Whoever gets the nomination will need a moderate on the ticket. Probably someone from a midwestern swing state. And, Brewer would pretty well guarantee that the GOP could forget about ever getting any of the Hispanice vote.

The Secret Service should've tackled her. Just to be on the safe side. That finger looks kinda threatening.

They have those votes locked up, any marginal boost in wingnut turnout by a VP pick like that will be far offset by losses of independents scared away.

Also, have we ever had anyone on the ticket in recent times who didn't even graduate college? Palin is close, I know.

to try and interest them. But I agree--she won't be on the ticket. Having her would automatically guarantee the GOP getting a much smaller share of the Latino vote.

I think that this was deliberately planned to rouse the racist/bagger base.

PEACE!
