Real estate mogul Donald Trump is tied for first in the race for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination, according to a new poll of Republicans.
Nineteen percent of Republicans named Trump, who is flirting with a run for the party's presidential nomination, as their top choice for the nomination, according to a CNN/Opinion Research poll released Tuesday. Another 13 percent said Trump was their second choice in a nominee.

Trump scored 10 percent in last month's CNN poll, meaning he effectively doubled his support over the course of a month.

The Donald is not pro-life. He has always been pro-abortion up until the past couple of weeks. Anyone who buys his sudden conversion is a sucker. Read his book “The America We Deserve”, he takes a strong pro-abortion stance.
Ditto! I'm having deja vu all over again. It's 1992 and Ross Perot is about to torpedo the Republicans by splitting the vote...

PS Name recognition alone will not suffice else we could run Smokey the Bear.
You mean Romney?
Because Trump is not who the media wants, trust me.
Wait...so on one thread you’re pissing and moaning that Trump might go third-party, throwing the election to Obama, and on another, you’re saying YOU’D VOTE THIRD PARTY YOURSELF if Trump were the nominee?
Nice.
The media is giving him all the airtime right now. Even if it seems critical, every time you turn the TV on, Trump’s face is there. They are giving him more airtime now that Obama.
They are pimping Romney.Trump is forcing them to give him air time.
If Palin does not run people will still write her name in and we will get Obama.
Whoops. So much for that.

Donald Trump is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN unlike Comrade Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama.
As I said several times, anyone who buys his sudden conversion(sic) the past few weeks is a sucker. He has been a life-long pro-abortion supporter (read his book "The America We Deserve"). He only has a recent conversion(sic) when it was pragmatic for him to be.
It was the ignorant moderate voters who are too stupid to know who they are voting for. Instead, they go by name recognition. In ‘08, we had 5 other candidates who most of the ignorant moderates could not even name with the list right in front of them.
It is the same truth that elected Obama. The Democrats had only 2 choices and the moderates/independents were making a statement against the GOP and Bush.
And somehow you're drawing a parallel between a billionaire who will draw 10 million votes away from the GOP, and one guy who's going to vote another choice because he doesn't agree with either Trump or Obama? Really??
Please.
Trump will be the nominee and our next President.
He will take the alien usurper out.
He will be a better President than Jorge Bush.
Yeah? Which one? Pro- or anti-gun Trump? Pro-life or pro-abortion Trump? Pro-ObamaCare or anti-ObamaCare Trump? The bully Trump who tries to usurp neighbors' property for limo parking, or the new Trump of the People?
It’s a set up.
It has set up written all over it. Come on folks, wake up! All of a sudden a man with money explodes all over the landscape spewing the conspiracy theories that the left believes define the Tea Party, most of them with negative connotations in the eyes of the elite. He addresses the “birther” issues, he avows that he is “pro-life.” He alludes to “other” exposes lurking in the shadows. And here we are “grasping at straws” because we think we can’t win any other way. It’s the same old story and the media/government elites play us like ancient fiddles. They know exactly how to turn our plans upside down and we fall for it like Charlie Brown.
Face it people, we have only one hope for the future of America and she is sitting in Alaska. Pray for America.
I applaude for the statements that Trump made in the past few weeks.
Only ones I have seen with his chutzpah are Bachman and Palin.
