MITT ROMNEY was the big winner tonight!

Which conservative is going to stop him in NH, FLA, super-Tuesday? Until MITT is stopped, all this debate is academic. The RINO monopoly will continue ...
‘88 Dole vs. Bush (RINO delight)
‘96 Dole vs. Lamar (Gramm, Forbes, and Buchanan got steamrolled)
‘00 Bush vs. McCain
‘08 McCain vs. Romney

Frankly, if you tell somebody the CAIN’12 campaign is a pipe dream, they won’t believe you. So let them dream.

Cain: never won an election. No government experience. Trying to start from ZERO to winning a Majority in 12 months ... he will succeed where KEMP, FORBES, FRED THOMPSON fell flat!

But, I know a pipe dream when I see it. Looks like the RINO monopoly will continue. (Do I hear Daniels vs. Romney, anyone? (The 2012 version of “RINO showdown”.)

Who is your pipe dream candidate?

From tonight's debates I see Romney is not the worst candidate in the field. I don't think he'll be the nominee, maybe not even the establishment choice.

His second-place spot in 2008 and his bankroll make him a serious candidate but he needs to win people over who went for McCain back then and that won't be so easy. He many issues weighing him down in the primary from Fill-Flops to RomneyCare to Mormonism.

I'm not finding much credibility in the "RINO" attacks on Daniels. Most of that's from alarmists and agitators. I want to see and hear more from him. A lot more. I'd take a fiscally responsible version of W if that's what he is.

I'm looking at everybody and not waiting for some anointed one to come off the sidelines to save us all.

A pipe dream is for someone looking for the perfect conservative to come along who will win over all the people while he or she slices up the liberals and the media and sweeps the RINOs out with the trash. This perfect conservative who will knock Romney out in the first primary better show his face soon or forever be a coward. Because I see nothing but RINOs around Cain right now.

I’ll take an honest conservative over a RINO any day.

What?

Palin would probably dwarf all of them. What does Mitt have that Pawlenty doesn’t btw. “oh, Mitt’s not running, Pawlenty looks ok”.

If Palin’s up there, it’s a much bigger story, a much different situation than if Mitt’s there. Mitt’s only fame, really, comes from doing this 4 years ago and doing fairly well. Mitt probably won’t lose Mormons to Pawlenty, but the average RINO could accept Pawlenty as a reasonable RINO. Romney has a lot of supporters who basically view him as a reasonable choice. Pawlenty could easily be seen as a reasonable choice, and if Romney isn’t there. Romney’s supporters don’t necessarily love Romney.

Cain never won an election? Well hell, scratch him off. We all know career politicians are the only ones who care about the citizens of our nation.

LMAO Are you sure you’re on the right forum?
