>>Sarah was heads above the two you mention and any other moron that ran in those two elections.

We’ll never really know since she didn’t run. But, she did coyly act like she might run during the entire primary season just so her supporters would find fault in every other candidate. They all thought they were clearing a space for Sarah and it turned out that she didn’t want it. That was wrong of her to not make a decision in a timely manner and I will not forget that.

Why would he support Christie, he isn’t an Iowa type person?

Santorum and Huckabee I think are staying in thru NH.

Otherwise as former Iowa winners their endorsement would be a plus. Neither likes Cruz so their staying in deprives him of their voters support, not a big number, but they hammer Cruz all day long which is good for Trump. Both candidates say Cruz needs to address the birther issue.

They both drive Cruzers crazy.

Trump got a standing ovation at a Tea Party event in SC only a day or so ago. Recalibrate accordingly.

Trump wants to win IOWA, he has a lot of events in state and for sure he will be making sure to ask his audiences which are by far the largest I have ever seen in a primary to go to the Caucuses.

Trump is first now spending on ads, if he gets a big endorsement from Branstad, Palin or Franklin Graham it could be a clincher.

Its a tight race and Trump has chosen to spend the time in IOWA which he can do since he has big leads in NH, SC and NV. Trump is not used to coming in second. the only mystery is his Iowa organization, He says its fine, we don’t know. His potential voters show up its a blowout.

CNN poll has him ahead big. Should be interesting.

Her popularity would plunge to zero.

As opposed to what it is now? I don’t think this is the announcement.

I know several of Branstad’s big money buddies are pulling for Christie.

Could it be because on FR the same people who had PDS are the ones with TDS?

Palin is more man than Ted Cruz men and more woman than Ted Cruz women.

For certain the Trump campaign thinks an Iowa win is crucial. I see Trump has added three more events in the coming days in Iowa. Going all out. Not sure it will help unless he does get a Branstad or Ernst or some important Iowan to bless his camp.

I don’t think so.

I think he is just trying to set people up for disappointment.

He wants everyone to get excited about it and have it turn out to be someone or something else so everyone will be let down.

Sarah Palin Bows Out of 2012 Presidential Race


By Alice Wen

Wednesday, October 5, 2011 | 4:04 p.m. PDT

Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin announced her intentions to not seek the GOP nomination for the 2012 elections. 

In a letter to her supporters, Palin said she and her husband "devote ourselves to God, family and country. My decision maintains this order."

So you’re saying that I shouldn’t be angry with Palin. I should instead be angry with the idiots who thought she might join the race after her Oct 2011 press release and gave us Romney instead? OK. That’s fair.

The race is a non factor here at the moment. Our primary is in June and things will be over by then. We are generally finished with Christie so Trump would win the state by a landslide in the primary. He would break 50 in a multi candidate race.

Trump could put NJ into play in the general. It would be tough since the demographics of the state are much to overcome, but a good Republican candidate in a statewide race would pull 43/44 of the vote, so it’s conceivable that Trump could win this state given his popularity and ties to the state. Christie took 60% in the state in 2013. Cruz would get annihilated in the entire NE. The first state he would even be competitive in would be VA and he’d probably lose that by a healthy margin. Cruz would simply be a regional candidate if he won the nomination. Trump could very well win several non traditional Republican states.

If Palin endorses Trump, I might actually stay away from this forum for a day or show (or maybe I’ll just lurk and watch the fireworks.)

Steve Deace looks like a fat-faced beta male.

He looks like one of those internet "journalist" douchebags who go whole hog supporting a candidate, and then try to parlay that into a large fanbase/name for themselves.

If he wants in the game, he should suit up.

I think Trump is trying to ‘run the table’. Though I support him, that is a dauntimg task indeed.

LOL. On planet Teddy, maybe. It's a little planet where people forget what country they're a citizen of and that they borrowed a million dollars from globalist banks. Oh, and they think God made, everybody but their fellow retards, marks that they can take money from.
