I think just about anyone will be able to beat Obama.
The Republican Party and the GCM will nominate Mitt Romney. It’s his turn.
From Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitch_Daniels
Daniels was part of the Reagan Administration when he became chief political advisor and liaison to President Ronald Reagan in August 1985.
He is a Presbyterian. Daniels is a grandson of Syrian immigrants and was honored by the Arab-American Institute for his work in the community.
I kind of like Paul Ryan more. He gave Hussein an a*s whipping the other day.
I’ve seen this guy on C-Span. He’s a down to earth, smart, modest individual—everything Obama is not. Put up against him, Obama would look like the egomaniacal, preening phoney that he is. Daniels has gravitas. Republicans could win with him.
That’s an interesting article in Wiki. I like how he lowered property taxes, and wants the tax caps passed into law.
I heard the same. I’d LOVE to see a video of it.
We’re in bad shape if the best that we can do is to nominate Mitch.
Mitch would be a great pick for Sec. of the Tres. in the Palin Adm.
Bean counters don’t make for great people for National elections One reason Mitt will never win.
Mitch would be a better team player in the cabinet
Paul Ryan was the first name Sarah Palin came up with a week ago for a person she respects. Another person for her cabinet. Also a leader in the making in congress
There are a number of bold, young turks & turkettes moving up the GOP ranks, all of whom have potential.
I honestly believe the majority of voters are desperate for a calm, mature, optimistic realist with solid experience. A combination of Ike & Reagan.
Sarah (in spite of her own substantial positives), will probably suffer blowback left by Pelosi & Hilary’s witches brew.
Don’t see anyone with all the qualifications just yet. In two -three more years someone will emerge - and we’ll all be pleasantly surprised. God willing.
Mitch Daniels has been a very good EXECUTIVE in Indiana. If he decides to run (and, I rather doubt it)... he would be a formidable candidate.
He’s LIKABLE and ACCOMPLISHED,
That’s a pretty powerful combination.
I have not really been paying much attention to the speculation over who will run in 2012, but he would be at the top of my list of consideration. A solid track record of successfully applying conservative principles, executive experience, a firm grasp of national issues, proven ability to attract voters beyond the conservative base; he seems like a candidate straight from central casting.
Daniels is a grandson of Syrian immigrants and was honored by the Arab-American Institute for his work in the community.

Oh, H*LL no!
Romney falls in that just about portion - ie, one who cannot win. That is why the powers that be will push him.
They left Syria for a reason. They came to America.
p.s. He was not born in Syria;)
