Your comment reminds me why the Midwest is called the "heartland". It's pretty obvious that the "Brainlands" are on the coasts.

Just what this nation needs in elected officials, a Baptist minister with extreme views on personal rights and a Mormon religious undergarment wearer. Well, at least both were only married once to the same women, unlike most of the other Republican "family values" crowd.

so can liberals ever think of anything useful - or do you just call people names, make fun of things you are incapable of understanding and make up psuedonyms in a weak attempt to belittle the real thinkers of this nation - i.e. the traditional American conservative
you know - name calling hurts no one and belittles only the speaker

Huckabee, Romney, and Palin may appeal to the Republican's conservative base, but none are representative of the majority of Americans, nor will they capture any of the solid voting blocks which are key to winning.

Guess what, Bruce? Sarah isn't running for any public office. So, why should she give a flip about any polls? And why do desperate, silly "journalists" keep posting such nonsense?
