So Who's Running, Dang it?!?
opinion | 03/02/2011 | brianbaldwin

Posted on 03/02/2011 8:56:47 PM PST by Brian_Baldwin

Right now Laura Ingraham is talking about “Republicans need to step forward now, now is the time, if they are going to run”, and so I am wondering myself who are the Republican candidates (for President) in 2012?

It doesn’t matter if they say they are running or not, can someone give me the complete list? I want to start making a decision early this time so I can jump in with good spirit and enthusiasm, I think this battle needs to start early and start now because it’s going to be a long campaign.

So who has the “long list”? I may have forgotten someone, overlooked, maybe I am off the mark.

I tried to put together a “gut list” and this is the only thing I came up with so far:

Republicans definitely on my list: Romney Palin Bachmann Paul Trump

Republicans not on my list: (Jeb) Bush

Republicans who are in good keeping but are not on my list because they cannot win: Gingrich


TOPICS: Chit/Chat
KEYWORDS: 2012; bachmann; backstabberromney; benedictromney; brianbaldwin; brutusromney; huckabee; palin; republicans; romney; romney4dnc; romney4obama; romney4obamacare; romney4tarp; romneybigdig; romneycare; romneycoverup; romneymarriage; ronpaul; spoilerromney; trump

Romney - for sure will run

Palin - Probably not running

Bachmann - maybe

Paul - will run *gag*

Trump - Will not run, just pimping himself out for publicity

Yes there is a name I left off, forgot - Santorum. But the thing I am looking for is a “long list” of names. Anyone have one of those?

Romney is the media pick. He automatically disarms the republicans when it comes to Obama/Romney care.

This fool had better NOT be the one to win. We MUST not let the media/dems/socialists/Marxists (wait.. they are all one in the same) chose our candidate for us.

Cain/Palin would be good.

Dick Morris said his tag line should be “call me Mr Cain” since he has tons of business experience and no political experience. (just for that, I’d vote for him)

Oh my! How did I leave him off the list - Huckabee! You know, I really ragged on the guy the previous time he ran, and kept calling him “Park Ranger” because he struck me as a Park Ranger.

But now I love him, and if the Reps come around to supporting him, I will be there?

But again - anyone have the “long list” of names?
