Palin has more votes than all the others put together.

How surprising, huh!

At 3%, wow that’s real momentum.

I know not all women like Sarah. Myself. I love her.

I have spoken to many women who do not like her, and not one of them can give me a real reason.

I do know that many will not vote for her because she is a woman. I don’t see them voting for Bachman either.

Given the Candidates in the running right now,for me , it’s Sarah all the way.

“Santorum finishes 2nd and Paul, who usually spans these online pools, at 0%”

Yes, very interesting. Guess RP’s fanati-bots didn’t find out about this one soon enough to do the usual flooding and loading up. They sure keep an eye out for all the Fox News polls, though.

“I hope the candidate who beats Obozo has plans on how to quell the riots in the inner cities.”

It’d be a dream if Herman Cain would be our guy. Not only could he out-speak and out-debate the Wan, but cries of racism should be non-existent. Same with riots - Herman’s skin is a LOT darker than BHO’s. (In fact, for once WE could have fun tossing out the race card at the Left.) He also has a ministerial background (in addition to all his other great credentials), so no doubt he could put the fear of God into the youngbloods! LOL

“if either of those two ladies win the Presidency because they are going to need someone close who has some experience running a government.”

Uh...Sarah was a governor.

But Herman’s been CEO of a large corporation and Sr. VP of another, turning both of them around from near failure to big success. We need someone like him with extensive business experience and financial acumen. After all, we’ve HAD career politicians and, as Cain says - “how’s that been workin’ for ya?”

“But how about this for kicks; Cain as POTUS with (now hear me out) Romney as VP..”

Sorry I didn’t even read the rest of your post before I shot back to defend Herman! That’ll teach me :-)

Yes, I like your thinking on that one - very creative.

You are absolutely correct; when I see Sarah Palin, I see myself, as do all my conservative female family and friends.

When faced with an ultimate Palin/Obama option, not right now, but say, oh, Nov 2012ish, I think that Sarah P will find quite a few, if grudging, converts...male AND female.

Look at all of the pictures of her anytime she is in a crowd and in almost all of them you’ll see nothing but women surrounding her. The women do not like her meme is just another in a long line of lies generated as part of the Alinsky-ing of Sarah by the left and helped along by the Rove wing of the Republican Party.

My wife and daughter love her too.

The day Sarah was first spoke as McCain’s VP choice, my husband and I stood and cheered. I was in the second row when she appeared in my hometown. She was genuine, passionate, and had a sense of humor. My sister’s in-law family in AK knows her personally and say she’s the real deal.

In my blue state, I’ve noticed many women will compliment Sarah if they feel they’re in safe company. There’s a fear factor of ridicule (Alinsky strikes again), but our ballot is still secret. The women who don’t support her won’t even have a conversation. They just give “the look”.

I think she may pull in half the women’s vote, and it will be white men who take her the rest of the way to the White House.

All could win—and many who are not yet in the race—like the following Republicans: Clint Eastwood, Rush Limbauh, Olympia Snow, Michael Reagan, Oliver North, etc...

Winning the Executive Branch & ...Then actively campaigning together to take back the Senate with 15 new senators and massive
gains in the House again. I think this is very doable and has to
happen to save America.

I hear Yah....

“To make the changes necessary, the winner will need to be a real fighter and not someone concerned with their image or being accepted by the media and Washington elite.”

Herman Cain. He’s smooth as silk and tough as nails. He’d eat BHO’s lunch in debate without batting an eye, anytime. He knows how to handle hecklers and is rapidly learning how to handle the media’s BS. As longtime corporate executive and head of the KC Fed, he’s rubbed shoulders with plenty of elites while staying true to himself, his family, his country and God.

I’m not understanding. Are you just saying that anyone at all should be able to beat BHO? (That’s an interesting mix on your list...Olympia Snow???)
