With the news that John Boehner will be resigning as Speaker of the House at the end of October, it will be a race to see who takes the gavel from him. While many are confident the next Speaker will be a man, I am sure the Republican Party will voice their support for a woman to take the Speaker's gavel. Given the highly-charged issues of women's rights, attack on family values, and other rhetoric of the Republican Party, it will fall to someone that can go toe-to-toe with the candidate Republicans all hope will be the Democratic Nominee. Out of the twenty-two women within the Republican Party who serve in the House, I have narrowed my predictions to three women. They are all qualified based on their merit and tenure. Each candidate brings a unique perspective to the position and if elected by their peers, would able to take command once the gavel is in her hands. I will present them not only on longevity, but also on who is best qualified. The three women that are ready to take the Speaker's gavel are:
1) Llena Ros-Lehtinen (Representative of Florida's 27th Congressional District)
She has been in Congress since 1989 representing Florida as the first Cuban American elected, the first Latina elected. She has had prominent "rising stars" on her staff including the current Republican Presidential candidate Marco Rubio. She is already in a position of leadership within the House as the Chairwoman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and a vocal member within the following caucuses - Pro-Life Women's, International Conversation, Hispanic, and Taiwan. She is just enough of a proponent of LGBT individuals that wouldn't register with Republicans during a primary and would be able to carry women and hispanics during a general election. Her stances on pro-life women's issues and Planned Parenthood would guide the next Congress into ways to eliminate funding for Planned Parenthood (even though no tax dollars fund abortions). She would be the resolute leader the Republicans are clearly lacking after the ongoing departure of Speaker Boehner - who couldn't control members of his own party including those aligned with the Tea Party Caucus.
2) Cathy McMorris Rodgers (Representative of Washington's 5th Congressional District)
She has been in Congress since 2005 and she hails from the state of Washington - a great state to retire to by the way…it's the New Hampshire of the West Coast. She has given the State of the Union Response back in 2014 and many political pundits stated she did an amazing job and great response. She is the highest ranking woman serving as the House Republican Conference Chairwoman - which makes sense for her to be the next Speaker if the former mentioned Congresswoman declines the position. She is a member of the Energy and Commerce committee which will play a big role regarding domestic issues in the 2016 election. She receives high praise from the Family Research Council, Gun Owners of America (as of 2014) and other Conservative groups throughout the nation. She is also a member of the Tea Party express of 2010 election cycle.
3) Marsha Blackburn (Representative of Tennessee's 7th Congressional District)
She is a well-known member of Congress within the Tea Party Caucus and those that identify as Tea Party members within the Republican Party. She is an avid opponent of Planned Parenthood, a staunch supporter of traditional marriage and doesn't support any politics that favor LGBT Americans. She has a favorable rating with all of the known conservative groups. If the Tea Party faction of the Republican Party does indeed want to overtake the party - Congressman Marsha Blackburn would be at the head of the line with the flag "Don't tread on me" waving and proclaiming strong conservative values that make Reagan look liberal. For the record, Marsha Blackburn is only one of a few female members of Congress that use the term "Congressman" to identify herself.
Out of all of these members, the most logical choice would be Congresswoman Llena Ros-Lehtinen. For the Tea Party Caucus to proclaim "victory" - without a naval warship - then Marsha Blackburn is the choice. For a new voice while bridging the gap between the establishment republicans and new age republicans, the choice would be Cathy McMorris Rodgers.
If the Republicans want to attempt to challenge Hillary Clinton (who is their only person running in a democratic primary apparently) in next year's election and have Republicans take the House, the Senate, and the White House, then the logical choice would be Congresswoman Llena Ros-Lehtinen.
I guess time will tell. How interesting would a Latina Speaker of the House be if it came from the Republican Party. It would cover two political demographic bases and maybe secure the White House…unless those groups actually do research on the current Republican Party and then a Democrat will win since they have nothing to justify their stances on such issues.

The Journey to the Wild West (Part 1 of 2)
My trip to Arizona was good. I left on Saturday afternoon (the 7th) and got there on Monday. Please bear in mind that I did this road trip by myself and I enjoyed it! I think what I'm going to do is break down the trip into two separate sections: Going out West & Returning from the West [and I will break it down even further by state]. I really hope I don't confuse anyone in the process; but, if I do...sorry!
Driving out to Arizona
North Carolina ~ I really don't remember driving in the western part of the state. I guess this is because I always - and still do - driving it to visit Western [Carolina University a.k.a. my Alma Mater]. At least there were no rock slides on I-40 to delay me from crossing over into Tennessee.
Tennessee ~ The Volunteer State! I really figured out the inner and outer beltways of the interstate highway systems when driving through/around major cities. Yes, I used to live in Washington, D.C.; however, when I lived there I either walked somewhere or took the metro. I've only driven in Washington a few times and I always got lucky regarding how to arrive at my destination. Well, I would sometimes find a metro stop and just leave my car and take the metro into the city via the blue line (so yes, I kinda cheated). Anyway, Nashville is a place where I would actually like to spend the day and see the sites. It is not, I repeat, NOT because I'm a country music fan. Don't get me wrong, there are few country songs that I like and will listen to if the chance presents itself; but overall, I am not a fan. I don't even watch the...well wait, I do watch the CMT Awards but that's different. It's like attending a mini-GOP convention!
Arkansas ~ This was the state I was so glad I drove through at night. What the history channel does not tell us is that "the natural state" is a boring, flat land-environment which lacks any means of hospitality or courtesy. I have not meet, or interacted with, a single person from the state that makes it look like a great place to live. The one thing it has going for itself is that it sits in Tornado Alley...and I say that only because I am a storm chaser at heart! Also, Conway is not an ideal place to spend the night...at least at the Quality Inn Hotel just off of Interstate 40.
Oklahoma ~ I didn't return through the Sooner State (which was a mistake in-and-of-itself), but I loved driving through it!!! Getting past my love for Tornado Alley, I really enjoyed the state and all it had to offer. Once I crossed the state border, I immediately began to sing all of the songs from the musical and I even sung "Oklahoma" twice as I was driving past the huge wheat fields! I also promised myself that the next time I traveled though the state, I would spend more time in Oklahoma City (the capital for those of you who are rusty on American Geography). The reason is simple: it looks like a beautiful city and I loved the traffic patterns. In addition, I also enjoyed knowing the names of the Native American tribes that were forced to relocate there due to the Trail of Tears. I believe this was the first state where I started to play a wonderful game entitled, "Guess how many Congressional Districts there are and name their member of Congress and their party affiliation!" Furthermore, I would also randomly shout out when I was entering a new congressional district [and its member of Congress]. It should be noted that when I travel, I channel my inner-President Bartlett. (Yes, that was a political reference for those of you who can't remember when he served ;D) For example, guess with congressional district has a democratic member of Congress in Oklahoma? I'll tell you if you don't know, ha-ha! I guess I should also reinstate the fact that I was making this road trip by myself and I really loved it!
Texas ~ As I continued my political game, I entered into the Lone Star State (a.k.a. "W" and Perry country). The panhandle is so much easier, and quicker, to drive through than the central part of the state (as I found out on the return trip). Anyway, Amarillo was alright; but, the traffic signs were a little hypocritical. For example, you can turn left on red even if there is a sign saying it is illegal to do so. There weren't even traffic cameras in the intersections. I guess things really are better on top!
New Mexico ~ The only highlight in "the Land of Enchantment" was stopping at White Sands National Park....okay, and driving through a live Missile Testing range. It was so epic! I spent the night in Ruidoso which is a wonderful place. Oh yeah, I also went to Roswell and it is indeed...out of this world! While I had no close encounters, I did have to pull over a few times because I thought I saw "something" in the sky. One of those "somethings" was a Delta flight going from Austin to Seattle - with a layover in Denver (and yes, I am an avid fan of flights and the whole aviation field - I should have been born in the '50s, '60s, or the later years of the '70s...not the '80s). I also went through a border checkpoint which was...a first. I didn't have to provide any documentation or proof other than a "yes, I am" to the question of my citizenship. I will surely discuss this on a later blog because there is a LOT I would LOVE to talk about regarding immigration and the stupidity of the Southwestern part of the country regarding this important topic of politics.
Returning to North Carolina
Arizona ~ It look less than two hours to drive and it was early in the morning. I listened to Lady Gaga just to keep me sane while leaving "the Grand Canyon" state.
New Mexico ~ The people are nice and driving through the lower portion of the state was fun. I was singing and dancing along with Darren Criss (Blaine Anderson from "Glee") as he sang "Hungry Like A Wolf/Rio" as I drove across the Rio Grande. I even sent out a tweet (and yes I was driving and I also left out the "e" on Grande because of my stupid auto-correct feature on the I-Phone).
Texas ~ I REALLY HATE THE STATE OF TEXAS!!!! Let me back up a second: there are people I know who are either from the state or who are living within the state so I don't hate all of the state. There was a border checkpoint east of El Paso and what I experienced was 100% racial profiling even though I showed valid proof of my citizenship! I've never been so uncomfortable in all of my life. I even wrote an e-mail to Secretary Napolitano and Governor Perry with my "concerns" regarding the checkpoint. Other than that horrid and inexcusable incident, the drive was so long. I'm really glad I didn't go to San Antonio as I originally planned. I went through Dallas/Ft. Worth at night and even that was a nightmare. They can't drive, merge correctly, or use a turning signal. Heck, I don't even think they knew how to change lanes properly. I guess everything really is bigger in Texas...except intelligence levels (remember, I am generalizing based on my accounts and it does not reflect ALL of the residents of the "Lone Star State"). I was so glad to leave the state even though I wanted to spend more time there. One thing Texas has going for itself is its history and historical points of interest. I'll see Deely Plaza, The Johnson Space Center, the state capital, and the Alamo the next time I visit. At least I drove through the hometown of George W. and Laura Bush (even though I didn't care and I'm sure nobody else does either).
Arkansas ~ I also REALLY HATE ARKANSAS! I do have to say this though: I stopped in Hope, AR! Now, ten points to the person to say why this place is important (especially for someone like me)? Here's a hint: The "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" person is famous here, Give up??? President Bill Clinton was born there!!!
Also, I decided to drive up to Hot Spring National Park. Now, I drove up the side of a mountain, walked into the observation tower center and asked if it served as the visitor's center as well. Oh no.....the visitor's center is in town!!! So after I ranted - for ten minutes - about the stupidity I had just endured, I drove back down the mountain and into downtown. Guess what my next rant was about...the vistor's center!!! I had to pay for parking! I really really ticked off by this point! First of all, my tax dollars - along with everyone else's who pay taxes- pay for the park and the visitor's center; second, there were no signs directing me towards the visitor's center (the only signs was for the stupid observation tower which I had no interest in because I am not an avid fan of heights). I refused to pay for parking since I already do more than that in a single year.
Again, I hate Arkansas for these reasons - and many more. The drivers there are just (I am currently trying to think of a polite word to use)...freaking stupid! As a matter of fact, I believe they are a few notches below Dallas/Ft. Worth drivers - and that's saying something!
Tennessee ~ I always get a thrill when I cross the Mississippi River. In a sense, I feel like I am either Lewis or Clark; or, I'm time traveling from the present to the dawn of the 19th century. I realize that last line should have been in the "going to Arizona" section; but, it does apply here as well (just reverse the time-frames).
North Carolina ~ Okay, the only thing that was different is the fact that I crossed the state line around 11:15PM. I'm glad Asheville had minimal traffic on I-40. It felt great to see my very-surprised dog greet me upon walking into the house at 1:03AM. Oh yeah, every time I passed the exit to go to Western Carolina University, I sang the fight song as well as the Alma mater!
I realize this is a long blog post. To be fair, I will post what I did during my time in Arizona in a separate blog post (coming soon to a computer screen soon). Don't worry, I'll post it soon, I promise!

Super Tuesday....Indeed, Indeed!
Well, it is finally here! No, not March Madness...although that is here as well. I'm talking about Super Tuesday. The day where anyone with some political knowledge will follow the results of the day's final outcomes. It is days like this that I will be sitting in front of the television and when there is a commercial break, I'll be: checking my phone; checking twitter; texting my political friends across the country; play different scenarios in my head if a candidate wins; argue with the political commentators; etc. This is what I live for everyday. Politics is indeed my life. Super Tuesday, the State of the Union, Inauguration Day, Election Day, and GOTV/GOTPV (Get Out The Vote/Get Out The Primary Vote) Day are my holidays.
Since Super Tuesday is here, it is important to know which states are voting today. It is a list of only ten states. Those states are:
1) Alaska - 27 Delegates
2) Georgia - 76 Delegates
3) Idaho - 32 Delegates
4) Massachusetts - 41 Delegates
5) North Dakota - 28 Delegates
6) Ohio - 66 Delegates
7) Oklahoma - 43 Delegates
8) Tennessee - 58 Delegates
9) Vermont - 17 Delegates
10) Virginia - 49 Delegates
Bear in mind that 419 delegates are up to be claimed by and of the four candidates: Romney, Santorum, Paul, and Gingrich. Now, here are my predictions before the polls start to close in less than an hour.
My Predictions for the 2012 Super Tuesday Primaries & Caucuses:
(*** = I made a correct prediction)
1) Alaska - Ron Paul
2) Idaho - Mitt Romney
3) Georgia - Newt Gingrich
4) Massachusetts - Mitt Romney
5) North Dakota - Ron Paul
6) Ohio - Rick Santorum
7) Oklahoma - Rick Santorum
8) Tennessee - Rick Santorum
9) Vermont - Mitt Romney
10) Virginia - Mitt Romney (but it will be a long count to ensure this win)
I do think Newt Gingrich will drop out of the GOP Presidential Race either tonight or by tomorrow afternoon. We might even see Ron Paul drop out of the GOP Presidential Race as well. I guess time will tell (I honestly don't think he'll drop out though).
I'll attempt to provide updates throughout the night. I think in the end Santorum will do just a little bit better than Romney. It would be interesting to see Ron Paul have a suprisingly good night though
***At 6:51PM, I switched Oklahoma to the "Rick Santorum" as the winner and "Vermont to the "Mitt Romney" winner; I think Vermont would mainly independent and fairly Tea Party Conservatives which are good for Ron Paul, but Romney has done well in New England even though he was on edge in Maine against Dr. Paul. As far Oklahoma, I think Santorum has done well in Oklahoma in terms of campaigning - through television ads and I think one stump speech in Tulsa. Ron Paul has not done anything in Oklahoma because it is a primary state and his focus is mainly for caucus states like Idaho.
