Is the Door Closed on Palin? No way. There's plenty of room for both Palin and Perry in the Republican primary field. As a matter of fact, I think they'll make a great team. Two conservative Governors from our two largest energy producing states. It's an unbeatable combo. IMO. Palin-Perry 2012! Bring it on!

The problem is that if they run against each other in the primaries, then neither of them will win the nomination. It will go to the liberal because of all the cross over votes from independents and democrats.

In those states with open primaries, the democrats will go with Romney and in winner take all primaries, like California (which has the most delegates) if there are two strong conservatives sucking votes from each other, then neither of them will get the most votes.

I'm sure Romney is hoping that Perry, Palin and Bachmann all cancel each other out. Then we will have McCain II.

If we end up with Romney because Perry, Palin, and Bachmann cancel each other out, then shame on them. If they can’t get together in a room and agree to push just one candidacy, then they are part of the problem.

I guarantee you that I will not vote for Romney or any other pro-abortion candidate.

The Constitution Party candidate will get my vote.
