Until and unless palin gets in - we need to defeat romney. He is the worst of the worst. I would take anyone over romney, including rp, gary johnson, etc.
The palin or nothing crowd is going to ensure a romney win if they keep trashing the only one now in the race who can take him out.
Putting up Bachmann as a good alternative appears to me to be more and more of a cult of personality than Palin ever had. Michele (and Rollins) is now saying she's getting Palin supporters? Just another gaffe in a week full of gaffes.
Do you expect the people on FR to fall all over themselves for a candidate who has run nothing, accomplished nothing, and has no substance? No executive experience (congresscritter), no legislative accomplishments, no life experience that would prepare her for the presidency. I mean, what could go wrong with a candidate who gaffes almost every day and has that kind of resume?
