PALIN IS IN!!!

I was starting to think that Sarah would sit it out, but she decided to toss her hat in the ring!  I think all the other big names that have been dropping out clinched it for her.  Once she saw how open the field was, she couldn't resist. 

I hope she does well.  I think now that there is so much open space in the field, she will be the first of a sort of second wave of candidates that decide to take a chance.  I could see Huntsman joining, as well as Guiliani, and maybe Christie. 

Definitely shaping up for a lot of fun this winter and next summer!!!

The Big Zero!!

Obama's budget was voted on today in the Senate, and it failed by a whopping 0 to 97 vote!!!  It is so unpopular, and downright insane that even the most socialistic members of the Democrat party couldn't be caught supporting it in public!!

At least Toomey and Ryans' bills got 42 and 40 votes respectively.  These are actual serious proposals that could start the long process of getting our government back under control.  They are strategies to stop this insane government spending that has been ruining our economy, and to put it in check permanently.

Daniels Out!!

This week we have had Mitch Daniels, Mike Huckabee, and The Donald bow out.  Couple that with Palin not getting in, and Newt's less then spectacular performance, and it looks like everything is lining up for Pawlenty to get the nod!!

I have actually met Tim a few times and I think he is a good man, and an honest leader.  He is definitely less then overwhelming, but thoughtful, and fair.  He would definitely be a good candidate to offer as a competent, quiet alternative, so that all the lights focus on Obama, and his incompetence. 

I think the primaries are lining up to be Tim's to lose.  It should be fun, and there will be a lot of less then serious candidates that make big waves, but Tim seems to hold the reins.
