Hillary Clinton remains the clear frontrunner for the Democratic nomination in 2016, while Mitt Romney barely leads against a scattered group of Republicans.

Among registered voters, former Secretary of State Clinton leads the potential 2016 Democratic field, with 64 percent of the vote. She has a sizable lead on Vice President Joe Biden (13 percent) and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren (11 percent), according to a new ABC News/Washington Post poll.

Somebody with at least some head coaching experience.

My top choice right now, is Cutcliffe, to reunite him with Roper.

The previous time we got a Duke Head Coach worked out pretty well for us.

When the Democrat media starts beating the drums for Romney, any Republican with a working brain should know they are choosing the loser to Hillary. Romney couldn’t beat the worst president ever, with a horrible economy and ObamaCare around his neck, so Hillary could start choosing which pants suit to wear to her inauguration.

Hillary is leading because she’s Bill’s wife. Mitt is leading because the ‘rats in the media are trying to sabotage the election polling.

"That’s more than can be said for Democrats who will be contrary just to be contrary."

Strangely, Democrats make their own weather.

Just ask them. They will tell you it is getting hot when it's -40 and 4ft of snow.

We have to avoid the mistakes of 2012.

The RNC Chairman still has his job. That is mistake #1 and with him being the head of the RNC and him calling the shots, it is beyond a HUGE mistake. I remember Hannity had him stumped when it came to the Republican Congress needing to step up and be tough and Prince Reibus was just cool with them sending in a sternly worded letter or something equally as laughable. This is why we lose with dufuses like this in leadership positions.

Romney lost when he could have run a real, normal campaign and won by a landslide. Hillary is disaster, has screwed up horribly when given a job. There’s something very dysfunctional with our political system if these are the leading candidates now after all we’ve been through. I mean , in a nation of 300,000,069 people These two individuals are the best our political system comes up with?

I don’t agree with you at all.

In case you haven’t seen any of the interviews with Mrs. Romney, she has just announced the beginning of a research center focusing on diseases like MS (she named the others, but it’s late and I can’t remember all of them).

Anyway, with her announcing this new RESEARCH CENTER, which has to be built .. just where do you think the Romney’s will be pouring in their money, along with a lot of other donors ..??

Anne has said quite a few times that Mitt is “done, done, done with politics”. I suspect she’s right.

So, we’re not “screwed” .. because I believe Ted Cruz will be the nominee and even if Hillary runs .. she can never outrun Ted .. he will have her tied in knots in any debate.

Well, sure, but if I'd put in Soros' picture I'd never hear the end of it.

Why wouldn’t Romney be leading now? His name ID is about 100%, and he had a $700,000,000 PR campaign running for him that ended not even two full years ago.

Romney is not going to run, and he’s not going to be the GOP’s presidential nominee ever again.

“Romney”

Pass.

“Behind Romney falls Bush (10 percent), former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (10 percent), Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul (9 percent), New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (8 percent) and Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan (5 percent).”

Pass, pass, pass, pass, pass.

I’d certainly feel hopeful to see Ted make it, and yet let’s remember that Ted is not a one man dynamo. He needs the support of those who would root for the Lord, just as much as any other Christian would.

Even at the best, not everybody’s desiderata, even the very noblest, will be met. That is the condition of this mortal world, and should remind us to remember that the earth and all that is in it, is the Lord’s. Will we accept heaven’s offer, not to turn earth into heaven (impossible) but to see the kingdom of heaven spread (very possible)?

Romney is the most outwardly presidential politician in front of a camera. Americans miss someone presidential. Even the hood rats have had their belly full of a community activist in chief as their president.

Romney doesn’t grunt like a chimanzee in a press conference. I’ll give him that much and only that much.

Yes, but I seem to remember that GOD created MAN to be the caretaker of the world.

And .. in case you forgot, Adam and Eve disobeyed God and caused a curse to come upon the earth ..... and guess what ..?? It’s still here .. and I would hardly call the current earth, “the Lord’s”.

What the Lord has dominion over is THE HEARTS OF HUMANs WHO ARE SOLD OUT TO HIM. The earth is still in the control of man.
