The only ones on crack as those who think Palin is going to get 60% of the vote in a republican primary with Romney, Huckabee, Jon Huntsman, Johnson, etc. also running.
Crack smokers support candidates who want to legalize drugs. Even on sites which explain their dedication to conservatism on the home page.
Even socialist Romney, whose health care enacted in Massachusetts mirrors Obamacare isn't one on a level of liberalism with Gary Johnson.
Romney has proven that with all the Money in the world, he can't buy the election. I personally believe he would be a moderate and probably excellent fiscal president, but he will not win. I think people don't trust him. His previous pro abortion stance and MA universal health are a millstone around his neck. Couple that with his religion and it is just too easy to find someone else to vote for. Too slick by half for most peoples taste.
Jon Huntsman is also an excellent business man and would probably make even a more effective and better president than Romney. However he lacks name recognition, and has the same problem with religion as Romney. Mormonism is considered a cult by a large percentage of Americans. It is just a fact that many people would have aproblem voting for a Mormon
Huckabee is an incredible campaigner because he is a natural politician. People like him. He is good in the debates and has a happy warrior outlook. He suffers from a money problem. I am not sure how good of a president he would be. I can only state that he would be a damn sight better than the present resident.
Gary Johnson can not win the nomination. He is Pro-Abortion, Open borders, Drug decriminalization. He would be out before the Iowa caucuses. Primary voters are true believers. They are the strong social conservatives. If he changes his stance he will be like Romney he will look like a flip flopper. He would be branded the ultimate DIABLO RINO by every right winger and commentator in the party. He is a dead horse.
Palin has the name recognition and the ability to raise tons of cash. Every conservative will be busting open their kids piggy banks to send her as much as the law will allow. However, she has serious problems with how she was eviscerated by the press.She would have to fight tough and dirty. She would have to pull out all the stops and make absolutely no mistakes. She has been unjustly branded as a simpleton. This is the cry from the far left, the media, and the country clubbers in her own party. Of course that is what they said about Reagan, GWB, and Eisenhower. The where all so stupid they ended up winning two terms.
I have no clue who will get the nomination, but Palin has at least as good of a chance as any of the other known entities in the party right now.
Regardless, I will strongly support anybody that can dislodge this Statist Scumbag from the office. We have to. four years of this jacka$$ will be a catastrophe, eight years will be the death of the Republic.
