They already threw one old man to the wolves because they knew they didn't want to ruin the career of any up and comer...problem is, there aren't any up and comers who aren't nuts running around in the bottom of their cookie jar right now.
Who's the next sacrificial lamb? Dimwits like Palin, Bachmann, Santorum, etc., are good choices (they aren't going anywhere anyway), but they don't even pass the straight face test for the PTA, much less the Presidency...throwing one of their own to the wolves so they can start planning for 2016 is one thing, making themselves look even more ridiculous by putting up a sock puppet is worse...
They need an elder statesman who's career is pretty much over anyway, who won't mind lending even an air of legitimacy to their cause, and won't be hurt by being soundly whooped.
They gave up McCain last time...who's turn is it to take one for the team? Trot out Colin Powell to run against Obama? That'd be interesting...how about Joe Lieberman?
Fish on...

Reps could run Bozo the Clown and he would have a good chance since Pres O is gonna have to explain why Gitmo is still open, why we are still in Iraq, why his plan for Afghanistan hasn't worked, why he hasn't created any jobs other than Czars and IRS employees, why the price of gas is $5 a gallon and he has no long term energy plan, and the list could go on and on and on. Healthcare could be a 3 night debate mini series all on its own.
