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 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)

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.

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.

Well, first: Although there's not a great deal I can do personally, I have no intention of accepting the fact that a man who is likely a foreign national, is about to become president. I will follow and cheer the fight against such a constitutional atrocity to the end. Boom chaka laka. Second: The GOP as a conservative party is functionally defunct. The Big Tenters (BT hereinafter) had their poster boy at the top of the ticket and it was a miserable failure that would've been a landslide for Obama had Palin not been on the ticket. We have much larger problems than who is on the presidential ticket in 2012. We need to be looking at 2010 right now, and vowing to vote against every one of the mamby-pamby RINOs in the 2010 primaries. As long as these people are in place, we will have no meaningful chance of slowing the liberal juggernaut because they're part of that juggernaut, either directly (McCain) or indirectly (see failure to govern even when we had the White House and both houses of Congress).

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.

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.

I say let's get the groundwork laid out for 2010 to regain some House and Senate seats; extremely critical for keeping the Left from over reaching to the point of total destruction.

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.

I think it's time we move on.

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?

The thought of Obama being president depresses me to no end. But what really gets me angry are the knuckle draggers who voted for him. How can people be that dumb? I have some friends and family members who voted for the jerk and when I pressed them on the issues they could not give me any reasons that they voted for him. This is what's most troubling than anything else. These folks are clueless to the amount of damage this guy can do. And worst of all when he does crash and burn as he is certain to do, these people will not blame him.

As for 2012 let's not waste our time now. It's too far into the future. We must concentrate on stopping Obama from doing the kind of damage that it will be difficult to recover from. If we focus on anything it should be 2010. We must pick up seats in this election. As for as 2012 the candidates will surface, may Palin, maybe Jindal or maybe someone we haven't heard of yet. Who ever heard of Obama in 2004?

I agree. Being part of the "loyal opposition" means being LOYAL to our principles and beliefs. Obama has made some decisions that have sent the DUmmie and Kos crowds into conniption fits. I don't care if Obama ran as a Marxist. If he governs like a sane centrist I think he deserves kudos when they are due but our outrage when he moves one millimeter to the left. Hold our ground, no matter who is helping us to hold it.

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.
