Glad someone else said it...heh

We could include the Civil War in which we kicked our own @sses

But for one, that would be sadomasochistic.

Let's see. I don't believe the South was at the time, a part of the United States, so you can't really say we lost that one now can we?

Huckabee pissed me off when he kept slamming Romney even AFTER Mitt dropped out.

Mitt will do 10x more for conservatives in this country than Huckabee. It isn't even close.

The war didn't start until after secession of South Carolina, then after the shot at Fort Sumter, the other states then followed suit.

I was the other end of the conservative spectrum....I voted for Huckabee, but I might vote for McCain if he chooses even Romney!

I am just praying he doesn't pick Crist.....

I'd prefer someone other than Pawlenty or Crist.

Romney would be good, but I'm worried about tarnishing him if McCain goes in the tank. I'd love a Romney/Jindal campaign in 2012.

I'd definitely go for Romney/Jindal. There was a rumor McCain was going to pick Jindal, but I don't think it is the best time for Jindal to pursue that.

Is the Democratic Race finally over????

I'm a huge Romney supporter, for a number of reasons. His presence on the ticket would be enough for me to vote McCain, but, like you, I'm hoping he just holds off for a possible 2012 run.

As for Hilary on the SCOTUS; I really don't see that happening. If Obama wins, there are a number of other potential nominees (MA Governor Deval Patrick, Dean Kagan from Harvard, Kathleen Sullivan from Stanford, Seth Waxman at WilmerHale, among many others) who would be ahead of Hilary on the list.

Incidentally, the SCOTUSblog has a post listing some potential nominees (note, the list is from July 2007):

Looks like Crist, Jindal, and maybe Romney will talk VP stuff at his Arizona home.
