These Are Not the Candidates You are Looking For...

Yes that is a Star Wars reference.  Yes I mean the Jedi Mind Trick. And yes, I'm talking about the people whose names always top the list in national polls about GOP Candidates.  I will now list the candidates who should drop out so that their money can be used to elect the real nominee:

  1. Newt Gingrich  has too much baggage.  No Tea Party people will accept him.  His time is done.
  2. Gary Johnson because his manner will be perceived as weak, and his libertarian views are too purist for cultural conservatives.
  3.  Ron Paul is too isolationist in his foreign policy to be taken seriously by many mainstream conservatives.  He has more of a chance than the previous two.
  4. Tim Pawlenty, yawn... (Update:  Pawlenty on Cavuto just scolded those who want an entertainer in chief.  He has experience, he's unfolding plans...)
  5. Mitt Romney, not only has Romney-care, but he was also governor when Boston's Catholic Charities closed their adoption program rather than provide children to homosexual couples and individuals.  He presided over the fiscal and moral funeral of Massachusetts, even though he may not have caused the death.  I have a hard time believing any serious conservative would even consider him.
  6. Michele Bachmann is needed in the House.  She could be Speaker some day.
  7. Rudy Giuliani has no cultural conservative chops.  After Wiener, we should not consider anyone who can't speak with some moral sense if not authority.
  8. Lindsey Graham is the definition of a RINO.
  9. Sarah Palin should raise funds for candidates, but not be one herself.  I don't think she really wants it.  But keeping her name out there is good for the kind of work she's good at.  She keeps the others honest,  and shows the absurdity of liberal feminists.  
Now for the candidates we should be looking for in no particular order.:

  • Rick Santorum.  
  • Herman Cain
  • Allen West
  • Paul Ryan
  • Rick Perry
  • John Bolton
And once the field is set, maybe the candidates should agree to serve in the cabinet of the nominee  in whatever capacity is his/her forte. 

Could we work together to show libs how it's done?  The right way?

Check out Thaddeus McCotter's interview on "The World Over" (it starts about 11 minutes in).

He's said to be considering a run and I think you'll want to add him to the list.

Michele Bachmann? Good Lord!

The woman is a shameless demagogue who simply disregards the truth whenever it's convenient.

I've always thought that personal integrity is the foundation of conservatism. It's absolutely mandatory in a candidate.

Finally, she's lazy. She had no significant legislation as a Minnesota state senator, and she has none in the House.

How do I know?

I live in her district.

Ironic that beneath this post is an ad for Obama 2012. Google ads are terrible, aren't they?
