Who Will The Republicans Look to in 2012

Mitt might be back. If Ryan or Pence win a statewide race in 2010, in Wisconsin or Indiana respectively, look for them to be in the hunt. Maybe Pawlenty. Huckabee will be around. Jindal perhaps.

Nothing about Thune suggests to me that  he is a bright enough bulb to make it. But maybe I have missed something.

It is interesting that Huntsman supported McCain over Romney. That took some guts.

He's not terribly bright at all.  But that's been a plus for some candidates in the past...

God, I need a drink. Depress me, and then depress me some more!

I want to hear more from Pence and Ryan, and some really smart guys JS. I am tired of drones! Olympia Snowe is nice, but her problem is that she is even more liberal than I am (aka totally un-nominatable) , and I don't think she is a genius. Lugar is a fossil, and hardly an articulate speaker really, Gregg almost there in the fossil camp  (but I love the man), and the rest of your list are hardly mental giants. Crist is pleasant enough, but I can tell he won't live past about 65.

I'm going to be different and say Dino Rossi. Well, if he manages to beat Gregoire that is. If not then forget about him.

Is Dino a first tier brain? Does he have the right stuff for the major leagues?  Just asking.

The truncated Detroit skyline.

It is rather pathetic for a metro area of 4 million people or whatever it is. Detroit never got a white collar economy going thanks to Henry Ford, but that is another story. Time to move on to your 354th screen name BRTD, or whatever the number is. This particular dog of yours won't hunt!

Why don't switch your registration, and run Brittain33? The GOP needs some rather bold moves.
