I intend to support the most conservative candidate who can win 270 electoral votes. Those conservatives who can’t do that will just help Obama win.

I endorse this approach. Have you given any thought as to the positions and issues that translate into the required electoral votes? Of course, I realize that will be a moving target as time moves forward but what are the universally important issues?

That's what liberals and RINOs said about Reagan.

Makes her look better all the time.

Perhaps the all-knowing Will can just tell us who the next President will be and save us all the trouble of voting!

The little RINOettes are scared of Sarah and don’t want her to run precisely because she CAN be elected president and knock down their RINO castle of sand.

Don't underestimate the fact that even the indies can see Obama for what he is...

They may see Obama for what he is, but as of now, they are skeptical of Sara. She has just over a year to change minds. By then, most folks will have their minds set in cement regardless of what happens.

Can't stop talking about her, though, can ya' George?

The ruling class cannot take their eyes off her, and it fills them with self-loathing.

ineluctable

One of their bigger scores is having Bill O’Reilly on the payroll. Ole Bill never had a negative thing to say about Obama and spent the entire election poo-poo-ing all the communist, Bill Ayers, and Jeremiah Wright bombshells that could never be remotely denied, only minimized. O’Reilly is still doing it, and it’s been a real pleasure seeing Laura Ingraham clean his clock. When Bill gets bought, he stays bought!

There must be some serious Soros cash flowing his way, enough to make it worth his while if he gets found out and his entire career crashes.

I’m done riding the republican merry go round. If the gop nominates another MF rino I will vote down ballot conservatives and third party national.

I’m getting too old to wait “4 More Years”

If Huckabee gets the nomination, I’m sitting out the election. And to those who say: “That attitude will give four more years of Obama,” I say: “What’s the difference?”

One thing's certain -- Sarah has a helluva lot better chance of becoming President than Will's beloved Cubs have of ever winning the World Series.

Liberals and RINOs thought the people had their minds set about Reagan too—then when he ran HIS campaign he proved them a whole lot stupider than the people.

No, I have not yet given this much thought. I think that fiscal conservatism and limited government will trump in the next cycle, but since Obama will run on that platform, it may not count for much. Still too early to tell what the other issues might be. On a tactical level, the successful conservative candidate much aggressively counter EVERY attack made against them by the Left. A spurious charge becomes a fact when left unchallenged and the attacks will be fast, furious, and almost entirely spurious. Most of the leading Conservative candidates are already behind in this effort.

The most important thing will be to vet each candidate state by state and precinct by precinct in a cold hearted and unemotional fashion. Who can really win, and not some pollyanna hopey feely nonsense. White suburban women who voted for Obama in 2008 and Conservative Republican candidates in 2010 will elect the next President in 2012.

The more they scream, the more it convinces me they KNOW Palin can win. Obama is weak, the economy is about to hit more turbulance and “hope-n-change” has hit the skids.

They don’t want her to run....not even to try.

Do you agree with NELSON111? Should we let David Letterman and Jay Leno choose our candidate?

Go ahead and be lead by eneMedia. But don't forget, they always avoid telling you what "is," and try to convince about the "truth" of what "ain't."

If Palin runs for the nomination she has my vote above ANY of the so-called top-tier competitors.

That said, there's no certainty others won't enter the fray.

I can only think of Paul Ryan as somebody I would support over Palin. Perhaps another will emerge...but I doubt it.

NOBODY wants to run against her. I believe they believe that it will create so much animosity in the base that their political career would be over.

Same issue with Obama and the left.

Dated January 13, 2009:

Barack Obama took the next big step in his Republican charm offensive on Tuesday night, when he dined with several of the nation’s most prominent conservative pundits.

The president-elect arrived at the Chevy Chase, Md., home of syndicated columnist George Will shortly after 6:30 p.m., according to a press pool report. Greeting him at the residence were other luminaries of the conservative commentariat, including the Weekly Standard’s William Kristol, New York Times columnist David Brooks, and Charles Krauthammer of the Washington Post.
