Sarah Palin is mentioned, but as an observer.
Scratch that otherwise interesting article.
:D
I will respectfully differ with you on this.
In my opinion it is not BS. The fact that people question it makes it a legitimate issue to be considered. And you can bet that if conservatives are questioning it, then liberals will attack it.
Saying that it didn’t matter for Zero doesn’t mean it’s ok for us. I have a hard time believing that either Jindal or Rubio is absolutely the #1 best possible conservative candidate we could run even if without eligibility questions. (I have a similar attitude toward Jeb Bush or any Bush running. Isn’t there anyone else??? It’s not because I hate Bush. It’s because I don’t like political dynasties and I believe there are other, much more qualified candidates.)
Oh Yeah Bobby, That’s just what we need a more intellectual approach to Conservatism.
I know that the Democrats elected an unqualified Muslim, but that doe not mean the Republicans want to cross that line and elect a non-Natural bor to the job.
>> That man is Scott Walker.
I like Scott Walker.
Two problems with Scott Walker, though:
a) No college degree. You don’t care; I don’t care. But it WILL be an obstacle to his getting elected.
b) He and his party couldn’t deliver WI to Romney, even with boots on the ground fresh from his overwhelming victory in the recall. WFT is up with that?
Romney could not deliver Wisconsin, what did Walker have to do?
I still think that reflects more on the weakness of Romney as a candidate more than anything.
I’m not very certain that we’ll have a presidential election in 2016.
It will be very interesting to see how the MSM handles Rubio and Jindal in regards to eligibility as this moves forward.
I have to wonder if that is part of the reason Romney didn’t pick them...they didn’t want to get into it.
“The fix is in. Jeb Bush will be the GOP candidate and will win the presidency... whether we like it or not.”
Many times reality hurts. You are correct about Jeb being the next RINO nomination.
It is a done deal as we speak.
“How ‘bout the fact that he hasn’t yet served a single day in the US Senate? Geeez....’
Such inconvenient facts didn’t hinder the current Occupier in Chief.
Well then the GOP is done.
Because Cruz has zero days of experience so far. Great potential. Will still have great potential in 2024. The GOP is not Obama’s Democrat Party.
Might not be any elections in 2016. Communists are trying to turn us into a dictatorship. Half way there now with elections that will resemble communists Countries. No term limit and the communists dictator always seem to win. Even if he looses.
just because Walker won WI as governor doesn’t mean he’d win on the Presidential level. Under your logic we should noimnate a Rick Scott/Tom Corbett ticket, lock down FL and PA and we’d be all set.
not saying Walker wouldn’t be good, but just not for that reason
>> what did Walker have to do?
“more than he DID do”, apparently. Or does the buck stop nowhere at the state level vis a vis organizing to win?
Not looking for an argument, but I got slapped hard upside the head with a cold fish a couple weeks ago. I’m tired of playing the rah-rah Freeper Fantasyland game. No more patience for it. Sorry.
Get a grip. We're not Democrats.
Ted Cruz (who hasn't even been sworn in yet) is not going to run for president, and few on our side would support him if he did.
“The danger, of course, is that Republicans get pulled into a bitter fight over the direction of the party”
Out of this nettle danger we pluck this flower safety.
The bitter fight can’t come soon enough.
