There can be no nominee without an announced candidate. Here are my choices for the nominee of these five...BEFORE the debate.
1. Cain
2. Pawlenty
3. Santorum
4. Paul
5. Johnson
Cain gives a real world, private sector sensibility. He can also attack Hussein without the race card...
Pawlenty is a two term Republican from a Democrat state. I know he has liabilities, but who DOESN’T?
Santorum is very good on the issues, but I wonder if he has the executive experience for the job.
Ron Paul is GREAT on fiscal responsibility, but I do not believe in isolationism...which is what he seems to embrace
Gary Johnson to me is largely unknown. I have heard he is pro-abortion, though, and that puts him in a bad light with me.
Agree with you on Cain but find Pawlenty too much of a greenie. He does believe in global warming and that type of view is having a horrendous impact on our economy.
