Hillary would get a queens welcome. Unfortunately, Hillary would win then because her MANY, MANY scandals would be ignored.

Her Thighness would get the queens welcome no matter what. That said, while the Drive-By might ignore her previous scandals and lack of any accomplishments, the voters won't. Drive-By always assume the voter are stupid rubes, waiting to be molded by them to vote Dem. The Drive-By has been predicting GOP failure for many years, and have been wrong every time. It is in their lexicon: GOP evil, must fail in next election. Their self-delusion is one of their big weaknesses.

My only concern about Mike is if he has the foreign policy skills. He's done a great job as gov. Mike's done an easily demonstrably MUCH better job than Bill did.

Bingo. I could not have said it better than you.

Unfortunately though, I think this poll will only encourage Newt. He has a short memory why he was forced out as speaker. He should remain in the private sector or he would be a good US representative to the UN.

The reality of who are the significant candidates on both sides is truly sobering. The American people have proved themselves smarter over the past few decades than to pick some sitting senator who has been practicing being a pompous windbag. That said, the reality that hit me was that Newt like Clinton talks too much and like Clinton tries to impress everyone with how smart he is. If Clinton got elected twice maybe there is hope for Newt. He seems to understand the importance of illegal immigration and he also understands that Iran and North Korea are serious threats to which the Red Chinese are offering little help in quelling. As a Republican voter, I do not think that I could go to the polls and vote for Giuliani or McCain. I have never voted for a Democrat for President which would be akin to voting for Giuliani and when I was given the opportunity to vote for a crazy man, I passed on Perot, which would be akin to McCain.

This poll is the dumbest thing I've ever wasted 10 seconds reading and 30 seconds typing about.

I guess Newt's a cinch if he can just keep everybody's name off of the ballot.

Pfftttttttt.

Good News! Newt would be terrific. Of course he's strong on foreign policy, and his past depth of analysis and advocacy on issues like health care reform could steal a march on the Dimocrats wrt to some of their favorable domestic issues.

maybe, I don't know...

If he can't get the southern part of the state to go for him in a big way, the DC 'burbs will hurt him....

With our current and previous presidents both being former governors, it would be tough to make an effective case that would be damaging to Tancredo on that basis. No matter what the looney polls say, foreign policy and wartime benefits the one with the (R) behind his or her name.

That sentiment speaks for a lot of so-called "socons," myself included.

If it came down to McCain and Hillary, I won't vote. They're equally worthless in my eyes.

And Mike Huckabee, a shameful open borders loon, has chances that are tantamount to Tom Tancredo.

The person that wins will be polished in the arts of BS, refined in the school of compromised principles, and as bold in strategy as Uncle Joe on Sundays. IOW, that person will do nothing to advance the cause of liberty, or protect the rights of individuals.

If the person CAN win, they will have long ago lost most of what is great within.

After 10 years as a governor he has as much experience in the forign policy field as any other past president, except maybe Nixon.

If it came down to McCain and Hillary or Guilani and Hillary, I would have to cast my vote against Hillary. The closer we get to the 2008 elections, people will have to remember we must keep Hillary out at all costs. As much as I disagree with McCain and Guiliani on issues, those two combined could not do as much damage to the republican cause as Hillary could. We all need to remember that.
