I would offer Newt Gingrich as a man who certainly fits your implicit test, actually carries less baggage than Trump, and, as an added bonus, is a conservative. I repeat, he is a conservative.

Which should only go to show you that Trump knows what to say.
That was a good post and sensible. Cheers
For the younger of FR he is known as a Populist. Learn the history of how that works. In the mean time enjoy the ride.
Voters and Cal Thomas shouldn’t buy into the lie that Zero is eligible to be president.
You are characterizing all candidates except Palin as RINOS or wimps. I vehemently disagree with that characterization as you applied it to John Bolton, Hermann Cain, Alan West and Michelle Bachmann. I agree with you as far as Hackabee, Romney, Huntsman, and the rest of the field.
I heard that he's already got Franklin Graham on his side.....
I did see her Madison address - and it was great. But is she as good unscripted as she is scripted?? I have some doubts, though I will admit she went toe to toe with Biden during their debate.
I have doubts about Trump regarding policy/issues, but he’s as good scripted as non-scripted. He doesn’t take sh*t and we’ve been needing someone like that for a long time. I think that is vital.
Your words make a better headline!
He said the same exact thing on Hannity's T.V. show, as he did on his afternoon radio show, as most of what he said when he was on with Rush, the day or two before, and the following night with Greta.
Palin is very good and has gotten much better, over the years, whether scripted or off the cuff.
I am beginning to believe (although I know already) that there is more to this Obama birth certificate thing than we think.
It is amazing how all the media, public personalities, and even some of our own so called “conservative” types are bashing Trump. It is a page right out of “rules for radicals”
it scares me...
These are all the same people who would be ridiculed and made “irrelevant” if the birth certiticate thing turned out to be true...
I agree, but I would take a Herman Cain or congressman West or either Michelle or Sarah over what we will get from the Rino party. Be prepared to get a conservative lite figure that cannot bring any passion to the easy target that is Ozero.

How much freaking worse can Trump be when compared to TOTUS?

No, not at all.
I am not a Trump for president guy.
I am referring to the main front names that are considered
as front runners by the MSM.
None of the GOOD people that you list have much chance of getting the nomination.
The MSM will make sure of it.
Now I'm not claiming that Trump is a Socialist, but he isn't a conservative, nor even just a GOPer. He has never been elected to anything, has no idea how the government works ( or doesn't ), and has no conservative (politicians) connections. The head of NY's conservative party has more or less disavowed him.
So how much worse could Trump be, than Obama? Hmmmmmmmmm......about the same and perchance worse, since he has lots of rabidly lefty "pals" in politics; especially, but not exclusively, the Clintons.
Newt isn’t all that conservative....sitting with Pelosi on that sofa, pushing CLIMATE CHANGE/greenie crapola doesn’t work for lots of us.
“Donald is a capitalist. Romney is a Progressive-Lite.”
Romney was an attendee at Soros’ Bretton Woods II. Very disturbing.
“I’ll take Colonel West or Herman Cain over either of them. Those gentlemen are the “complete package.”
I love both of them, and think they meet the criteria of being fearless speakers who wouldn’t back down to either the media or BHO in the all-critical debate and speech areas. But West says he’s too new at Congress and has more to learn before he’d be ready to think about higher office, and unfortunately, I really think BHO’s poisoned the well for years to come when it comes to another black candidate. I think the world of both West and Cain, though. If only one of them could’ve been our first black President.
Cal Thumps Jump to Rump Trump Stump. But why?
Cal is right. Trump would be a disaster and absolutely guarantees 4 more years of Obama.
It amazes me that people here are in love with Trump. He’s anything but a social conservative, has so many skeletons in his closet that would bring him down, he has gone into bankruptcy on several of his businesses and he’s the guy? Good Lord.
