    Any preference to a potential BROKERED GOP candidate. None of the three legitimate candidates really seems to be setting the electorate on fire. Marco Rubio/Paul Ryan/Bobby Jindal/Chris Christie/Paul Ryan/Sarah Palin/The Donald just to name a few I've seen 'thrown at the wall'. There are a couple on that list that are more appealing then the three beating on each other instead of where they should be concentrating their efforts, the incumbent.

    I was waiting to see what you'd get on this one, but apparently Jonah Goldberg was reading your mind an penned this which seems generally reasonable: Mr. Right Eludes the GOP - Jonah Goldberg - National Review Online

    I would add, as far as your list of wishful candidates, plus including Mitch Daniels, each of these guys has opted out for whatever their reasons are. If they've made an expression of why they'll not run I don't know if we're getting the real or full reason(s). I suspect in each of their cases there's the family element. Daniel's wife was pretty clear on this, and probably the others feel the same. They don't want the family drug through the mud that they know will happen. Look at what was done to Herman Cain (I'm not saying he was the right guy, the best candidate, the best able, just that he was a viable candidate and a good example of what would happen). He was subjected to a vicious form of character assassination without any proof...........pure innuendo formed to look plausible.............no proof. Eventually it was clear that his wife pulled the plug for him..............he valued his wife/family/home, over the power of the Presidency. Contrast that with all the pre election stories about Hound Dog Bill and a long string of affairs. Sit on the couch with his equally ambitious wife for the 60 Minutes cameras and look a bit sheepish while saying "Yeah, we've had our problems." And the media folk get in line and chant "Okay...................never mind!". Move forward to 2008 and good ol' Johnny Edwards. How many of those inquisitive news types do you suppose could have dug up the dirt about his affair WHILE he's pretending to care about his wife's cancer treatment. But no, not a word until the folks at, of all places, The Enquirer, push the story to the front. Again, the "unbiased" media chanted "Never mind.....", maybe they should be known as the Emily chorus. Same for Bill Richardson in '08. That one didn't come out until recently because of a Grand Jury investigation that doesn't look good for him. Again, real journalists, if interested, could have presented the story. Instead....yup, "Never mind.....". But Cain? They couldn't stop spreading the rumors, no facts, rumors, for weeks. You'd think in that amount of time, if they'd had proof, it would have come out.

    Is it any wonder that good family people are reluctant to subject themselves to that sort of hypocracy and venomous treatment? With the exception of Gingrich it APPEARS the others left in the process today might not get that treatment. But we likely won't know untile the last couple weeks when there's almost always some unsubstantiated accusation intended to disrupt the election when there's little to no time to counteract it.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Bob - it could get real interesting. Karl Rove states emphatically that there wont be a 'brokered' candidate as the delegates will cast their votes as required and the leader of the pack and the holsder of the committed votes will be the candidate. As far as Herman Cain - I sure don't have all of the facts on this but in comparison to Bill Clinton, he's a saint. Amazing how the liberal press overlooked Clinton's 'indiscretions' and even Monica to the point he is now one of the Nation's elder statesmen.

    That article - it about says what I feel.

    Unfortunately it takes having to experience the wages you earn through blood sweat and tears, being given to someone who'd rather spend two months "occupying" someplace, and smoking pot with their buddies, until you realize "hey wait a minute, what the @#$%^# is going on. This slub isn't working, has no intention of working, but is getting everything paid for by the rest of us struggling and working, getting bleed to death with taxes on everything, to pay for them to sit and complain and ask for more, more, and more, while doing less, less, and less!
    It reminds me of two separate stories, one a joke, the other a true social experiment.
    #1 A young girl, wearing a vote for Obama button, says to her mom that if she was President of the USA, she she would end homelessness, make sure everybody had food and free health care. A man hearing this says you don't have to wait until you grow up, if you want to help the unemployed, homeless and hungry, you can do it today. Come over to my house and rake up my lawn, weed my garden, and mow the grass. I'll pay you thirtyfive dollars. When your done, we can go down to the suppermarket and you can give the homeless folks there your money for food and shelter. The little girl looks at the man and says, why should I do that, why don't you get the homeless guy to do the work and give him the money. The old man says, "welcome to the Republican Party!"

    Steve, the problem is when people hear these "stories" they don't try to understand the realities, but instead say that "It's just a story, and probably not true." Doesn't seem to matter how much evidence you produce, either.

    YES !!!

    And yes, I did understand what your inference was about. It just tickled an ongoing in-home discussion which WILL NOT be part of this site, at least by me
