>> We have idiots running the GOP.
You’re quite generous with the complements today. You must be in a good mood.
But let’s be honest: idiots would do a FAR better job than what’s currently in charge of the Stupid Party, at every level (national, state, local).
ouch
Most in the GOP aren’t much different that the Dems. Maybe it really is time for a third party. I consider myself a conservative, not a republican.
By leftists and RINO pros. Because they go along to admit: Among Republicans polled however, 50 percent view her favorably.
Hmm. Never heard of Pawlenti, Barbour, or Huntsman, and only small minorities (8 and 9%) like Romney or Huckabee.
Could it possibly be that there is some bias here? Everyone has heard of Sarah Palin. And at least 50% like her, despite all the negative press and the no doubt careful selection of those polled.
Everybody is “hijacking” every party these days. The tea party has the votes and a reason to vote. They own what they bring to the table ...which is a lot more than the establishment offers. Trump isn’t a Republican, so he doesn’t count.
Sure, I've heard of him, but all those ol'boys in Utah were all in favor of important cheap labor from Mexico.
No one has spoken up to get Huntsman off that hook so we have to assume he's an "open borders" fanatic like the others.
I am not sure why anyone would put Huntsman on the poll. How about some of our better known Freepers? I'm sure Lazmataz could poll as high as Huntsman or Pawlenty!
The Republican party is not going down just because no one knows these two guys ~ they probably don't know each other for that matter.
Well I get where that opinion comes from. Writes poorly for a "professor". As a "decider" in the next election, the only party is the Tea Party at this point as far as I'm concerned.
How likely am I to believe a poll commissioned by two organizations as totally dishonest as The New York Times and CBS News? Not at all.
As sophisticated as polling is today, you can get any result you want, including a survey of Republicans, by surveying the “right” age groups and Zip Codes.
born June 14, 1946 in Queens, New York, NY (Meets the Jus Soli Requirement)
Parents were
Frederick Christ Trump, born October 11, 1905 in Queens, NY, died June 1999 in Queens, NY
Mary Ann MacLeod, born May 10, 1912 in SCOTLAND, died August 7, 2000 in Queens, NY. Arrived in US October 5, 1935. Naturalized as a US Citizen March 10, 1942.
Both parents were US Citizens at the time of his birth (Meets the Jus Sanguinis Requirement)
Donald Trump is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN unlike Comrade Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama.
There, that's better.
Who did they hijack GOP from - the neocons?
Whining Rhinos!
A little highjacking would be good for the GOP.
The Republican Leadership is trying really hard to Repeat the election of 1996!!!!
No. Rather, Hillary, has Donald Trump trying to hijack and split the Tea Party movement as Perot 2, because the Tea Party movement is overthrowing the the Republican Party, because the Republican Party is RINO, and the RINOs provide the sabotaging, backstabbing, traitorous candidates the Rats (in general) and Hillary (in particular) need to run against (like, for example, John McCain) in order to win - and can't win without (as the Tea Party movement well knows).
I am not going to vote for another turkey who looks, sounds and acts like a democrat!
The GOP doesn't want to make any concessions at all to the conservative base, and I'm tired of making concessions to liberals!.
What would we expect from a Bush alumnus but a condemnation of anything movement that threatens the Republican elite and the Beltway mentality.
“We have idiots running the GOP.”
We do. They need to resolve their cranial-rectal issues and get solidly behind Sarah Palin.
I believe she’s taken a bit of a break from the public eye so she can remake her image in the coming months. Based on this poll, she should easily win the Republican nomination.
The hard part will be overcoming the ceaselessly nasty and biased press coverage - however if anyone has ever had the courage, common sense and leadership to do it, I’m convinced it’s Sarah. She will most likely come out with all guns blazing! (For the morons out there - that is to be taken metaphorically, not literally.)
Palin ‘12!!!
