why is this guy automatically going to be next?
TREY GOWDY!!!!
Gowdy and Gohmert are right up there for me; also, give us a Matt Salmon, or better yet, Trent Franks (a couple of AZ boys whom I would favor).
Gowdy can be a bit of a problem just by the way he looks, sorta hostile (fine with me, but maybe a problem with the public at large).
Gohmert looks like your friendly old uncle, so maybe that’s better; and his conservative cred is impeccable.
Salmon is 100% conservative, and a fellow Arizonan; a very presentable face, with both serious and affable guises.
Franks would be my favorite of all; but maybe he, like Gowdy, might have trouble with his all-business, cleft-lip visage (although to me, it’s a tough-guy look, which I would find admirable).
Anybody else have local faves?
I posted this on another thread earlier, but this one seems more on point.
Just for conversation sake, there are 15 Republican Representatives with a 100% Conservative rating by ACU for 2013. And, at least one of them retired (Bachmann). I’m not saying a 100% rating is required or even desired, but it is a good place to start the conversation. There are many in the 95-100 range.

Gowdy gets a 76% score (B) on immigration issues with NumbresUSA.
Plus he too often is the “much wind and thunder, little rain” kind of guy.
We can do better.
