Do you or anyone seriously think that Bachmann or Cain have a chance of beating Romney and Obama? This is not a "beauty contest" (as in who is "the most conservative that we like"), the fate of the nation is at stake.

You've got that right. There are 127 posts, but none offer any evidence or analysis that demonstrates the candidate they like can win.

Defeating Obama is serious business. It isn't any gimme, where any candidate the GOP puts up will prevail. FR beauty contests aren't going to select the most effective candidate. It is more likely to select a losing candidate.

Right. And the one who can win (according to the smartest GOP analists (not a misspelling)) all pick Romney as the only one who can defeat Obama. No thank you ma’am. I’ll go third party thankyouverymuch. Pray the TEA party goes real.
