I don't really see it, I have to say. Legolas Send a noteboard - 02/10/2012 07:49:29 PM
Most of the people on that list are rather new on the highest stage, and have yet to prove that they can be more than a flavour of the week. Those with more substantial track records like Ryan or Christie still have obvious downsides as well.

I don't see why the people on that list are somehow more "A-list" than the people who ran in the Republican primary this year, except of course in a post hoc way, they didn't run and so didn't gain the stigma of having lost, nor did they have to run a presidential campaign with all the opportunities for looking like a fool that that creates.

Me, too, because they suggest he feels no guilt over outsourcing US jobs to slaves when he ran Bain. Joel - 01/10/2012 04:38:49 AM 374 Views
It isn't luck. nossy - 30/09/2012 06:03:51 PM 423 Views
Some would say lack of interest is luck, but the presidency remains the highest political job. Joel - 01/10/2012 05:14:04 AM 556 Views
I didn't read all of that either. nossy - 01/10/2012 01:57:16 PM 332 Views
2012 may be less luck, yeah, though I am not sure whom the GOP had to run. Joel - 01/10/2012 08:24:06 PM 524 Views
Ahahahahaha you think Jindal is charismatic. My sides. Ghavrel - 01/10/2012 11:42:03 PM 387 Views
No one in the GOP really seriously considers Jindal. Tom - 02/10/2012 12:16:40 AM 339 Views
Yeah, he keeps being mentioned by people, but I don't have any idea why. *NM* Ghavrel - 02/10/2012 02:04:05 AM 168 Views

Could people please stop saying, "Jeb Bush." Joel - 04/10/2012 12:41:53 AM 382 Views
Given your steadfast refusal to be corrected on basic issues of grammar, this is an amusing post. *NM* Ghavrel - 04/10/2012 03:04:46 AM 166 Views
Hush, I am busy watching the president get the snot kicked out of him. Joel - 04/10/2012 03:25:10 AM 352 Views
That comma should have been a semicolon. Ghavrel - 04/10/2012 05:15:07 AM 368 Views
I was in a hurry. Joel - 04/10/2012 03:05:39 PM 501 Views
I suppose you could claim that. Sounds like "reasons" to me. nossy - 02/10/2012 04:04:55 PM 364 Views
