Mark Steyn says he has a soft spot for Tim Pawlenty and believes he may be the last man standing to challenge Obama in 2012. He also says Newt wont be President and that Trump isnt conservative and trashes his demonization of China as the single source of all that ails us.
As for Mike Huckabee and Sarah Palin, Steyn says he wouldnt advise them to enter the field of 2012 GOP candidates. He says Sarah Palin would make a better king-maker and Huckabee should stick with his successful Fox News show.
The Bushes really like Daniels.
Mark, you’re brilliant, and I love your words.
One small thing: We don’t have Kings. Or even Queens.
The problem is that, with the weak, effete, Republican elite, they can't lead when they do win. You don't have to look any further than Crybaby Boehner to see that this is true.
Not.
I agree. I think she’s a very smart lady and a good person, but sadly most men I know wouldn’t vote for her. And I’ve seen a lot of negative remarks about her on various blogs from mostly men. Not sure why, except maybe they think it’s a “man’s job”.
I agree..IOW, if she doesn't run, its because she knows she can't win. There can be no other explanation.
Cain has no idea what to do,should he win, which he won't,so would be as bad as Obama....but in a different way.
Newt can't win, but should he, we already know that he can't handle power, has some ridiculously stupid ideas, so would also make a hash out of it, though at least he does know things work.
Trump? Is he in or out> Who knows?
TPaw and Daniels are milktoasts and boring, Daniels stinks re Sharia and his comments about about social stuff, though he did defund Planned Parenthood. Condi for VEEP? Pawlenty is a yawner,never even tried to stop the Franken mess. Beltway GOP backed,which is NOT a good thing. Better than Barry? Not by much.
Ron Paul? WORSE THAN OBAMA !
The other Libertarian, Johnson? Also worse than Obama.
Huck? I don't think he'll run.
There is not one of those candidates that would be worse than Obama... not one. Also there is not one of those candidates that I would support in the primary, but if I have to I will vote for whomever is running against the socialist fraud.
Looks to me like you like and admire Obama.
Why not at least attempt to answer my post, which made a whole lot of sense?
I agree. If she doesn’t run she’s yesterday’s phenomenon. The ‘kingmaker’ meme is patronizing.
What kind of reply is that?
Long before Dinesh D'Souza wrote his book, I had little Barry nailed....in the same way.
What I did, in my post, was to show what the reality is and what we're all up against.
Beating Obama won't be easy, but Palin can; none of the others, already in/toying with the idea, can't.
So what if she loses......it's the trying that counts,as it is now or never for her. So if she doesn't run, who cares what she has to say?
Never mind, there's NO chance he'll get the nomination, but that one example, blows your entire post to bits.
Many on that list, as I've shown, are as bad or worse than Obama and believe me, Obama is,IMNSHO, a monster!
Exactly so !
To 149 - Uh-oh
Yes, a rather impolitic post, to say the least.
Pawlenty thought “Minnesota nice” would guarantee a fair and accurate recount. Thanks for Senator Franken. Lightweight.
That doesn't count the Blue Dogs who support Tea Party's goals, but who shy from the candor required to thus label themselves with polsters.
Might be over 70%.
Bottom line, GOP + Tea = way over 50%, and that's all they need for a slaughter in Nove '12. Factor in that the GO/Tea will be far more energized for this cycle than the disenfranchised Obots. Include the fact that no GOP candidate can win without Tea Party support, and that the vast majority of Tea Party voters represent the strong core of Palin's most rabid base, et voila!
I win, and you're a runny poopy pants booger.
8^D
If you truly hate the having Obama and his minions in power... after the primary and the smoke has cleared from the GOP battleground... you would crawl on your bloodied knees to support the candidate left standing to unseat this pretender.
