft in Illinois government is always a problem, but this would be the biggest theft in their history. It's big by even California standards.

Stay tuned.

It’s a nice dream (and one I share, since I don’t really think any of our candidates are acceptable), but it would leave us with a candidate who hasn’t been properly vetted. Whoever it is, The Enemy would find SOMETHING (”In Eighth Grade, Candidate X accidently ran the cat over with the lawnmower!”)to immediately spin that into a Palin-like “Candidate X has been destroyed,” backing it up with quotes from (liberal) polls. And then we’d lose.

I agree - somewhat. America wouldn't sigh a sigh of relief, but genuine informed patriots would. That is the problem, the MSM information machine (contrary to popular notions around here) is not dead. It is alive, well and informing your neighbor as we speak. It is also shaping a myriad of idiots that also consider themselves to be erstwhile Conservatives in their political views.

FWIW, I pretty much agree with the tea party poster above that puts the proposition thus: a loss isn't a bad thing if it clarifies things in the end. For me, now, I have decided that it is the ideals that matter. If some fool tells me he has found his inner core (all these idiots do - including Fig(leaf) Newton) then welcome to the club - but you're hardly an able leader if you just began to figure things out. Not only that, but your track record up until this election is essentially deceit and accommodation - not acceptable.

Yes, I will agree that there is no perfect candidate just as there is no perfect person. However, if you're of a seasoned age and cannot tell a liar from a truth teller in the relationships you're in, you're a hapless fool and only doomed to continue being unable to divine truth from fiction.

An open leader, with the overall direction of duty to the Constitution, would, indeed, electrify the alienated among us; and make no mistake, true Americans ARE alienated. It is because we are now a minority in a drugged and propagandized socialist state that we cannot understand why things are the way they are (why can't Austria be what she was in 1930?). When that simple truth is grasped, our true perspective - and challenges - become clear.

I’d like to think so but I’m not so sure. We’d have a very big fight on our hands with the “it’s his turn” wing.

Bobby Jindahl for Health and Human Services, a cabinet position. He has a PhD. in healthcare policy and I believe he would be the most effective in dismantlying th 0bamacare and putting forth a workable solution. I’d trust him more thn all of the other legislators that signed that piece of crap we have right now. From there, who knows. I’m a big fan of his.

“...to the psyche of this nation if out of the GOP Convention came a young, fresh face”

the ONLY “fresh face” the establishment it in ends to let out of a brokered convention has a Bush around its neck.

Thats ALL this is about...

If Gingrich is way out in front...Jebby will be his “
VP”.....
