Reply To: Your Dream-Ticket for 2012

Give Me a Break

1. Sound like a politician…

2. True. However, you have to be an Obama/Carter idiot (sorry Mr. President — after yesterdays speech where you engaged in dumb partisan talk, I think you deserve it) to alienate allies (bellicose) and befriend enemies (pacifist). Ronald Reagan had no foreign policy credentials and he did great (better than former UN ambassador and CIA director George Bush). You need common sense to engage in diplomacy.

3. I’d even vote for Hillary over Obama. Remember, it’s our dream ticket we’re discussing here.

4. Valid reason. The question is if you’d want a VP for just one purpose.

5. I’d opt for Huntsman or Romney if it’s ony about presidential looks.

I would say that Patraeus

has the electibilty factor. He perhaps has the best chance to beat Obama (if foreign policy is the issue) and has absolutely no baggage.

What is the problem with Huckabee being a Florida resident? Arkansas or Georgia for that matter wouldn’t make the ticket any more balanced. Huckabee factually still has influence in Arkansas.

Which Floridians? Rubio and Scott?
