I have said numerous times that I was hoping that a Democrat would challenge President Obama for my party's nomination. Since no one has stepped up, I will have to hope that the Republicans nominate a candidate to my liking. If that doesn't happen, I will just not cast a vote for president in 2012.

Cut Congresses pay and staff and expense accounts in half --- this is an AWESOME idea. Perry has a lot of extremely good ideas.
“And yet our opponents tell us not to interfere with abortion. They tell us not to impose our morality on those who wish to allow or participate in the taking of the life of infants before birth. Yet no one calls it imposing morality to prohibit the taking of life after a child is born. We’re told about a woman’s right to control her own body. But doesn’t the unborn child have a higher right, and that is to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?” – Ronald Reagan

Rick Perry on Defeating Obama: Perry Compares Beating Obama to Defeating the Nazis
Rick Perry compared the GOP's efforts to defeat President Obama "to one of the deadliest battles of the D-Day landings in Normandy in 1944," NBC News reports. Said Perry: "This election is about stopping a president of the United States and his administration that is abusing the Constitution of this country, that is putting America on a track to bankruptcy. It is a powerful moment in Americans' history, and you are on the front lines. This is Concord. This is Omaha Beach. This is going up the hill realizing that the battle is worth winning." (He really is nuts huh?)
Now Mike Huckabee on Republicans Campaigning against Obama:
“One of the reasons that I was so frustrated and decided not to get in the race was because it appears to me that many of the Republicans are more interested in just defeating Barack Obama than they are in rebuilding America. Well, defeating somebody without a plan to really resolve problems, to me, is a worthless endeavor. We’ve got 15, 16 million people that don’t have jobs that would like to have them. Let’s talk about that, not: ’Let’s spend our time talking about what’s wrong with one of the candidates we’re trying to defeat,’ and that’s unfortunately been the focus of this primary.”

A newspaper is a device for making the ignorant more ignorant and the crazy crazier. ~ H.L. Mencken Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard. ~ H. L. Mencken The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary. ~H. L. Mencken
