I wouldn't say this map is impossible; however if Washington is on there, Delaware, Maine and California will all go republican too. We are well on our way to a republican landslide in 2012. Everything that has happened in the last 9 months is fodder in a general election campaign against Obama. We do have to have the right candidate - maybe someone we don't know of yet. We need to create a candidate with:
Palin's tenacity, youth, beauty and her ability to galvanize our base. (and speak for us)
Romney's intellect, minus the smarm and mormon.
Huckabees communication skills.
I think you should nominate Palin. Her tenacity, youth, beauty and 'maverick'-ness will be a sure winner in 2012. You betcha!
