There is a long time to go and many bumps in the road before it is decided. You surely can't be serious about trump!

I have always thought, and still do, that Palin is chomping at the bit to get in there and repeat those same 5 lines over and over in one non-stop 5-minute string, saying nothing.

She has her good points, but really gets on my nerves when she yammers in that high pitched voice.

Sarah Palin is doing enough for the country without being in the Whitehouse. I doubt she'd run, but she's definitely got my vote. and I am absolutely serious about Trump!

Want four more years of Obama? Get behind Palin or Trump.

Guest 12-04-2011 11:16 PM

What are you concerns about Trump? Maybe it is time to get someone in the Whitehouse who isn't bend on a career in politics and has already made a name for himself...Wouldn't that make you wonder if he might have more pure motives, like saving his country?

He is a brilliant self-promoter, who would make an excellent dictator, but president? Not so much! Way too many personal negatives, and he is on the record with way too many looney ideas and proposals, which I am not taking the time to link - but they're out there. Not to mention - can you see him putting his assets in a blind trust!!!!! Palin found the governorship of Alaska to be too poorly compensated to serve her full term, and the presidency doesn't pay as well as her "speeches".

The next president will be either Romney or Obama. The choice is yours.

Probably true.

I don't agree with the author's theory regarding Gingrich. I've been saying what he's saying about Romney for months, but he loses me when it comes to Gingrich. He probably also thought Rick Scott would lose Florida to GOP Establishment darling, endorsed by Jeb Bush, Charlie Crist.

Enough voters are going to gravitate to Gingrich's confident, knowledgeable and well defined positions to propel him to the end. I don't believe Newt's going to make a huge mistake at this time. That doesn't mean the left wing media won't make something up out of whole cloth, as they did Herman Cain, but Newt is smart enough to challenge that.

Although I still have my hopes with Romney, IF newt does not make a foo paw, he will likely be the nominee and I will have no problem with that. There are just too many with negative opinions of Mitt that are hoping for any alternative finalist.

Guest 12-05-2011 07:57 AM

Palin? West? Trump? Oh please, please, please if that could only happen. :laugh:

Chances of Romney Winning the Nomination - 46.2
Chances of Gingrich Winning the Nomination - 34.4


Chances of Obama winning reelection - 50.2

I think many have to remember back in 2007/2008 when Obama was obvious by his lack of being front and center. One year from the election I do not believe there would have been many who would have bet on Obama being not only nominated but able to win the election.

Obama is testimony to stranger things have indeed happened!!!

Jimmy Carter was probably a much more improbable nominee.
