“My guess is that Romney will be our next President.”
Romney cannot get past the GOP primary process. I actually think that Huckabee stands a better chance than Romney of getting the GOP nomination. However, I think Palin could beat either of them in a primary.
I’m trying to be logical and not biased (not actually possible), but of the three Palin, Romney, and Huckabee. I believe that Palin has the best chance of getting the nominatin, but I think that in a general election that Huckabee is more likely to win of the three.
Although, I think folks need to keep watching Jindal. He might be a very good pick.
In my post, I stated that Palin will choose not to run.
If that is the case, then Romney is more of a player than Huckabee.
Giulani could surface again, but the primary process front loaded with Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina he is taken out before he can get started.
With the economy going to be the major issue of 2012, then Romney can sell himself as understanding private sector job creation which will be the buzz words of 2012.
Sorry but RomneyCare is one of his Achilles heel.
Huck has a “Willie Horton” problem.
“With the economy going to be the major issue of 2012, then Romney can sell himself as understanding private sector job creation which will be the buzz words of 2012.”
Romney can never overcome the very strong evangelical base of the GOP. He can’t win the primary. Unless Palin runs, or some dark horse comes up, Huckabee will be the GOP nominee. I know he isn’t liked here on FR, but freepers are minority and too heavily weighted with libertarians that. Most conservative Southerners are not going to vote for Romney...for many reasons.
Be honest. Have you EVER heard Romney cogently explain how to create private sector jobs? I dare you to provide examples of him explaining how he specifically would do it from the dates of Nov. 2007 to the present. And then add up the jobs he eliminated/sent overseas and subtract this number from the jobs he “created” buying companies and cutting payrolls and report to us the answer. Romney is probably the worst candidate in a couple of generations. He’s the 2nd generation of 4 generations of trust fund Americans(nothing against that but he’s never faced any economic hardships, he’s never really had to work for a living,by the sweat of his brow, probably never changed a flat tire or had callouses on his hands). Has he changed his mind about not agreeing with the Reagan economic policies of the ‘80’s and the value of tax cuts in spurring economic growth/job creation during Reagan era? I will spend tens of thousands to defeat him for what he has done to Sarah Palin and for him allowing/standing by as the establishment GOP beta-males/girls have attacked /denigrated her from Sept. 1, 2008 to the present.
His RINOism will sink him with the Tea Parties.
The meme 'Romneycare == Obamacare' will sink him with everyone else.
Cheers!
So she's spending tons of money building a National network and an online presence, endorsing candidates all over the country, and unleashing daily broadsides against Obama all for her own amusement?
I think not. The lady has a carefully calculated plan and it leads up to a Presidential run. Heck she's telegraphed it all in the last chapters of Going Rogue, but nobody wants to take her at her word, which is as good as golden.
