The Washington Examiner_ Mon. 5-18-09:"Huntsman strategist: If Palin, Limbaugh and Cheney dominate, GOP 'headed for a blowout' in 2012" (By Byron York – Chief Political Correspondent)The Republican strategist who helped Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman prepare for a possible presidential run says the Republican party is in for a devastating defeat if its guiding lights are Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh and Dick Cheney:"If it's 2012 and our party is defined by Palin and Limbaugh and Cheney, then we're headed for a blowout," says strategist John Weaver, who advised Huntsman and was for years a close adviser to Sen. John McCain. "That's just the truth."In March, Huntsman held a fundraiser for McMaster in Utah, the kind of you-help-me-I'll-help-you arrangement that is key for a potential presidential candidate looking to build support in early primary states. Now, Huntsman's decision to accept the president's invitation to serve as ambassador to China effectively means he is out of the 2012 contest. "President Obama is smart to try to get him out of play, because he's the real thing," says Quinn.

Sees the handwriting on the wall for the GOP with the party's "stay the LOSING course" strategy.2. Are critical-THINKERS and aren’t inclined to rule the “kingdom of irrelevance’ along with the rest of the Party. There can be no greater gift to the Dems and the future of America than for Cheney, Limbaugh, Palin, Newt and their ilk to KEEP TALKING, alienating_and OFFENDING_the majority of American voters.
