More of the same crap PING!
Mike Huckabee: 23%
Mitt Romney: 21%
Newt Gingrich: 18%
Sarah Palin: 13%
Ron Paul: 8%
Tim Pawlenty: 4%
Mitch Daniels: 2%
John Thune: 1%
“Will have no RINO.”
To know Romney is to loath him.Same for Newt too.
“Pence is in my opinion the best in the field, though I am not entirely satisfied with him as the nominee, either.”
What are some of his drawbacks?
Nobody wants Romney except his servants.
You must be living in Iceland.
Oprah doesn’t have the gravitas to be able to take on Palin.
Reading the left wing Allahpundit stuff is almost as bad as reading huffpo or du. I don’t believe I’ve read anything by him that I’ve agreed with for several years. Glad Michelle Malkin dumped the Hot Air site to get away from the idiots!
Anyone who puts credence to polls done by PPP is very lame.
Huckaby and Gingrich are both major losers, in the eyes of real conservatives. .....Seems the lefties keep trying to pick the GOP candidate again, like they did when they selected McCain in 2008 by all of their cross-over voting in the primaries. ............JMO
Like all of them, he’s not new to the scene. The mere fact that he was part of the “lost its way” Congress is troubling to me. But he was a conservative then as now. His biggest problem, I guess, is that he does not have the charisma or recognition of Romney, McCain, or Palin, but I don’t think anyone else does either, and even Romney, McCain and Palin don’t score well on that.

Charisma definitely helps. At this point, I think Huckabee is probably the most charismatic. However, he lost my vote when he failed to utter a peep about the repeal of DADT. Of course, neither did Romney or Palin, but I expected less of them.
Unless someone else better emerges, I hope Pence runs for President. He seems like quite a decent candidate.
The thing that soured me on Huckabee was his attempt to imitate Clinton while governor of Arkansas. I’m not voting for anyone who supports the welfare state.

That’s definitely problematic. And I sure hope he didn’t try to imitate Clinton with Gennifer Flowers either. ;)
He was at 52 percent in March, more than 30 points ahead of Huckabee, and now? 21 percent, two points behind Huck... I think part of the reason he polled so well earlier in the year is that he was the anti-Palin.Thanks 2ndDivisionVet.
