I'd gladly vote for Jesse "The Body" Ventura before I'd vote for any of the current crop of greedy, self-serving azzholes...
the most able republican ... Romney. Whether he'll invest the effort in 2012 is the question. the notion that his mormon status will work against him .... is moot
Other than the usual objections anyone has whose religion is different from their own.... I don't know what the fuss is about Romney being a Mormon. (They're not REALLY polygamists and pedophiles, you know.) Years ago I worked in an office where nearly everyone except me was Mormon. I never experienced anything to complain about, and they were very financially responsible.
I admit I was wrong about Obama winning. I felt strongly that a man with his anti-capitalist, marxist background could never win, because I understimated the stupidity of the voters. But next time, many of the white voters that put him over the top, aren't going to be there for him. Why? It's going to be a case of 'been there, done that, bought the T-shirt'. The white guilt or novelty vote won't be there for him. Romney - Paul or vice versa is the winning ticket. The time will be ripe for a business man and a Libertarian mind.
Unfortunately Obama is on a narcissistic quest to CHANGE EVERY FARKIN' THING AND IMPLEMENT EVERY FASCIST THING HE CAN TOWARDS LIBTARD SOCIALISM... AS FAST AS POSSIBLE BEFORE SOMEBODY STOPS HIM.. and me may in fact do enough damage that it won't ever be undone.
If Mr. Obama continues his glide path into Fabian socialism, all it will take is someone with a pulse, the ability to speak without a tele-prompter and a conventional, boring name like John Doe.
Romney will get the GOP nomination in 2012, and he could definitely beat Obama. There is no way the economy will even remotely start to recover by then, and all fingers will be pointed at the big spending liberal Obama. If Hillary Clinton tries to seek the white house in 2012, I think she would also have a great chance. Obama is really pissing Clinton off with bypassing friends of hers for ambassadorship appointments. So, the turmoil is already starting between the two. Another poster had remarked that Clinton would end up resigning as Sec. of State in 2011, in order to make a white house run. Well, I absolutely expect that to happen!!! And should she decide to go against Obama, I would vote for her in a heart beat, even though I'm a Republican. I'll do anything to see that radical, socialist, dictator asshole Obama gone. According to recent polls, Obama has lost the majority of independent voter support. Hell, even some democratic supporters now believe they placed the wrong guy in the white house. In any event, things look very rosy for Romney and Clinton, should they seek the presidency in 2012.
the notion that his mormon status will work against him .... is moot [/B][/QUOTE Exactly right!!!!!! His religious status will mean nothing. Also, Romney doesn't hang with people that committed acts of terrorism against our own country, like Obama pals Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorn did.
