You guys that think Karl Rove runs everything you don’t like from his secret control room are starting to sound a little like the liberals with their Koch brothers obsession.

Romney. T-Paw, Huckster, Newt, Daniels, Huntsman - are all going to lay down and fall over for obama. They will not fight back and be happy to lose 48 - 52 to the bama.

Trump, Bachmann, Palin are the only ones willing to go after muBarack, piss be upon him.

Cute.

>>>>>>You're right of course because everybody knows that no pro choice person has EVER become pro-life!

It does happen.

Trump's announcement at CPAC2011 that he was NOW pro-life, came at the same time with his announcement of a possible run for potus in 2012. Guess you think that was just coincidental?

Talk about gullible.

I trust he respects the issue enough; to not lie

What, in his history, makes him trustworthy? How has he earned that?

Kraut is very intelligent but he has inside-the-beltway-itis. He views all through a prism of ivy league and cocktail party class. It is not a matter of always agreeing with him, it is a problem with his biases that affect some of his opinions. he looks down on those not from the northeast and ivy educated, and he is too much into conventional wisdom of DC. I like him a lot, but he has shown to be very out of touch on a variety of issues.

I have no reason to doubt this happened but did The Donald say whether it would be republican, democrat or spoiler party?

Thanks...I cannot vote for anyone who is pro-abortion.

For me the woman has a right to choose whether or not she has sex and whether or not she takes birth control pills. After that her choice is to accept the results of her behavior.

“Krauthammer is brilliant.”


Wow, yes he’s very brilliant for Karl Rove’s “old” GOP establishment. Here’s a wake-up call for the sleepiest!!!

Trump has a history of picking fighters, and no one has been the fighter that Palin has been. I say he picks her.

Krauthammer is brilliant. Whether you agree with him or not is secondary. The only thing that "jump[ed] the shark" is that lame term "jump the shark". It is good to get honest and insightful opinions that don't necessarily align perfectly with your own.

So what if he is "brilliant"? Dr. Goebbels was "brilliant". What good is brilliance if it is misapplied? Krauthammer is totally aligned with the establishment good old boy Republicans of the Karl Rove/Trent Lott variety. There was time in which I valued Krauthammer's thoughts; but that time has passed.

I do not think we need to rally behind some unknown as some did with Duncan Hunter. But some all RINOs are no different than their democrat counterparts and are only interested in clinging to their own power.

Agreed. The social stigmas of abortion should not be a factor whatsoever. Maybe these women can find their conscience, go through the inconvenience and put the baby up for adoption instead of having it killed.

wow...I’m impressed with your ability to read what’s in a man’s heart. Silly me, I thought only the Lord could do that.

My vote will still go for that pit bull with lipstick. Trump is just on a gigantic ego trip.

If Trump runs I hope it is on the democratic side opposing zero for the nomination. That’s where he belongs. I’d say he would win overwhelmingly. In fact I’d cross over to vote in the primary for him.

You want to give Trump the benefit of the doubt, go for it. Just don’t ask me to join in your tomfoolery.

Btw, Trump does not have a heart and I don’t speak for God.

Going forward to August ‘12, and we have a nominee, be it The Donald or Palin or Romney, any one of them would have to select a running mate with significant experience in Washington. One person on the ticket has to know how Washington works or the Administration would be hamstrung from Day One.

Think back on every ticket for the past 30+ years. Any candidate who’d served as a state’s governor chose a DC “insider.” Reagan chose GHWB who’d operated in DC as Congressman, in the Foreign Service, RNC Chair and CIA Director; Carter chose Mondale; Clinton chose Gore; Obama selected Biden.

Nobody knows better than West: the kind of institutional knowledge isn’t gathered in 2 years. Proof of the pudding is none other than Barack Heussein Obama.

Pain is dead on arrival. Why would he pick some who is disliked by a vast number of Americans? Surely there are others with less baggage and more experience.

Heard it all before.

Not impressed and won’t be fooled.
