The problem with many of these wannabees is that, whenever they open their mouths, they lose points/votes.
Many on the GOP side are so desperate for a good candidate that, like them pushing for Thompson in 2008, they aren’t looking too closely at the individuals.
I am in a similar position to 2008 — so far, I don’t see any of the wannabees who would be ‘the excellent candidate’ for 2012. We have a bunch of old white-haired (and some black-haird) retreads. We have a bunch of Senators (100 out of 100 want to be President). We have several lackluster governors who can’t seem to keep their feet out of their mouths.
Several of the early straw polls have ‘other’ running at 80%.
I agree.
We stand a real chance of suffering another 2008.
One candidate in particular who is not only a lightening rod, but has countless skeletons waiting in the MSM closet, to be dumped on the public when the final declaration as a candidate is official.
We need to get serious about picking a real candidate without all that baggage this time.
