You do have a point.
not just the future of the Republican Party, but the aspirations of the electorate for the future of the United States. Regardless of their desires, Romney and Bush represent the past: the past of their own track records, and the past of the Republican Party"... Expresses my thoughts. I find the "Country Club Republicans" the biggest voter turnoff known to science.
Mike Pence is governor of Indiana, with 6.5 million people.
Please try making sure of your facts before posting.
A solicitor general is not an administrative position, with departments of health, highways, education... all bureaucracies full of Democrats. Pence took over a State in trouble and turned it into a success.
The people in the Red areas want their country back. They want Cruz/Palin.
If that doesn't happen, we'll storm the Republican National Convention.
There’s no doubt ‘TeH StUpIdZ” is a huge factor. But I have an increasingly hard time accepting after the past 3 elections that there’s this much stupid on FR. DU yes, but not FR. The logical conclusion is that either conservatives are made op of a disproportionate number of politically illiterate fools, or they are massively compromised and too scared to admit the truth to themselves.
Like reading Dr. Suess in the Senate? There was plenty of other material for Cruz to read before giving his enemies ammunition like that.
The reason you're not hearing a word about Pence in the media is that he's nobody's buffoon.
I wasn’t talking about Mike Pence.
I was talking about Wyoming our least populous state whose governor is still a governor.
Massively compromised. Of course, a compromised conservative is no longer a conservative.
I was giving you credit for an honest mistake instead of trying to push a straw-man on me. I thought you knew better.
Ain’t voting for Romney. PERIOD! Ain’t voting for no mo Bushes. DOUBLE PERIOD!!!!!! If they are not true conservatives and have values that I can connect too, I skip them and move on. I have been doing a LOT of jumping over them and moving on these days.
Nope. You suggested in your #25 that Cruz has no admin experience. My #28 was about the notion that governors are automatically better candidates than senators because of admin experience.
So I brought up the small state of Wyoming.
Yeah. Santorum is probably getting ready to have a book released or something....
I agree. I should have worded that a lot better. I meant that conservatism itself and FR was massively compromised. a full 2 years out and we have post after post with Freepers telling us that Mitt is viable ‘if he runs as a conservative’.
Hello? Mitt will run as a transvestite in Stripper heels if thats what he’s told to do. And ‘Conservatives’ are supposed to believe that Capt. About-Face is OK because ‘he says’ something?
And the other ‘frontrunner’ has his excusemakers with the same tired and losing ‘no matter what’ meme.
All one can really think is “Mods are asleep...Post PONIRS!!!
PONIES!!
“Hello? Mitt will run as a transvestite in Stripper heels if thats what hes told to do. “
Fortunately for Mitt, it never came to that. Yes, he would have worn the heels. I despise Mitt, so let him humiliate himself for a couple months : )
That and the speaking tour.

That site says he gets from 10-20 grand per event.
Pence is a good candidate. But reading Dr. Seuss is reason not to vote for the man? He read many things for many hours. If that disqualifies him then most of the gop field is disqualified with some of the stunts far more outrageous than reading Dr. Seuss and most of these utterances by the rest of the gop herd were made as serious policy statements!
“Unenthused”, is not the word I’d use.
Nice map. You can also color both of those grey districts in Louisiana red as a result of the December 6th run-off.
