Nothing is too stupid for the Republican establishment to do. Some things are too smart or too wise, but nothing is too stupid.

Yes, and McDonnell, like Christie, is just another RINO supporter of Mittens.

If the convention is brokered, you can COUNT on the Establishment GOP doing it to prevent a conservative getting nominated. They feel that only a RINO is capable of winning nationally.

As for Krud Low, he is just an economics guy. Social issues and constitutional issues mean nothing to him.

To me this doesn’t sound bad at all. I honestly don’t think Mitt or Newt can win, and after another week of nonstop Santorum-eats-babies-and-kicks-dogs stories from the media, I would strongly doubt he could win either.

Here you go, the perfect RINO brokered convention choices guaranteed to win: Lindsay Graham and Olympia Snowe. Yeah, that's it! We still don't know which one is on top, though.

Intrade has a fairly exhaustive list of 52 individuals, though “other” at 0.4% still outpolls the bulk of the list.

Of those on the list, I like Clarence Thomas the best. I also think that the thousand to one odds on him are too optimistic.

Larry Kudlow doesn’t have a clue of what’s going to happen.

WTF has McDonnell done? He has been Gov for like 30 seconds. Sheesh.

McDonnell ended up a disappointment and is now, sadly, a Willardbot. Christie is a no-go from the get-go. He is willfully blind on illegals and little better on the Mohammadan issue.

Interesting list.

I might make a thread about it if I can.

In that case, Boehner will become House Minority leader again, and we will be stuck with Botox Pelosi again.

These RNC idiots won’t admit to Romney’s defeat. If Santorum or Newt wins outright then they have every right to be nominated. Bloody fight ahead to stop the elites from stripping Santorum or Newt the nomination then the party will be suicidal.

No kidding. Newt could regurgitate Santorum’s positions in a drunken stupor.

I believe VA governors are 1-term limit only. Usually they run for US Senate seat afterward (like this year, where 2 ex govs are against each other)
