In this piece, Karl Rove advocates for
nominating “a fresh face” at the Republican convention this summer. There can be no worse scenario for anyone who
wants a Republican win in November or is looking out for the long-term health
of the Republican Party.
How can an experienced political hack
like Rove think that nominating a guy that did not receive even one vote during
the primary process isn’t going to cause a revolt among the millions of voters
who stood in line to get into rallies and vote, and contributed their hard
earned Yankee dollars to their candidate?
I think Rove is pushing the “fresh face” of Paulie Walnuts. In terms us Trumpets can understand, Paulie
Walnuts is a loser.
So if not Paulie, who? Two-time loser Mitt? Bob Dole?
John McCain? Alan Simpson? News flash to Karl: There is NO “fresh
face” in the Rat establishment Republican Party. Outsider Donald Trump IS the “fresh face”.
Trump needs to do something to put this
thing away. I think he ought to consider
naming his VP candidate right now. Newt
Gingrich would be my first recommendation.
Jeff Sessions is a close second. That’s
two southern white guys, not optimal ticket balance. If Rove demands a “fresh face” how about a
military guy like retired Marine Corps General Mattis.
Not Chris Christie. Given the atmosphere on America’s campuses,
where coeds are fainting dead away when confronted with a chalk note scribbled
on the sidewalk, we probably do not need two loud truth tellers. Because he pretty much destroyed the ReR field,
I do not think there any others from the field of former would-be candidates
willing to side with Trump. Rand Paul
would be interesting. His old man has
indicated that’d never vote for Trump, so Rand is probably out as well.
If he could get her, Condi Rice would be
the optimal political balance. Play on
her patriotism. Tell her the country
needs her now more than ever. Tell her
it’s her duty to once again answer the country’s call.
Sure she isn’t the most conservative
choice in the field, neither is Trump. Remember the #1 issue is immigration, little else matters.
