Anti-Mormon

What's wrong with you? WHERE is Romney on your list, you rabid anti-Mormonite? What, our holy underwear not good enough for you? Our churches not old enough for you? Tisk, tisk. He's on the VERY short list of possibilities, and its well known that he is being "vetted" as we speak. There's really only 3 choices (in my opinion), and I'll rank them in order of most likely to be tapped:

1.) Mitt Romney.
As the economy over takes all other issues on the minds of voters - every poll I see seems to indicate that, including overtaking Iraq in importance - Romney's case is being made for him. He is seen in terms of economic mastery the way MAC is on national security. It's the perfect one-two punch in my estimation.

2.) Crist.
He delivers Florida on a silver platter. Meaning all MAC has to do is add Ohio and its "President-elect McCain."

3.) Sarah Palin.
A woman invigorates the McCain candidacy and demands media attention in a away no other candidate does. Plus you chip off a few disgruntled Hillary supporters, and maybe some South West states leaning blue.

Don't get me wrong, Barbour is undoubtedly more in sync with my politics and that of the GOP base, but in practical application, these are the three, and only three choices. My preference would have been Bobby Jindal. As you might know I've been following this guy for years, since he was running for governor the first time, before he was even a congressman. He is not only down the line conservative on each and every issue - he's a literal genius. And articulate to the point of devastating in any argument ... how nice would that be to have after the last 8 years? ...*sigh*
