Watch out for Daniels because the establishment is looking to him to save the Rockefeller wing Republicans if/when Myth Romney flames out.
Social issues are a matter of character and are most definitely not off the table.
Not to mention he’s bald and about 5 foot 5.
Goodbye!
Dead is an understatement.
They want to deflect and dilute the Tea Party movement just as much as the left does.
I think Romney is already done. He will have a big problem shaking that whole Romneycare thingy.
Right.
Daniels is the Rockefeller-Bush-Gerald Ford wing’s backup RINO.
Why bother? Over half the SoCons vote Democrat anyway.
A nation’s greatness and soundness are directly tied to its goodness in the sight of God.
Daniels still denying a Congressional district in the state a special election?
These RINO's think that taxes and deficits are the only issues that compel voters to support them. NOT!
Yeah, this guy is a mealy-mouthed weasel. No thanks. We have had enough of those.
How can someone say they are pro-life but then see it as a secondary issue? People who are pro-life believe they are fighting murder. How can murder be set aside? People who believe that a fetus is not a baby are ridiculous, but they are not nearly as creepy as those who claim to be pro-life but say it would not affect how they vote or govern. “Yeah, I know it’s infanticide, but we shouldn’t make a big deal out of it.”
Whom should the republican presidential nominee be, in 2012? I think that Mike Huckabee, Dirk Kempthorne, and Haley Barbour will run.
At least he wouldnt be nominating Harriet Meiers to the Supreme Court.
Who the heck is Dirk Kempthorne?
Exactly what conservative social issue is on the advance? Seems like people are just trying to sandbag the levies at the moment. Homosexual marriage is a CHANGE to 4000 years of history. Trying to hold onto what’s left isn’t exactly in your face aggression.
No Daniels will probably put another Souter or John Paul Stevens on the Court, one of those justices who won’t get “distracted” by social issues.
Its going to take some big ones to put the wheels back on the USA and getting stuck on the social issues will NOT do it this time around.
What good is character if you have no country left?
I don't know if Daniels is the guy. Does not really matter.
Unless we FIX the financial problems we have nothing.
If you are a “social issues” voter, you better learn what really matters for the here and now.
Hint:
It's not abortion or same sex marriage.
I think he would make a great budget director or some such in the Sarah Palin administration....
Whoever wins. I have no clue at this point who that may be. I liked Fred Thompson last time out, that shows how much I know.
