Romney's got the numbers but is a GOP surprise coming? (Thinks Jeb or Mitch will be 2012's Palin)

However, history suggests that a new candidate-- whether it be Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, or Mitch Daniels -- could well galvanize a party that has become increasingly dispirited and divided.

Wow. The GOP is on a suicide run!! RINO-RINO

I dont care who Bush is. We do not have monarchy’s in this country and they are certainly trying to set one up. Just on principle I say NO.

I hate Mittens so bad. He is on tv talking right now. I can see right through this twerp.

He is so painfully empty. Words, no ideas, no difference from Obama, no major themes mentioned.

Christie is great for NJ- STAY THERE.

Jeb- NO THANKS

Mitch? Who?!

Romney can pick whoever he wants for his running mate, and it’s not going to make any difference (the same is true if Santorum becomes the candidate - his running mate will be of no importance). Having an unpopular Presidential candidate cannot be compensated for by picking a more attractive VP. We all voted for VP the last time around, and we’re not going to do it again.

I hope they have a deadlocked convention and come up with somebody totally different. I still think Gingrich would be the best candidate - he’s the only one who offers any significant difference from Obama and the Dem program, and he’s the only one who really gets Obama’s goat - but I think the GOP E has basically crushed him. However, one never knows...he has come back from the dead before.

Your problem is Jeb's wife is a Mexican. Chris is a blimp ready for a full coronary blowout. And Mitch is a midget whose wife doesn't want him to run.

Of the three Mitch is probably the most knowledgeable one of the three when it comes to federal government but again, I don't think his wife wants to move to the DC area again. Just no way.

The blimp people had their chance with Taft. The Mexicans are in line behind the Italians and Poles in the long term race for the top. They have to learn their place (like the Italians and Poles eh).

Looks like I am staying home on election day.

No, I will go and vote the down ticket.

Mitch is busy giving Indiana income tax payers a REFUND from the state's surplus!

Mitch who?

Seriously, nobody is doing that these days but Indiana under Mitch Daniels.

I do not care who Romney picks as VP, I will not vote for him.
He is no different than BHO.

Never know when a tragedy might occur. He could open his vault tomorrow and be crushed by an avalanche of Chinese money. It ain’t done til it’s over

Right, because nominating a liberal and tacking on a conservative worked so well against Barack Obama in 2008.

Open your damn eyes, you establishment nitwits! Trying the same thing over and over again and expecting different results is the definition of insanity.

You know, peaceful secession sounds really nice right about now.

Yeah I got a comment. Mitt RomneyCare inspires NOTHING. No one. Listen to those who keep trying to cram this guy down our throats. Do they say he’s the best man for the job? NO. Do they point to some kind of Massachusetts Miracle Economic Boom to show he’s really the kind of leader we need? NO. Their selling point of him is - he can’t be portrayed as “crazy” (meaning, True Conservative) by the MSM. That’s it - that’s the justification of their support for this guy. He made $$ on the Olympics because he got funding form the government; RomneyCare only managed to survive because of Federal $$ infused into Massachusetts. Mitt RomneyCare is worse than Dole or McCain in that at least those guys won primaries outright.

Mitt RomneyCare’s wins in the largest primaries up to now have been marked by two indisputable facts: he’s had to come from behind in Iowa, Ohio, Florida and Michigan (sometimes from FAR behind); and he’s only managed to do so by scorching the earth with a barrage of negative ads to destroy his opponents. His ads are NOT about promoting his accomplishments (how does a Flip Flopper sell himself as competent??)That destruction is obliterating turnout. Mitt RomenyCare will be the GOP nominee virtually no Conservative voters want. I won’t vote for him.

Isn't this pathetic. We will probably wind up with Romnesty, a devout, dyed in the wool democrat at best. I can't stand him or anything he stands for: homosexuality, abortion, high taxes, mandatory health care, etc.

What the hell has happened?

I wouldn't be surprised if, when Romnesty takes the GOP to the cleaners, that the idiot in our White House doesn't give him a cabinet position. I smell a rat, a Romney rat . . . something just plain stinks to think that we are going to put a democrat up against a democrat and all of us are going to go panting to the ballot box to vote for Mittens. Something just ain't right.

None mentioned will do a damn thing to excite anyone. I am sure the establishment guys really don’t care what we think anyway.

Fat boy, short boy, boosh boy

Whoever.
