IF Dobbs were to run as an Indy, I’d suspect he was somehow put up to it by an Axelrod or Rahm type of guy.
Has he managed a company, lead a military unit, etc???

Someone like say Michelle Bachman.
I’m thinking that Hillary is going to beat Obama in the primary.
I wonder what the poll numbers are for Hillary versus the leading republicans.
I doubt it. I've been getting some emails over the last several days that he's interested in either running for Senate or President. Polls like this would probably cause him to decide to run for Senate.
Please lets nudge Lou into a race for the Senate—We could use him there. If there is to be a 3rd party they should stick to races for congress and Senate. BUT, if the RINO/GOP dismisses Sarah P. and she should go 3rd Party—I will go with her! She isn’t Ross Perot (But he had some good ideas) and she could lead a vital 3rd Party program. Lots of time before 2012.
Interesting how Sarah only trains Obama by 3 percent. I remember not too long ago when she trailed him by as much as 15 points. She has narrowed the gap
What is significant is the fact that Sarah Palin is only 3% points behind Obama despite a 24hr 7 day a week attacks by the media for 15 months. If she is this high, they have every reason to fear her.
We should know soon, after all we are down to only 3 years of campaigning to go...
The Perot fiasco was an interesting phenomenon. I see it as the first significant upheaval of conservatism against RINOism.
It was a harbinger of our exasperation, showing how hungry many people are for change. Much like support for Hoffman in NY-23.
Too bad RNC et.al. never got the message. Give us a true candidate and the passion is there. Go Palin!!!
It’s iffy if Palin will actually run as early as 2012, but she could do wonders as THE party leader. Steele is not too bad, but just think how Palin would kick some a$$!!!
. One of my biggest worries about the 2012 presidential election will be that the Dems are likely to clandestinely field a fifth-column candidate (masquerading perhaps even to the RIGHT of the GOPer), and do a ross perot on us; or will give covert support to a third party candidate who just wants to see himself in the papers (sort of like an arsonist). Could Mister Dobbs might be just such a person?
This third party stuff is pure poison, and it is why I have no kind feelings (and will never, ever forgive) Mister Buchanan for his egomanic run in 2000.)
.
Palin, Palin, Palin... nobody but Palin. ( I wanted to say “Palin or Bust”, but I wasn’t sure how that would sound)
Why not both?
;>)
I like to play the what if game on that. What if Perot doesn't run, and Bush is re-elected in 92. Who wins in 96?
Things change of course, but Dole still may have been the R nominee. Who would have been the D nominee? Ds don't seem to favor loser candidates, so Clinton might have been out in 96, so maybe Gore? Both Gore and Dole would put Sominex out of business, but I think Gore wins that. Then does Gore win re-election in '00? Depends how bad he screwed up the country, though the power of incumbency is worth a lot. So who wins in 04?
I guess you can go on and on. Everything changes with a different president, different policies that please or anger the elctorate. Heck, if Bush had won in 92, I don't think the Rs would have taken over the House in 94. A lot of good came out of that.
