Predictions for 2012 Republican Presidential Candidates?

[Bloodshot Scott]

What do you all think? Have a favorite? A list of front runners? Those that you would hate to see run?

The nutbags at this site list Palin as #1 :

CBS has a nice list of possibles: http://www.cbsnews.com/2300-250_162-10004016-13.html


I think formidable front runners include Pawlenty, Thune, Patreus, Gingrich, Romney, Barbour, and Daniels, among others. From that list I see Pawlenty roasting Obama in debates. Pawlenty has also done some solid work as commander in chief of Minnesota. Therefore, at this point, I will predict Pawlenty.

And dear God, if they put up another Bush (Jeb) I will seriously throw up.

I'm just going to predict Palin, not because I think she will be the nominee, but because I can see Americans being dumb enough to nominate her.

It'd be cool if Romney gave it another run

 

[pool_hustler]

They all suck.
Every one of them.
Especially Palin.
I'd like to see someone I can respect emerge from the GOP garbage heap by 2012, but I'm not holding my breath.

I am going alomg with Palin.

1 ) After Bush Jr. got the job, everybody can

2 ) She is the top runner for the Tea Part, and the Republicans must keep them under check

3 ) If there is a field of several candidates, a majority can be as low as 30% - and after that, there is no real predection who teams with whom

For the Democrats it will probably Obama again

Patraeus would be awesome. So would Gingrich.

Trident

 

[robbied196]

Same shit, different asshole.

 

[vodkazvictim]

Jebus.

 

[Ace Bandage]

Huckabee and Romney should be the front runners. Paul and Pawlenty are pretty far back from them. I won't vote for Palin, so I'm not even mentioning her. I've heard fellow Hoosier Mike Pence as a candidate as well.

 

[titsrock]

None of them have a chance. Whomever it is will be a "centrist" Republican because the GOP is about to undergo the kind of infighting that will tear it apart for the next 2 years. The Corporate Hasbeen GOP'rs versus the New Skool Teabaggers...it will be tasty to watch these two factions claw at each other publicly.

I think a REAL LIBERAL might challenge Obama. I don't see a DINO like Evan Bayh getting much pub. His post-election piece in the NYT pretty much read like it was written by Karl Rove

Me 4 prez in 012

 

[Bloodshot Scott]

None of them have a chance.

You actually believe that? BO's ratings have consistently gone down. If you want to make yourself believe that, have at it. He's likely to be re-elected, yes, but I wouldn't go so far as to say there is not going to be a formidable opponent.

I'm just going to predict Palin, not because I think she will be the nominee, but because I can see Americans Republicans being dumb enough to nominate her.

Fixed and true.

They'll have passed legislation by then to allow the Governator to take a shot at the big chair...
