19. I would prefer the GOP to nominate their best candidate

And then for us to have an election in which those candidates state, defend, and debate their positions, and then we have an election.

The nitwittery of the last election deprived all of us of a healthy political debate.

I don't want to hear about passionate sermons by preachers not in the race, snow machines v. snowmobiles, the Weather Underground, moose hunting, "whitey" tapes, birth certificates, or lipstick on household pets.

I would like to hear two intelligent people who disagree, discuss the issues of relevance, such as they may be in 2012.

And I would like the best one of them to win.

That's just me.
