All the Global Warming is B/S. I live in South Central Florida and have had to have my heat on More the last two Years than the previous Five. It is a nasty cold day today with no Sun, and those Southern California residents are sure not thinking about global warming since they got the Blizzards that ruined their Citrus Crops and Produce Crops. If the rats would shut the hell up for a change they would not think that there was global Warming because they would not feel all the Hot air spewing from their stupid ranting and raving in their attempt to bring down the President and Vice President and Put Blinky The Botox Queen in as President.

Mitt has an edge on the money and has an even bigger edge on having accumulated a serious fortune via Bain & Co. by earning it unlike the grifters from Arkansas. If he wants to be Potus, money will not stop him.

He is also not an Allen-like wannabe. He has other positive attributes, the most important of which is dealing with the MSM, many of whom fear his candidacy the most. Being a Pubbie governor in Massachusetts must be like a red head playing for the NBA.

His LDS affiliation ordinarily would be a major issue, but IMO conservatives no longer can afford or enjoy ruling out candidates with the Chinese menu approach (one from column A, two from column B and NONE from column C.)

There can not be great leaders in the absence of themes which run through the Left, Right, and Center of the American consciousness. When these themes are present, greatness is possible. When they are absent, it's all bickering and name calling; and the Rats have the advantage there.

Yep.

I DID see that last night...but I forgot to post about it.

Thank you!! Fred Barnes goes off the reservation to much for my tastes....I don't trust him.

Just like hearing Bill O'Reilly and Laura Ingraham talking about Webb's rebuttal to the SOTU address....they both talked about what a great speech he gave, and what a PATRIOT he is...and BOR said he couldn't wait to get him on his show!!!

What is up with these people??

Thank YOU!!!..

Yes...Webb even referenced his disdain for the capitalist system in his rebuttal speech...the one that I just posted about...where Bill O'Reilly and Laura Ingraham praised it.

Neither one of them pointed out his desire for income redistribution...shame on them.

I disagree. You do NOT pick up the squishy middle by being Democrat lite. You pick up the squishy middle by standing strong and running openly as the Anti DC candidate.


Every President but 1 for the last 35 years has been elected has run against DC. The candidate tied closest to DC loses. LBJ, Ford, Carter, GW Bush 1 LOST to candidates who ran as outside the current ruling Establishment. Even in Nov 2006 the Democrats ran AGAINST the ruling elite in DC. The only reason why GW Bush 1 won was he rode Reagan's coattails. A Congress critter can run against DC, a Senator cannot. For some reason the voters seem to put Congress critters and Senators in different categories.

Face it. You just do not like Hunter because he is not pretty enough. It sounds shallow but it is a factor in national politics. Don't dance around it. In a visual media age, physical attractiveness matters. Appearance probably cost Nixon the race in 1960 so you even have a point.

Super POST....I love how you put that.

I have posted too many times today, and didn't articulate it even close to how you just did.

BRAVO!

"Hillary said she would pull out of Iraq IF President Bush had not done so once she's elected."

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1779104/posts

Hillary - "If I'd Been President In 2002...") (Video)

hillary has also said she would not have gone to war in 2002 - but she is never asked what she would have done after 9/11. Following are quotes from 1997-2002 - including hillary's - all background information given to the Bush Administration as the clinton's left with the silverware!!

JANUARY 30, 2004 | Document Location: http://www.glennbeck.com/news/01302004.shtml

"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real..."
- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003 | Source

"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force -- if necessary -- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security."
- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002 | Source

"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line."
- President Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998 | Source

"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program."
- President Bill Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998 | Source

"We must stop Saddam from ever again jeopardizing the stability and security of his neighbors with weapons of mass destruction."
- Madeline Albright, Feb 1, 1998 | Source

"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983."
- Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998 | Source

"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs."
Letter to President Clinton.
- (D) Senators Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, others, Oct. 9, 1998 | Source

"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."
- Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998 | Source

"Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies."
- Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999 | Source

"We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandate of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and th! e means of delivering them."
- Sen. Carl Levin (D, MI), Sept. 19, 2002 | Source

"We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country."
- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002 | Source

"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power."
- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002 | Source

"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction."
- Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002 | Source

"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are confident that Saddam Hussein retains some stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to build up his chemical and biological warfare capabilities. Intelligence reports indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons..."
- Sen. Robert Byrd (D, WV), Oct. 3, 2002 | Source

"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years ... We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction."
- Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002 | Source

"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."
- Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002 | Source

"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction."
- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002 | Source

*****Love to have Glenn Beck do just one Chris Wallace spot on Sunday.

the more moderate middle of the road constituents that MIGHT either stay home..or vote independent or, heaven forbid, vote for a Dem....if the hard core right is TOO overly reflected in the candidate.

You mean like it was in Ronald Reagan? Conservative ideals sell, even to the middle, if they are sold effectively. Cowardly bet hedging and parrotting of the Marxist Media is what loses elections for Republicans.

Sandy Berger was a pawn - he did it for the clintons!! What ever he must have owed them must be a biggy.

What really surprises and disappoints me is that the Bush Administration let it ride.

It left our National Security as --- not a very important issue!!

You could very well be right. I liked Romney's charisma and the way he came across on TV the few times I've seen him. I know he has and can get the money necessary. I can't speak for others but his being a Mormon does not make a difference to me.

The areas I continue to struggle with Mitt Romney revolve around his seemingly contradictory stances on social issues as well as his bragging about his health care program in MA. It's a program that is now being shown to be a costly form of socialized medicine from what I've read. I will accept his reasons for changing to pro-life but I am still a bit confused over his recent past support for the homosexual agenda.

I am not for or against Romney. I practice what I've said to others, I'll wait and see what develops. I still believe it is too soon for us to choose our next candidate.

Sorry MNJ, you will have to do much better than that, Samantha is way above choosing a candidate solely for his looks. Could it be that we conservatives while nominating a candidate then are only allowed a 30% stake in that candidate at election time? Better check and see.
