    Rising GOP politicians to watch?

    One thing I am seeing that gives me a lot of hope is there seems to be a rising crop of quality politicians in the GOP. Two, the younger/rising types in the Dem party are so awful, they make their predecessors look sane. This combination actually bodes well for the future I think as there will be good people to choose from on the GOP side and very few (any) to choose from from the Dems:

    Now, I don't know the RINO status these gents and all their positions, but what I get from them is that their actual human beings with a backbone to be leaders and stand for something.

    Ron Desantis gov of FL seems to be a solid guy all around and I'm glad I voted for him. I really enjoy how he handles the press. He takes no BS from them. I suspect he has a bright future. He just passed a sweeping de regulation bill even the libertarians are singing his praises over.

    Congressman Brain Mast represents my area, and he seems solid. He's a vet who lost both legs. I met him briefly at the museum and all in all, seems like an actual human:

    Congressman Dan Crenshaw of TX seems solid too and he's funny SOB some times.

    What about Kristi Noem from South Dakota? I don't know that much about her but I get a good impression from what I have seen.

    Who else should we be aware of and why?

    Dem Side: Are there any Dems coming up that are not insane the party is ignoring in favor of the nuts? Like her or not, Tulsi Gabbard does not seem insane to me and seems like an actual human. I don't like all her policies, but she strikes as having a moral core she works from and has not shown any TDS for example.

    Cawthorn (young man who had an officer's commission on the way but paralyzed in an accident before it could take effect) out of NC and Lauren Boebert (Shooter's Grill in CO, the lady who confronted Bleato O'sheepsuit) are two to watch. Burgess Owens is running for Mia Love's old seat in UT trying to re-flip it.

    Crenshaw lost me with his support of both red flag laws and the TAPS Act, the latter of which he himself cosponsored.

    I hope he's kicked to the curb. With Republicans like Crenshaw, who needs Democrats?

    Two women are gaining prominence:

    Anna Luna from Florida
    Catalina Lauf from Illinois

    Both are extremely pro-gun, good solid conservatives, and very smart and well spoken. They're both stunningly gorgeous as well (Anna Luna is a model, though I think Catalina is better looking).

    Senator Tim Scott from S. Carolina has been speaking up more and more. The fact that he has been viciously attacked by the left for being a black, conservative Republican I think is actually working in his favor. I wouldn't be surprised to see him make a White House run in 2024.

    Sean Parnell was an infantry officer with a platoon who had a rough time in Afghanistan. Wrote a book called Outlaw Platoon. He's currently running for office.

    Alek Skarlatos of "15:17 to Paris" fame is running in Oregon. Needs all the help he can get.

    I wouldn't mind watching her.

    She's a foxy little mink.

    Don't worry. The left will find a way of smearing them.
