This entire list is boring as hell; that is, they are all the same except for West, IMV.
Is there a dynamic leader that could step up and grab hold of the nomination?

I actually think its a pretty strong list personally. I mean at least compared to what we have had the last 12 years.
The upper tier of:
Paul Ryan
Bobby Jindal
Chris Christie
Rand Paul
Marco Rubio
Jeb Bush
That's one of the best classes we've ever had.
You've got minorities, 2 legacies, a fat man, and a former VP candidate. Just need a women to fill the quota.
Electorally you've got a Libertarian, a Conservative Budget Hawk, a charismatic Senator from a swing state, an extremely popular former governor from a swing state, a proven conservative governor from the south, and governor who has figured out how to win in the northeast.

I think you have to look at it from the 3 major groups in the GOP. I actually believe Jindal has an ability to pull from these 3 groups maybe better than anyone.
Tea Party
1. Rand Paul
2. Marco Rubio
3. Jim DeMint
Evangelical
1. Bob McConnell
2. Mike Huckabee
Establishment
1. Jeb Bush
2. Chris Christie
3. Paul Ryan
4. John Thune
Overall Appeal (No Order)
1. Bobby Jindal
1. Rand Paul
1. Chris Christie
1. Jeb Bush
1. Marco Rubio

This!
So the SOB railed on the House GOP for not passing a pork-laden federal Sandy relief aid bill. The House cleaned the Bill up and sent it back to the Senate nearly two weeks ago. There it has languished, untended to, while Christie's constituents freeze in this winter storm.
"There's only one group to blame for the continued suffering of these innocent victims, the House majority and their speaker, John Boehner," Christie said.
Where is the fat-ass with his big mouth now?
