Smaller Indiana

Making people and ideas findable

The numbers aren’t good. Only 26% of voters have a positive view of the GOP and only 7% say they feel “very positive” about the embattled party.

Former Reagan adviser Ed Rollins says the Republicans are simply irrelevant at the moment. Is the party that once appealed to everyone from Connecticut Yankees to Texas oilmen to Kid Rock to lawn-care store owners in Phoenix becoming a marginal movement?

If so, what or who can stop the tide? Could a guy like Mitch Daniels lead the party back to health? Or is the party over? Share your thoughts here

I like Mitch and what he has done and is doing for Indiana. I would like to see him stay put.

As for the Republican party, the old guard needs to quiet down and allow the next generation to take charge and chart a new course. Otherwise, the GOP may become irrelevant.

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The White House is downplaying published reports of an estimated $50 billion to $60 billion price tag for a war with Iraq, saying it is "impossible" to estimate the cost at this time.

White House Office of Management and Budget Director Mitch Daniels told The New York Times in an interview published Tuesday that such a conflict could cost $50 billion to $60 billion -- the price tag of the 1991 Persian Gulf War.

He was only off by about $840 Billion. Oops.
