Palin-Bachmann in 2012?

OK this just scares me. Now, don't automatically think I am being biased in saying this. I am predisposed against both of these people because of their ideological stances, yes, but I also would not advocate for this for other reasons. These two women come from the ideological right wing of American politics. I mean far right. Not as far right as the Illinois Nazis from the Blues Brothers, but far right enough to put gun targets on a map of democrats that voted for health-care reform. Far right enough to call for investigations into the un-American activities of congressmen. This is not the country we are.

It is like electing Jim DeMint (most conservative in the senate) as the senator from Rhode Island. It is like electing Dennis Kucinich as the mayor of Boise. Whoever is elected to the only nationwide office should represent a centrist, center-left or center right ideological position. That is why I believe Mitt Romney, though likely unable to compete in a closed GOP primary, would be a responsible choice to be the party's standard banner. He, unlike this pair, has actual experience dealing with some crucial issues such as health-care, the economy and taxes. He is a conservative that our country could live with.

Now, democrats, think twice before you pray for these two to become the Republican presidential nominees so we have a landslide victory in 2012 for Obama. If it is discovered that Obama is having an affair two days before the election, there is a good potential for our country to be in for some serious trouble.
