The evangelical base will never allow a nude model, who is pro choice, and pro gay marriage to run for the executive branch.

If Palin runs as the Republican nominee, it'll be a gift wrapped 4 more years for the Obama administration.

Don't be riduculous. A big part of the problem with Obama is his lack of experience. Give Brown a few years to get some national experience, then we'll talk.

I rarely agree with Hillary Clinton but she was dead-on when she said the Presidency is no place for on-the-job training.

Then why did we vote Bush into office, he had no real experience?
Does not matter who runs on the GOP ticket if Palin is on the ballet they will lose to the Demos. The Repubs better come up with a better choice than a talking head and a liberal Repub if they expect to win the Whitehouse.

I'm not a huge fan of Bush, but he did have business experience in the oil industry, the baseball team and more importantly, two terms of executive experience as Governor of Texas.

That's still more executive experience than Obama.

And, you prove my point. We need someone with extensive experience in business and elected positions. Neither Palin or Scott Brown have the years and maturity to deal with the job.

I say start the campain now. It does not matter apparently no one wants what they wanted a year ago. Palin/Brown give the TPs what they want but someday we will not know it but one or more of them will be in a doctors office wondering how they are going to pay for treatment for them or thier family since they just got dropped by the ins company. The good news ins fatcats can take a trip to enjoy the good life I know giving as much money as you can to ins companies thrills all of the GOP

LOL, Have you looked into his "oil" past?

The oil companies he ran, went bankrupt. He had to get loans from Saudi families that were friends of his father to keep them afloat.

Yeah, yeah, I know. But the people of Texas and the United States apparently thought it was insignificant. Both elected him for two full terms.

So, let's learn . . . and vote in people with successful experience in business and national government. Time in Congress is important to learn the national security issues.

Neither seem like Goldwater conservatives, which I would prefer. To be honest, I can't think of any conservatives that I would be excited to vote for at this point. Ron Paul is the closest from a policy standpoint, but unfortunately he's bat **** crazy.

The left don't care about experiance. The proof is in the white house.
