Isn't Crist gay? That may be too much to overcome.

I haven't seen "Outrage" yet but from what I've heard it's about as likely to effect the way Republicans vote as a Michael Moore movie is.

Republicans have two choices. Go back to the basic conversative nature (Romney or Huckabee) or try to counter Obama's "change" (Jindal or Steele). Personally i like Jindal.

I like Ron Paul but he will be old and people will use that against him. Huckabee is my second favorite. People really need to give up on Romney. His only strength is in business and he didn't see this recession coming.

No he's not. He's married to a woman. And Crist is out against gay marriage (and gay adoption, which is just plain wrong)

I give him two thumbs up on those positions

I think if you ask Democrats who their favourite Republican was, it would be a unanimous.....Sarah Palin.
She did more to get Obama into the White House than any other person.
