After all, 21/2 years is still a long ways off. All one has to do is to think back to 2006 when Barack Obama was barely on the radar screen, to realize just how premature this poll is. In fact, in August of 2007 Obama was trailing Hillary Clinton 25%-45% (-20), in a C.B.S News poll. Get it? As for Sarah Palin, I very seriously doubt that she will, in fact, be running for the presidency. And if she did, I am absolutely convinced that she wouldn't stand a chance in being nominated-PERIOD! In fact, you can, for all practical purposes, remove her from the list of viable presidential candidates. Beyond Palin, it's any one's guess as to who will ultimately emerge as the front runner for the Republican Party's nomination. But I will say this; who ever it is that finally gets nominated, Republicans and conservatives alike will almost unanimously coalesce in support that candidate. Count on it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-3276091613956696722010-05-14T14:32:22.718-05:002010-05-14T14:32:22.718-05:00Obama loses to "someone else"

What if the Republicans actually find a candidate people like? There are a number of dark horses that people don't know. There probably won't be one with Palin's charisma, Huckabee's sense of humor, Gingrich's smarts, and Romney financial expertise. But then no one knew all that Obama had to sell America in May 2006.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11928675187803337574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-6896052011816458832010-05-12T12:38:26.378-05:002010-05-12T12:38:26.378-05:00Gary Johnson?????Gary Johnson?????Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
