I think in the next year we have to unite beyond one candidate. My two top ones are Sarah Palin and Bobby Jindal.
If we start soon by the time the primary season rolls around we will be able to get her or him at the top of the ticket.
I would be interested in other names as well. I think the others that ran in 2008 are pretty much done.
One of the reasons Reagan was nominated and won was how united his supporters were from the start. My grandparents were talking about him even in the 1976 election (and I think it was good he wasn't Ford's VP nominee and one of the reasons I worry 2008 will hurt Sarah in the long run)
Really? I don’t care what you think.
You know what I think?
It high time you Boom Chaka Laka Brother!

GOP = DOA
I want to wait until the candidates begin announcing they want to run. Why start supporting someone who may not even run...big waste of time. We all were behind Fred Thompson and others and did not do any good. The guy who got it we didn’t even want. The only people who should even begin to discuss who our pick will be is the people of Iowa and New Hampshire who will pick our candidate. Now once the candidates are announced, I would not mind getting Iowa and New Hampshire behind the candidate we want.
“The democrats especially the most liberal ones started working towards 2008 the day after the 04 election and I think that is one of the reasons they won.”
I thought it was the econmy crashing, personally...look at the history...
Yeah, I’m not taking advice from McCainiacs, thank you. Your guy was out campaigning for Obama all the way along and was the wimpiest and saddest excuse for a GOP Presidential nominee I’ve ever seen. He made Bob Dole look animated.
I will accept him as President upon presentation of a valid birth certificate which proves his Constitutional qualifications.
I will not accept his rat policies.
Sarah has her name out there now like Reagan did in 1976. I see a lot of Parralels.
Reagan made a name for himself first and came roaring back in 1980
Thank you for sharing your opinion.

After the court cases regarding Obama’s birth certificate are concluded; I’m sure Freepers will most lik move on to other issues.
Btw, you may want to change your moniker.
I sincerely believe that at this point in time, McCain could be nominated for
dog catcher — and he wouldn’t win.
If Obama becomes president, I will accept him and treat him with as much respect as the liberal press and public has treated President Bush.
There, that ought to satisfy you.
Take a look at what's been going on since Reagan left office. No matter who was in the White House and no matter who controlled Congress, the country grew more liberal. Even during the better years of the past two decades, all we did was marginally slow the growth of liberalism. That's not good enough. If we're to retake our country, we must start from the ground up with conservatives and absolutely stop settling for the lesser of a bunch of evils.

This really should be posted in Breaking News and linked to Drudge!!
I can’t believe that you are just now sharing this with us.
IMHO this is a waste of time.
If anything we need to focus on 2010.
But the worst part is our last free election was 2004.
The last election we had ACORN and funny out of country campaign cash in the tens of millions of dollars.
ACORN will finish what they started. Considering they get 4.5 points on EVERY Freddie & Fannie mortgage loan and 100 million dollors in the recent bailout they are well funded by our own money to destroy our country.
John McCain voted for them to get these funds and has also spoke before the group.
The last hope we have for freedom is now in the hands of the SCOTUS.
Second, let's relegate the RINOs to their proper place -- in the very, very, very rear of the Big Tent.
Third, if Sarah cannot (or won't) run for President in 2012, we can at least see if she'll go for the Senate.
Last, and certainly not least -- while we are still in the wilderness, let's stay on our knees in prayer for this country and the incoming President.
What a loaded choice of words you've made, and in a vanity post no less. You're going to get flamed to a crisp. Got your asbestos suit ready, lol?
Nothing is inevitable except obama voters pushing obama....is that what you’re really trying to do with this topic?
Either Obama woke up on Nov 5th seeing reality or someone in the RNC has pictures of him with farm animals.
Obama's not stupid. He's already caved on taxes and the war in Iraq. Let's just stay frosty and wait and see.
In the meantime we need to stay true to our principles without always having to resort to bashing Liberals. That is too easy.
I don’t discount any of your thoughts on the matter. Personally I’m part of the Sarah Palin 2012 Movement. Depending on how bad Obama flops (and he will flop) I’d be willing to entertain other GOP possibilities. I do agree it’s probable that the most successful GOP candidate will be the one who is best organized the earliest.
I think some of this jockying has already begun with the current Chambliss campaign. Who is given the most credit for his victory will send that person’s stock up. I’m betting it’ll be Sarah. All in all any serious contender must work Bush’s red states that went blue early and often to get them back to favorable red polling numbers.
