The time has come to question the conventional wisdom which asks the question: “Is a candidate electable?”.
The truth is my dog could beat 0bama.
The question becomes: “Who has the guts to turn around this socialist Rat/Soros agenda?”
On that score Palin looks to be a top contender.
I cant figure Trump out, do you think he really will throw himself in this? If so, who knows what will happen. He has a pop culture following....
Will the “people” (given that lots of Democrats are probably going to crossover vote in an attempt to spoil Republican primaries) pick a candidate who truly has the smarts to undo the Obama mess?
Sarah Palin certainly could. I’m not sure Trump has the vision, even though he knows how to make billions in the private world. But again by the time a well heeled Trump campaign got to Election Day, every man, woman, and child in the country would have seen a Trump ad about a thousand times. And even he would beat the tar out of Obama.
The real estate market is slow. No money can be borrowed. Trump needs a market and other peoples money to operate.. He is bored
He had a TV Show. People ooohed and aahed.
Why not run for President. The Chinese got the best of the man who makes deals. Trash them and get elected.

It would be downright foolish to pick a nominee based on the idea that anybody with a heartbeat will beat our dear leader.
He beat McCain by 12 million votes in '08. He has a core of liberal/union/black/young/gay voters who all indentity-vote.He has more money than he will need and a social network set-up that mocks the million or so palin FB friends.
He has the media.
The deciding factors in '12 will be the centric white male democrats and the squishy independent voters.
Neither of these is going to cross-over to the GOP on election day if our candidate is viewed as the being nothing but the anti-obama choice. We will have to provide a qualified, experienced option that doesn't scare them or turn them off.
The alternative is four more years of destruction.
Big, big mistake to underestimate this guy.
In my opinion he will be tough to beat. We can BS all we want on the Internet about Obama; but the fact is he is a very good politician and the election is a long time away.
He will have the fanatical union “dead enders” doing everything they can to oppose any Republican among other supporters.
Can your dog read a teleprompter, and talk without whistling? Born in the US of US parents? (Is his mother an American bitch? Do you know who his father is? Does he happen to be “registered”?)
If so, your dog could easily be an improvement over the incumbent.
