As I just said on the other thread, it would be great to have several conservatives competing for the top job on the planet.

people need to learn the folly of that. put too many conservatives on the ticket and they split the votes. then we end up with a rino. I've been watching it in my district, with our recent gov election, and in our presidential primary last time around. the guys that we would have most liked to see win got stomped, and we ended up with crap.

Not to mention the probability that the Republican primaries will be full of Democrats who will vote for Romney. If the kenyan runs without opposition the Democrat primaries will have low voting and the Republican primaries will be swamped- with Democrats, some or most voting positively for Roney as an alternative to the Luo. If Romney then gets elected he will know to whom he owes that victory and will govern accordingly. I think Democrats undêrstand that. If Soetoro runs and has serious opposition from the Left then maybe they will leave the R primaries alone.

We just did that in Michigan. Four conservatives and a RINO. The RINO won the nomination and the governorship.
