Really? Jon Kerry is the go-to guy for boring candidates, and he won the nomination over a guy who famously got a little too excited. I can't imagine that a great many people were excited by Jon McCain, either, another primary-winner. Nor do I think Pawlenty is any less exciting than either George Bush. When/if people realize that voting for Pawlenty could be the best chance they have at putting a conservative in the White House, they'll start getting excited, regardless of the candidate himself. I actually think Mitch Danliels has a lot more to lose in terms of having absolutely no charisma; from what I can tell he has even less than Pawlenty.
really? i assumed it worked like the stock market - with some long investors and some short jumpy ones. what is Intrade's record?
Palin never declared herself a candidate or formed an exploratory committee When/if she does, she's out as a paid contributor.
Moderator's Warning: |
Haymarket and Reverend. This isn't the basement. The forum is not your private battle ground where you can wage your personal battle wherever you wish. I'm glad to see one of you have at least moved beyond your little feud and got back on topic. I suggest that after this point both of you continue in that fashion, because if it returns to the off topic back and forth action will be taken. Also, this will be the last time I preempt such action in a thread with a general warning. You both have been warned far enough about your feuding. I'd suggest, in the future, if you dislike the little extras that one or the other says you bite your tongue and stick to the topic, because your ability to lightly address it and stay primarily on topic has seemed to be non-existant. |
I will be happy to answer the questions about the topic but will not jump at your bait to rip into fellow posters or make this about you.
Which candidates on the list are not true belivers?
Trump believes only in himself or whatever he feels at that point in time he needs to profess belief in to get over.
Romney is probably less of the right wing True Believer than the others on the list and probably fails the criteria test.
Pawlenty would not have been placed in that category a couple of years ago but now I have no idea if he is or is not. Time will tell.
Rick Perry
Hey Mac! Hope you are enjoying Spring! I can't tell if you are kidding here or not so I'll just ask, do you really think Rick Perry will win the Republican nomination?
Hey Cat, getting rained out.
I think it likely....Good record in Texas, solidly conservative....looks the part. I think if he throws in he has a good chance.
New numbers for May.
Cain's 1st place for top pick. 3rd place for most electable. tied for 1st for second choice.

Let me go on record now: There is virtually no chance that a party whose recent nominees have included people like John McCain, George W. Bush, and Bob Dole is going to nominate the CEO of Godfather's Pizza to be their presidential candidate.

Who do you think will win the Republican nomination in 2012? (Not who you WANT to win.)
You don't think it hurts the credibility of the poll that they have several people listed and chosen who aren't even running?

Nope. All the media is doing that. The ones who dropped out dropped out after the poll. I'm just glad that one included Cain.

LOL! Quick, place a bet with Barb before she comes to that realization herself!
