If the Left likes some of our candidates as "reality-based" in comparison to others, can you guess what that really means?

We vote in Palin/Cain and watch the Democrats’s heads explode.

They knew when they first saw her, they had to do everything to destroy her before 2012. She runs, she wins. It is that simple.

casting away moderates like Arlen Specter,

I don't care who you are, someone drunk enough to write that is funny. That's that same guy that took Big Bertha home after getting hammered at the bar.

Arlen Specter? Moderate? LOLOLOL! Moderate democrat, maybe.

I believe the frontrunners for the GOP nomination will be Herman Cain and Michele Bachmann.

I think when Mitch took that door to the forehead on Friday, he saw it as a "sign" to not run.

[There are still at least two reality-based Republicans in the race: former Utah governor Jon Huntsman, who has the inconvenient distinction of serving as Obama’s ambassador to China, and former Massachusetts governor Romney]

Dorothy, you’ve always had it in your power to go home, Just click your heals and say “I want to go home”

Some how I keep ending up in the Land of Oz reading these liberal hallucinations. Huntsman and Romney, yeah sure. Are we back in Kansas yet?

I would prefer that Mitt Romney be widely seen as the inevitable candidate and undisputed front runner before Palin announces.

I want her to come in as the underdog, in fact it is revealing that she doesn’t really seem able to win that designation and that coverage even though the media on the surface, paints her as a nothing candidate.

IMHO...

The farther left the Repub nominee is, the closer to nobama they are. If the Repub candidate is a “light” version of nobama, nobama wins. 2008 proved that.

Consequently, the media (left) want a Dem light Repub.

The Repub political machine, like the Dem, is spineless, and their only political tactic is compromise. They think that elections are ONLY decided by money, so they listen only to lobbyists to get their legislative agenda, and political consultants to figure out how to make that agenda palatable to voters. And any voters will do, winning is all that matters. The only voting blocks they want to pander to is the combination of voting blocks the consultants tell them they need for the current election.

Consequently, the Repub political machine will ONLY back candidates that are part of their machine.

A candidate with America and it’s citizens as their primary concern will need to build their own machine outside of the Repub machine to get to a point where they appear that they might win the primary, then they will start to get Repub machine people to defect to supporting them.

In order to get big business to back them, an “outsider” conservative candidate simply has to convince that the gov’t will shrink and the economy will improve in general under them. Since a rising tide lifts all boats, big business will view that as acceptable and simply seek to gain favors after the election, which is when the “outsider” must politely avoid cronyism and simply keep the playing field level, and stay out of the way other than that. No special favors, but not a pain to business.

Oh yeah I’m sure the Left is going to give the right advice on who can defeat their candidate... LOL! This is so childish! What idiot would read this and think we better nominate a lefty in the Republican party to defeat Obama?

This article is complete rubbish! No wonder why Time magazine is hurting for subscribers.
