With an 88% Democrat government, I would think that people would be flocking to such a Marxist Utopian paradise.

That's a great description of Hillary and wonderful writing! I'd say it's fabulous but then some would suspect I've lost my Primordial Manliness. :-)

...If they choose to run against Hillary Clinton, they’ll lose. If they choose to run against Senator Clinton, they’ll win hands down.




Don't worry about Romney. If he gets the Republican nomination, he'll know what to do about Hillary.
BTW, did you happen to catch Hillary on "The View" just before Christmas. She was planting the seed to not only to be the first woman elected to be President but also the first Mom to be elected. Yes, you heard me. The Republicans are running against Mom. So, in effect Hillary is saying, don't you dare attack a lady and don't even think about smacking Mom.

Rudy Giuliani has many problems that will hinder his chances of securing the GOP nomination. Rudy is a liberal and a big government Republican. A self professed Rockefeller Republican. Rudy has always favored gun control and an assault weapons. He's been a career long supporter of abortion on demand and has opposed partial birth abortion. Rudy is pro amnesty and has promoted special rights for gays. Can't see conservative Republicans being hoodwinked into voting for Rudy in the GOP primaries. Rudy can't run from his political liberalism and his liberal record as Mayor of NYCity. You're right. Rudy`s campaign is DOA.

Thanks for the ping.

Rudy is a corrupt, gun grabbing control freak with the ethics of a guinea pig.

Romney is not perfect, but at least he has at least 30 IQ points on Giussolini.

IMHO, of those announced or just about to,

Romney is #1

Rudy is #2

McCrazy's not even on the list.

Don't know enough about Duncan Hunter to rank him.

I'd really like to see a true conservative like Mark Sanford* make a run.

* Full disclosure: He's my governor.

I dont see why people think Hillary will be a good, even unbeatable, candidate. She's shrewd politicaly, and has tried to positon herself in the center, thats smart, but in reality she's a leftist, radical feminist, and is actually pretty terrible on the stump and is not a very likable person.

I agree about Giuliani though, if he can get through the primaries. I think there's evidence that he can. People are now petty aware that "he's liberal on social issues" and yet he still leads in many polls. I dont think people care about the social issues as much as they use to.

I hope that Republicans and the cute little rats remember that the Presidents job is lead the country and act as the Commander-in-Chief. Mitt and Rudy have done that, Hillorat hasn`t.

She will never, ever get MEN to vote for her. I am not talking about Rush Limbaugh's "New Castrati". I am talking about Normal Men.

She will, but not the men you are thinking. She will get the college crowd of libs to vote for her, who do you think voted in all the RATS this time? If they can listen to some of the current "music", her voice isn't any worse than that!!!

I see him as nothing more than a passing fancy for the mainstream media. If it becomes evident that he poses a real threat to Sen. Hillary Clinton he’ll suddenly find himself under a withering fire of criticism and he won’t have the vaguest notion buried in scandal and dirt and he will know exactly where it’s all coming from.

Giuliani/Romney would be a powerhouse , outside the box ticket, and wouldn't fade at the end. After 8 years of Rudy, Romney as veep would be a household name, ready to be elected. At the present, Romney is not a national figure.

So let’s accept the fact that whoever the GOP nominee is, he’ll be facing Hillary Clinton.

Currently, I'm betting on a Clinton-Obama ticket. However, I've been wrong frequently before. ;-)

Romneycare won in 2006, Hillarycare lost in 1993.

He did get the health insurance passed, but I don't know that I'd be trumpeting it as a success when it won't be implemented for another 6 months...

The point is when you argue on the merits you can win. When you argue on personalities, you lose.

Makes sense to me. Arguing on the merits is rational and adult - arguing on personalities just makes you look petty.

So far Romney is my favorite of the candidates under consideration. How does the MSM like him, though?

Back on April 12, 2006, Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney signed into law an act to provide health insurance to virtually all citizens of Massachusetts and did it without raising taxes.


Why didn't he also provide everyone with a new Mercedes by ordering them to buy one as well.

You got that right. I strongly dislike liberals but I loathe communists and Rockefeller Republicans.

The more I read of Michael Reagan, the more I think he inherited his brains, as well as his values, from his father. He may be adopted, but he's the real McCoy.

Ronald Jr., on the other hand, seems to only have gotten the recessive genes in the brains department.

Mark Sanford would be great and my first choice too. Is there any hint on whether he is interested. At the very least, I'd like to see him send Lindsey Graham into retirement. Sanford and Coburn would be a superb one-two punch in the senate. I like Jeff Sessions a lot also, but he is just too dang nice.

"Romney is I think a really great candidate."

Never mind that you are from Massachusetts.

Here's an earlier thread about the mass exodus:

You'll see it accelerate under our new liberal governor.
