		<description>It is truly sad that Pres Bush has so tarnished the Bush name,for the best candidate by far would be Jeb Bush.

 Excellent record as Gov for two terms in a large population state,Catholic, speaks fluent Spanish, married to a Mexican, a true Coservative who appeals to all three legs of the stool,and is an EXCELLENT SPEAKER and campaigner.

Unfortunately, his last name is Bush.

If there ever is a Bush in our future, look at George Prescott, Jeb&#039;s handsom,Hispanic looking son who now lives in Texas. 

If Republican&#039;s learn anything from this election, it is we don&#039;t win with Senators or Congressman , we win with GOVENORS!

So, next time around, we need to choose the strongest of the GOVENOR candidates : Jindal. Romney,Palin,Daniels,or Sanford.  ( In normal circumstances, Jeb Bush could beat them all.) 

Let a Senator or Congressman be VP : Ryan,Cantor,Thune,Burr or Bachman for example.</description>

		<description>Seriously, you blow my mind sometimes.

Why are my numbers wrong?  What&#039;s your source?  Oh, yeah... I guess becuase it wasn&#039;t on fightthesmears.com.  If you don&#039;t believe me, why don&#039;t you check some non-partisan tax reform websites and see what they say about it?  Americans for Tax Reform is a great one.  Why not check the IRS website and do a little research on your own?

That&#039;s what ticks me off about this election more than anything... Obama gave misleading statistics to support his policies and people like you refuse to believe anything other than what comes straight from his mouth.  WAKE UP!!!  His &quot;facts&quot; were total BS is you actually looked into them.

Do some research and bring back a few facts and sources.  Then we can talk.</description>

		<description>I know most your numbers are way off. And giving &quot;handouts&quot; is traditional fiscal policy. Rebates and such are designed to fight economic recession. Increase spending in infrastructure and lower taxes. That&#039;s expansionary fiscal policies. not to mention they aren&#039;t goodies. you have to work to get a tax cut.</description>

		<description>Mark Sanford / Tommy Thompson 2012.

Assuming that Obama has not magically cured the recession around the Great Leaks, Tommy Thompson can run strong in the region while Sanford will will give what niether ticket had this time around: a southerner.</description>

		<description>Perry?  No freaking way.  I&#039;ll tell you now, I&#039;ll either vote Democrat or stay home.

I live in Texas.  He wanted to take our teachers retirement fund and use it to fund start up companies.  There are so many things wrong with that one issue alone, I don&#039;t even know where to begin.</description>

		<description>That&#039;s a good point.

We&#039;re in a global recession and theoretically, you fall in and out of a global recession must harder and faster than a domestic recession.  So if economic theory holds true, we&#039;ll pull out of this and Obama will look like the hero when in reality it won&#039;t have anything to do with his policies or anyone else&#039;s.  So by the time the next election comes around, the economy will be fine.

That said, whatever policies he implements over the next year really won&#039;t effect the economy until about 2014 so, if he&#039;s not re-elected, the GOP will take the blame.</description>

		<description>Are you kidding me?

Do you know how Obama came up with his stat that 98% of small businesses don&#039;t make over 250K?  He counts grandmas that sell trinkets on EBay part time the same as he does a homebuilder employing 100 people.  So yeah, if you include all those people that don&#039;t really own a business, then yes, very few will be impacted by his tax plan... just the ones that actually create jobs.

I know a lot of people who own small businesses and I have a pretty good idea how much they make and how much higher taxes will impact them.

Not only is Obama planning to raise the income tax on this brack by 4.6%, but he&#039;s planning to increase their social security tax from 2.9% to 13.5%.  That means that small businesses will pay up to 54.9% in taxes!!!  Think about that... 54.9%.  That&#039;s a 17% raise.  That will crush a lot of small businesses.  Maybe you should take an economics class.

Obama and Liberalism means giving handouts.  The difference between Conservatives and Liberals is that Conseratives have their hand up, whereas liberals have their hand out.  Name one country where giving handouts to people has made it&#039;s economy stronger.  You can&#039;t, because there aren&#039;t any.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m a firm believer in never say never but cannot see how Perry (who is lacking in charisma and class - as a conservative voter who lived in Texas under part of his administration I can say that) and Blunt (whose reelection prospects this year were so bad he didn&#039;t even run) would ever have a chance at being president.  Perry is fortunate that the Democrats nominated a lackluster candidate in a GOP year in 2002, then he faced a split field of 3 opposition candidates who polled 60% of the anti-Perry vote thereby enabling him to win.  And this in strongly Republican Texas!</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m a firm believer in never say never but cannot see how Perry (who is lacking in charisma and class &#8211; as a conservative voter who lived in Texas under part of his administration I can say that) and Blunt (whose reelection prospects this year were so bad he didn&#8217;t even run) would ever have a chance at being president.  Perry is fortunate that the Democrats nominated a lackluster candidate in a GOP year in 2002, then he faced a split field of 3 opposition candidates who polled 60% of the anti-Perry vote thereby enabling him to win.

		<description>I like Gov Matt Blunt, he is a great man and a wonderful speaker. We are looking for a insprational person with great speaking skills.

Bobby Jindal is another

Ted Stevens won his seat..but may not serve,,,talk is that Gov Palin will have to appoint some one..and many are thinking and hoping Palin will chose herslf. 

Look at Rick Perry Gov of Texas too.</description>

		<description>I was saying why CC Goldwater endorsed him. Now I could explain to Alaina how he is increasing jobs and revenues, but I think right now that is futile. The small businesses is a lot more of volatile than both parties lead you to believe. Secondly they don&#039;t make as much money as you are led to believe. A few percentage of small businesses make more than $250,000. Thirdly, I know what liberalism stands for and Obama stands for. Liberalism stands for equal opportunity for everyone, even it means higher taxes. Obama stands for being united as one country, not conservative or liberals, red or blue, but one country.</description>

		<description>I can&#039;t believe that no one has said the sacred name.....RON PAUL.

No matter that he&#039;ll be an....older gentleman. He&#039;s still the man, and he&#039;ll be the man in 2012.</description>

		<description>He&#039;s giving financial freedom?  Is that why he&#039;s going to punish those that work hard for a living and create jobs for others?

And integrity?  Really?  I&#039;m so disgusted right now.</description>
