If you're a Republican who fell for the media drubbing of her, then shame on you. The party can do w/o mindless drones like you. I read in the NY Post this morning a story about how Tina Fey's TV show was down 500,000 in viewership, despite an appearance by Oprah. Gotta love it!    Sarah Palin is not damaged goods.

I'm a Jeff Flake fan, but the reality is that I don't see anyone capable of inspiring the half a billion that I mentioned.  There's too much animosity between the libertarian wing and the so-con wing right now, as I'm displaying. Best R's can hope for is a new Newt.  Maybe Flake will come through on that.

Dull. I didn't realize her kids were still young. I mean, I heard she adopted, but it seems long ago. I thought it was funny that her "facial rejuvenation" was for naught. Heh. She really thought she was going to get tapped for VP. Condi as a triple threat would be awesome. She should come out as gay even if she isn't. Have wondered what led Watts to retire when he had such a bright future. Dude, I have to believe that he's a good man. I'm not ready to give up on another one. Let's start the ball rolling for Jeri Thompson. (Ha! one of my Captcha words was "Gerry". It's a sign!) Yeah, Kay wants to be governor and she’ll probably win. Dull.

JC Watts hasn't run for a reason probably something he knows the media would savage him for and i do not blame him.  That is the handicap the Right has.  Our guys actually get vetted.  Huckabee is a really great affable guy and as you say craaaaaaaazy.  Kay Bailey is too boring and old and i hear she has her eye on Rick Perry's job.  I read somewhere she has a small child and wants to come home and do the Gov gig so they can be more settled.  Jeri Thompson, hell yes.  She is impressive and I love Fred.  I wish there was a fully qualified, really inspiring female to run against him in 2012.  I think it is time for a woman president.  A real ball breaker and not in the Hillary sense.

It's that important. One thing is for sure - the candidate/s need to be picked, vetted and groomed NOW. Obama ran the longest campaign ever. The party has to get our candidate/s comfortable with the idea and up to speed on what America will choose to elect. Some sacrifices may have to be made. The party may have to do long-term work on Congress - it probably can't be fixed by 2010. However Republicans need to get the Presidential campaign planned imminently. Is there another Reagan? Open question: Who is/are your pick/picks for 2012 - President and VP? In no particular order: Usual Suspects: Bobby Jindal (like him, exorcisms notwithstanding. Hey at least he's not an adulterer!) Tim Pawlenty Sarah Palin (if they don't ruin her this week) Mitt Romney (Boring, but rich) Mike Huckabee (craaazy) Condoleeza Rice (GWB tainted) Kay Bailey Hutchison (blah) Others Mentioned and New Considerations: Devin Nunes JC Watts (retired, but a good conservative) Michael L.  Williams Olympia Snowe (moderate) Susan Collins (moderate) Linda Lingle (moderate) My fun pick: Jeri Thompson (Fresh meat! Spitfire! Fred! as First Dude!) Joe, perhaps we’ll all be more willing to donate a little of what isn’t taken away from us in the next 4 years to the 2012 campaign. It’s that important.

There's a spate of intelligent, qualified, American-born Hispanic (Rep.) candidates. I'm still working on my list of possibles for 2012 heavy on minorities and women. I had held out hope for JC Watts this time around - I was enthralled by him since the beginning of his congressional career. My new favorite is Alfonzo, the Macho Sauce dude from YouTube. He needs to put down the light saber and run for office.  I don't know a thing about his education or background, but he has a good grasp on what conservatism is and is a hell of a speaker.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-JTd-8vUdw . Demure/Macho 2012! Margaret Sanger should have hooked up with Adolph Hitler had she not been so revolted by sex. What a monster. Oh, and you are a big Dune geek.
