I thought McCain was a commie pinko for no going along with Bachmann's "Muslim Brotherhood" insanity.

South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley and New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez, the first female governors of their states, are among party leaders slated to address the gathering that begins Aug. 27. Martinez has the additional distinction of being the first female Hispanic governor in the country. Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, the first black female to hold that job, is also scheduled to speak

From the comments:

If Palin is not speaking in prime time. I will not vote for Romney and I am a Florida voter.

I couldn't agree more! I urge all Republicans to stay at home for the November election if Palin isn't given her rightful place at the convention. Heck, I might even vote for Nobama! Who's with me?

Or in other words, shills the GOP are using to try and claim that they love immigrants.

Quite a think tank they've assembled their. Love the inclusion of the female governors strictly because they're female. The party against giving any thing to anyone based on race or gender via affirmative action certainly don't mind picking what may not be the best candidate (Palin) based on gender. This party is so hypocritical, so lacking in morals, so devoid of any good that it is hard to not want to slap any of their sissified, self loathing, closeted, hateful constituents in their constantly tear stained, rat like faces.

I haven't heard much about Governor Martinez; she can't be doing that badly, and by that I mean she's not Teatarded. What I've heard of Governor Haley doesn't speak well, and everyone's already aware of Ms. Rice's record.

Ann Romney has promoted her preference for as well. But the RNC balked at the hiring of a manure scooper and a caviar server as outlined in the contract rider that Ann submitted. Rumor has it Ann retorted "No caviar? Then no veep speech from Rafalca. It will be the country's loss. Bunch of godless sodomites."

But that is just a rumor.

That pretty much sums up what I've heard of them. Gov. Haley is a serious dumbass, and her own party isn't fond of her anymore. (though apparently the out of state GOP liked her enough for this)

Isn't that a trajectory for National GOP success/fame?

W Bush, Michael Steele, Palin, Romney, now Haley...? I think we call it Failing Upwards?

The exception is McCain, who appears to be more liked in AZ than nationally. Didn't used to be the case - maybe we can push a poll to find out why.
