To: Cincinatus' Wife

I’m a social conservative. I’m looking for the candidate who can win, and I’m not convinced that Bachmann is that candidate.

That said, if she were the nominee, I would vote for her.

I prefer Perry or Palin, neither of whom is running.

Yet.

I’m a social conservative. I’m looking for the candidate who can win, and I’m not convinced that Bachmann is that candidate.

I am convinced she is our worst candidate (other than Romney and the soon to be departed Gingrich), there are better ones that have declared already, and I would be surprised if neither Perry nor Palin jump in.

That said, if she were the nominee, I would vote for her.

I totally agree. I just hope it doesn't come to that.

I think the article is explaining why so many so cons are holding back, they are waiting for a better alternative than Bachmann. She has been great as a congresscritter, but congresscritters simply are bad candidates for a number of reasons.

This pretty well sums up my position.

I would also throw Herman Cain in the category of a candidate I’m not convinced would win, but I would definitely vote for if he’s the nominee. Oh wait, I guess that makes me a racist too...
