Fair enough.
So, who *do* you like for POTUS in 2012? And why?
I'd like to see Haley Barbour run. He's a reasonably solid conservative, has a strong political background, and has showed himself to be a very able governor in difficult times (e.g., his Katrina response). His term as head of the RNC was notably successful. He's seen the inside of White House operations, having worked for Reagan for a time.
A downside of a Barbour candidacy is that he's really only ever been in politics in one form or another. Politically, his lobbying activities would be a definite liability.
Still, of all the people out there, he's probably the one who's best-equipped actually to step into the presidency without having to learn too much on the job.
