Best face for GOP

I used to think Palin was a breath of fresh air and maybe some sort of hope for the Republican party but the more she parades around in front of cameras and tends to act more like some sort of celebrity the more I lose confidence in her. But Snowe is not the answer either, and never will be.

"joe, put down the crack pipe"..."clown-in-chief's"..."The boy king"..."a Socialist regime"..."vacuous hag RINO"

Mr. Ziehm, you need look no further than this blog for evidence to support your point.

Olympia is a wonderful Senator and one of the nicest people you would ever want to meet. Obviously Mainers like her voting record because she wins by historic margins. But the rest of the country's Republicans believe her to be too liberal for their taste, so
she would have an uphill battle to secure the GOP nomination.

If I had to pick the perfect nominee, I would choose General David Petraeus. With the world becoming more dangerous by the week, we need another Eisenhower in the White House. Obama is putting our nation in danger from a military and economic position. General Petraeus is the right man for the times.

When only about 23% or 24% are willing to call themselves republicans, there is a problem. I, for one, don't think all republicans are as bat s**t insane as the few setting the planet wingnuttia agenda and parading around in the national media. There must be some common ground, but when the best they can come up with is "oh noes! socialism!" and teabagging, the road back to the mainstream is going to be a long, steep, and never ending one.

Hi Lil just working on a few college projects. I think Gil's proving everyday what's wrong with my party. The crack pipe remark simply shows that Gil is still a bully and still wants to take away credit from anyone.

There must be some level headed, reasonable republicans out there somewhere. Will one please step forward?

Sarah Palin gets my vote for the head of the Republican ticket. Just think...years of wonderful fun fodder for late night telly! The best comedy writers can't make up better material. You goooooooo girl!!

"The White House can drive its inhabitants loopy. So at least Sarah Palin is ahead of the curve on that one.

“We need those who will respect our Constitution,” said Palin, who swore on the Bible to uphold the Constitution. She said she can’t fulfill that silly old oath of office in the usual way because she’s not “wired to operate under the same old politics as usual.”

Naturally, she dragged the troops in, saying that her trip to see wounded soldiers overseas “fortified” her decision to give up because “they don’t give up.” [NY Times 7/5]

President Palin...no laugh track needed!

joe, put down the crack pipe. Snowe is everything that is wrong with the GOP today. She proved it beyond a shadow of a doubt when she voted for the clown-in-chief's $800 billion omnibus spending/pork bill. She proves it every time she backs the dems in her bid to placate them by going against her own party. She needs to go, and a real Conservative needs to step up. The boy king is well on his way to bankrupting this country along with nationalizing all of our major corporation in his bid for a Socialist regime. To have one of the few who could actually stand in his way turn against her party at a desperate time of need shows her to be the vacuous hag RINO that has no place in the Conservative party. To think she is the face of the party is beyond stupid, it's just plain ignorant.
