I am afraid the Bachmann chance (slim as it was) got the death blow when all the stuff about changing homosexuals to straight came out. As I have said here before, I don't see anyone that I would go knocking on doors and putting up signs for. I fear we will choose one of those "exciting" candidates and give away another election just as we did last year in the primaries. Some of our republican front runners just have too much baggage for everyone to take them seriously. If we push it we will be the ones giving Obamma a 2nd term.I do believe congresswoman michele bachmann will when the nomination if governor rick perry doesn't run. But if governor perry gets into it, then I believe it will be a tough battle between the two for the nomination. Bachmann has some solid leadership and backbone qualities about I personally like in a president. Governor perry has one hell of a background, he's running a very strong economy in texas plus he has military experience. I said long ago on a few political forums prior to obama getting elected that if obama got elected, it was going to be a major mistake and we are going to be sorry. If obama gets re-elected then we are going to be forever sorry with no point of return. We just have to keep changing these guys until we get somebody in there that's gonna do something. But either bachmann or governor perry are the best choices among the GOP candidates.
You may be right on this one. I would change to independent, but I like voting in primaries.Romney will get the nomination but the TP won't back him in the generals even to beat Obama (they've already proven that they'll sabotage an election by running a TP candidate independently) and why are the Dems going to vote for a Republican version of Obama when they can just keep the original? So Romney wins by a healthy margin then ends up an also-ran. Romney will have a harder time of winning if Perry jumps in but he'll sill win and Perry can kiss his political career goodbye. He'd be better off getting his message out while backing Romney then making a run in '16 when Obama becomes a non-issue.
I just don't think Huntsman can live up to the expectations. I have only seem him a couple of times and was unimpressed. Kind of like bread and no jam.I've got my eye on Huntsman, though I don't know a lot about him yet. He's the one Obama is worried about and Obama is pretty smart.
Are Republican primary voters smart too? We'll find out...
He should have never been in to start.Well we can scratch Tim Pawlenty from the list- he dropped out already.
