I sure hope you are still here if she decides NOT to run. But if she does(decide to run), I believe that can only strengthen the field. There are not enough conservatives currently running and I look forward to seeing her debating Cain, Santorum and Bachmann and yes even the back benchers, Paul, Johnson, Pawlenty, Romney, Gingrich and Daniels.
No one suggested McCain.
Run a leader who has the balls to fight and beat the limp wristed president Obama.
That’s all.
Not complicated at all.
I agree on the Christie thing, but Kasich has enough history for me. Kasich proved himself long before he got elected Governor. Christie on the other hand needs a full term as governor to prove he is worth his salt.
I saw that when I went back and reread the post. I thought for one second and typed for two, instead of thinking for two and typing for one. The gentleman from Illinois withdraws all post suggesting McCain. Sorry
I saw the head of the RNC on TV this a.m. - how much worse can it get???
Sarah already said that she will not form a exploratory committee, she will just jump into the race....second of all, why did she hire Michael Glassner to organize her campaign and get a new adviser on foreign affairs from the Hoover Institute? That doesn’t sound like a person ramping down to sit on the sidelines this fall..she’s running alright
As a supporter of Herman Cain, I take any inferences to the jackass from Arizona seriously. My apologies if my post to you seemed harsh.
Hard for Republicans to do. In the last presidential election, Bammy got away with running as a Ronald Reagan candidate by delivering it in the voice of a well-practiced Martin Luther King imitation. His defense on his strange ramblings regarding defense in the televised debate was that his positions were no different than those recommended by Republican advisors. Republicans get dumb-founded because they know they’re only fooling us when trying to differentiate themselves from Democrats. None of them are smart enough to deal with it.
Amen, brother.
Now, who is the one candidate from the current extended field who holds true to their conservative values, gets elected and does exactly what they say they are going to do, who doesn’t back down from a fight, will even challenge corruption in their own party, and who ignites the conservative base like no other?
I think we have our superhero!
The one thing that is going to be a BIG positive in the Republican primary is that the subject matter is going to be what we should be focusing on. Whoever wins will certainly know what the voters of the party are looking for.
Hopefully then, the candidate won’t pull a McCain and spend the entire general campaign trying to woo Hillary voters and others on the far left. Not only would such a candidate not get my vote, but I’d campaign against them. It’s been a few years in fact, since I’ve accepted the “lesser of two evils” BS. I’m back where I should be on the subject of evil. There are no degrees of evil. Evil is just evil.
I would be worried if I was a Obama lover,it is early and every GOP is better than him.
Kasich is a great governor, but he suffers from the horrendous chronic affliction of foot in mouth disease. He would never get through a presidential campaign without “Howard Deaning” himself.
See post # 55.
Rest assured. Come November 2012 I will dutifully mark the ballot for the presidential candidate mostly likely to succeed in ending the Obama Insurgency (OI!). And when she is sworn in come January 2013, I am sure all my fellow FReepers will be glad they helped make it happen. :)
I’ll wait to see how much they rely on canned applause machines.
NObody never toaught you how to read no good either...
there be a VERY BIG difference between Cain and McCain
I think Palin/Bachman is a GURANTEED win
un-beatable
You got 100% of the republicans (no complaint with these two)
and from the middle you get ALL the wimmin vote
and the men in the middle are probably done with obambi- how many of them feel stupid now for having fell for his BS
the libtards- forget them. We wont get them anyway, but I see a 60/40 vivtory for Palin/Bachman no matter how you slice up the demographics.
