Which is why he'll never get elected. So it's Romney or Pitbull in 2012? Well, really Pitbull I guess, because no one in the South is going to vote for a Mormon either.
I don't care about his looks -- his condescending Fred Rogers delivery in that Republican response speech has made his candidacy stillborn. If he and Palin are the best they got, it looks like four more years of Obama.

I'm about as excited with the Republicans chances in '12 as I will be with the Spurs chances when Duncan retires. Strictly from winning the election standpoint Republicans best bet will be if Obama just keeps being Obama and we have hyperinflation in 4 years....of course by then the country will be well and truly ed and it probably won't matter which party is in power.
Uhm.. what's the point of this?
Do you have so much rage that it makes you feel better to belittle someone?
I mean, really, that's honestly unhinged. You should check your heart rate.
You should check your sarcasm detector.
Yes, and I own three businesses and 12 porsches.
I can't. Conservatives have broken it. :p
Welcome to the forum, Mr. Vice President.
the whole irony of this situation is that if Obama fails so does the country. If the bailouts etc don't work we are ed.
I don't understand why partisanship comes before country for these idiotic ers.
Well, there are those of us who believe that if Obama succeeds, America fails.
It's not the bailouts...I opposed them when Bush was president.
It's the socialist agenda and Obama's apparent incomprehension of what a 12 Trillion dollar debt, to achieve that agenda, will do to this country. , don't even mention how far it will carry us from our founding principles of individual liberty.
A President's success or failure doesn't necessarily correlate to a nation's success or failure.
Did you do it publicly?
You apparently have no idea what a conservative is. This last republican congress and president were not conservatives!
Agreed. I would say president Obama will succeed if the policies he wants to implement fail to take place!
I believe I did. Although, I don't do much public speaking...anymore.
Are people serious about this? I mean, what's exactly the point of having an opposition if not trying to prevent the ruling party to impose their wills and measures? And, I mean, if Obama supports a bill supporting the building of a nuclear waste deposit in the Yosemite Park, wouldn't people want him to fail? Countries were everybody wants the government to succeed and implement their policies are called "totalitarian regimes".
Jindal is absolutely right (as is Rush Limbaugh). Pretty amazing that the democrats spend the last 8 years accusing others of falsely questioning their patriotism and now engage in this kind of nonsense. Hypocrisy at its best.
well america has voted for a color president,
now the ppl who have failed in the election want him to fail....
hey this happens everywhere around the world, the opposition will usually stir negative for bad publicity...hence when they were in govt they didnt do all.
Hmm. You might be right about Romney. And some conservatives are not convinced of his bona fides either -- is he really a conservative? That will have to be worked out by then. Palin and Jindal are two rising stars in the GOP and have alot to offer. Jindal has the intellectual chops to go up against the Pres., and unlike Obama, has an actual record of executive or legislative achievement, and doesn't need a teleprompter to speak to his wife. Palin, too, is smarter than the media portrays her, and is, like most Americans, rightly skeptical of these great big solutions that govt always tries on us. And she is about the farthest thing from a Beltway insider as we're likely to see. I like her -- she is exactly what the American political landscape needs.
Any of them will have to overcome (1) a hostile media, and (2) the Obama campaign. Often, these are one and the same. Obama ran a simply brilliant campaign last year, told the people what they wanted to hear, let an inferior candidate beat himself, and focused on peripheral things that don't really matter that much (his demeanor, his race, his youth, his speaking ability, etc.). And he raised tons of $$. I expect Team Obama to be formidable in 2012 as well.
Jindal?
Palin?
That's seriously all you got?
Dark days for board Republicans.
You seem to be absent after Obama was elected any reason why?
Are you tone deaf to sarcasm?Are you so narrow minded? This is the image many europeans have of much americans, and that image is only increasing because of people like you.
Pinochet?lol
And do you think you are a 'real' american?
The American political landscape needs somebody even more incurious about the world than George W. Bush was? Seriously?
"Smarter than the media portrays her?" That's funny, I don't remember history playing out that way. I remember members of the media asking her simple, straightforward questions that most people with a college education could answer, and then looking astonished when she couldn't answer them. I remember asking similar questions of people who don't give a flip about politics, economics, or anything else that goes on in the world outside of their narrow circle, and getting better answers than Governor Palin could give. Maybe she's witty and clever and has good political instincts or whatever, but the only way she could know any less about the issues that a President has to deal with would be if she were a plant, or a sponge, or some kind of inanimate object.
When and why did lack of salient knowledge about anything become a prerequisite to a viable Republican candidacy? It's as though in the highly unlikely course of events that Gov. Palin were to spend the next few years educating herself on the issues, it would actually hurt her chances.
Once upon a time I thought that conservatism was about a set of principles such as individual liberty, empowering families, smaller government, lower taxes, pay-as-you-go, that were applied to real-world problems. Now it seems that the state of the Republican Party is that it, and the people to whom it appeals, have no answers in the real world, so they construct a make-believe reality in which their ideology makes sense. So the more out-of-touch a potential candidate is with objective reality, the better. Cue Sarah Palin.
We've got a President who thinks that the definition of fiscal responsibility is to tell the American people up front about his plans to bankrupt the country, and the Republican response is to bat their eyes at somebody who probably thinks that a credit default swap is when you start using the MasterCard instead of the Visa.
There is no hope. Just blow up the country and let the wars begin.
It's like
hi. My name is Bobby. But it really isn't.
Now, now, don't forget Rush..
