Evidently, some Republicans want to draft Dennis Miller to run for a statewide office on the Left Coast. The story is from the LA Times, so it could be a complete fiction. But it wouldn't shock me if it were true.
I worry about what's happening to the Republican Party. As a friend is fond of saying, "The Republicans are great at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory." It is my contention, perhaps mistakenly, that most people become Republicans because they want to belong to a party that stands on principles, not emotions, focus groups and polling data. But seeking the endorsements of celebrities in the same way Democrats do is, to me, selling out. The truth does not need endorsement or public praise; it will stand on its own.

Still keeping some basic ideas but going left with pro-abortion and affirmative action. There is no need to bend of conform when "Right" is right!
