Keyes will never happen. Two reasaons are that he is a Republican controlled conservative and is there for window dressing only. W has yet to implement a truly conservative constitutional policy. This is the position of the Republican insiders. Only Globalists need apply.

Keyes, if he can dodge the corporate bribery bullets, might actually move us in the direction of Constitutional Government and put the people back in power this is something the Republican backroomers don't want as this violates their globalist plans. A "compasionate conservative" is just a redressed democrat of 30 years ago.
In other words the steady slide toward socialism but just a little less obvious than the communist-democrat party.

Hey, I never said that a Keyes Presidency or vice-presidency would be with the back-roomers or Bushies approval. Quite the contrary. It will be over their dead bodies. And there would necessarily be a donny-brook similar to 1976 and 1980 in the GOP primaries and caucuses. But it would clearly be for the best. So let's make it so.
