    - I don't see any benefit to him of even acknowledging it, let alone taking a stand on it one way or another. -- nm - Ender Aug 5, 10:17 4
      - if he doesn't accept he's got Palin and the other far righters calling for his ousting. -- nm - Remlik Aug 5, 10:24 3
        
        1. Palin has near zero influence on anybody. 2. Ryan's district is basically suburban Chicago so it's going to trend middle anyway. -- nm - spamlet Aug 5, 10:37
