The others don't really have a prayer of gaining the nomination.

According to the Democrat controlled MSM, they are not frontrunners, right?

We make whomever we want into front runners, by deciding to back them, by getting their names out, by sending links to friends and asking them to pass them on, check them out, etc.

This is the new media. It has brought down old media icons, but that is just strutting around the edge of the nest flapping a fledgeling's wings.

Time to really fly.

We can ill afford to let the Dems tell us who our candidate will be. Hunter looks best to me, but who ever is well enough backed by the grassroots could attract money--which comes to people who look promising.

Let's pick a candidate on the issues, and then push for the exposure.

Granted, some media viability has to be inherent (or taught) the candidate, but someone who resonates with conservatives who can work the whole conservative field.

People who vote party line Republican will get on the bandwagon, and anyone dissatisfied with the latest liberal antics, loss of soverignty, open borders, and who wants to be as secure as we can against terrorism will jump aboard too.

If the significant 'anyone but Hillary' crowd means that, their votes count as well, and there is a chance of bringing in some of the third party right wing on the basis of conservative principles.

Can it be done? Why not?

Who else would you want to get the nomination and why?

I ~have~ picked a candidate based on the issues that I see are critical.

NONE of the others inspire me. Thompson...maybe...but he’s not “in” yet.

I’ll support the eventual nominee. But IMHO, the only ones with a prayer of winning the general are Rudy, Mitt and ~maybe~ Fred Thompson.

That’s just the way I see it.
