If nutty little Ron Paul can run double-digits in Iowa.. who knows? The Republicans are splintering anyway.
Hopefully, Nutty Little Ron Paul will be drooling on himself in a retirement home come 2016. I’m very tired of his act.
The Republican field is underwhelming, to say the least. Once more, conservatives are faced with a “hold your nose and vote” November option. I, for one am sick of it. I am also sick of what will follow after my posting this: “Okay, so what will you do—vote 3rd party or not at all and see their guy get in?” I am sick of it.
What Palin is saying, is what many conservatives are thinking—”Please let someone I can ENTHUSIASTICALLY support jump into this thing. Let someone I trust to be an “outside the beltway conservative AFTER the election get into this thing. In short, let someone who I believe can actually SAVE the country get in there. Mr. and Mrs. Conservative, you know you don’t really see that person yet, do you.
That this was construed as Palin “dangling HER name, I think is reading into things. I think she is really saying, “Sigh! No one there I see right now who gets the juices flowing.”
Remember how blah we all felt about McCain until Sarah got in there? Well, that’s the feeling we’re all waiting to feel right now...AND DON’T!
Ya know, I’ve been going that way myself. Moving Santorum and Bachman to the side, of the other four candidates I think Paul would do the least damage to the country. The RINO candidates—Gingrich, Romney and Perry—are beholden to the demrat party one way or another.
I think a significant number of nonMarxist dems will find any one of them fairly easy to vote for—and they will. Onada will hold the white Marxist (including union voters) and black vote. That’ll get him to around 30%. He can’t win with that. IMHO it’s conceivable Paul could win with someting like 45-50% of the Pubbie/conservative vote.
Personally, I think we will have a brokered Pubbie/conservative convention. Also, I believe Palin remains a wild card. She has a natural ability to generate excitement and communicate.
In the absense of any other info I think the remaining prmary months will be largely meaningless as far as determining who the GOP candidate will be. It must obvious even to the three RINO amigos there is no ground swell of support for any of them. This will not change for genuine Tea Party conservative voters.
If we can’t get a conservative on the GOP ticket we may have to go with Paul—in lieu of a write in campaign for Bachman, Santorun or Palin. This will be very viable as long as we hold the House and gain the Senate with a predominance of Tea Party conservatives.
Despite saying the goofiest things and being a libertarian, I believe Paul is an American first. He will focus on securing the country by fixing the economy and making the US the overwhelmingly strongest militry power on earth.
Rhe House and Senate can then focus on undoing the Marxist disaster and returning the country to Capitalism—the most successful ecomomic model the world has ever seen.
