2012 - Top Contenders

Posted on 11/04/2008 8:09:33 PM PST by frankiep

OK, the United Socialist States of America has just elected it's new Führer. The question now is who today are the top contenders for the Republican nomination in 2012?

Sarah Palin Bobby Jindal Michael Steele Mike Huckabee someone else?

Let's face the facts, the Republican Party is a total mess right now, and now is the time to close the book on GWB, John McCain and all the other 'reach across the aisle' Republicans that have turned this party into a shell of it's former self. So, who are your favorites in 2012?

Huckabee’s the a$$clown that wouldn’t pull out just to spite Romney. Because of him, we were stuck with McCain. He’s toast.

SARAHCUDA, ALL THE WAY!!!!!

Sarah Palin-Bobby Jindal’12! The Republican Party needs to be purged of all the “reach-across-the-aisle-compromise-our-principles” people. We need reformers, who will stick to conservatism! Sarah and Bobby would do just that!

That reach around stuff was definitely a nonstarter. Democrats don’t care about bipartisanship. They’re all in it for the graft.

Exactly so. The GOP must get out of the Marquis of Queensbury rules when dealing with an adversary whose credo is “By any means necessary”.

Palin for sure, she has 4 years to get up to speed. But the GOP have to seriously boycott the media now. That means Fox too.

Let’s be realistic.

Hawaii, California, Washington, Oregon, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, Colorado, Illinois, Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Vermont, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine are permanently lost to the current form of the Republican party.

That’s 18 of 50 states.

Demographics are destiny, Virginia and Florida will fall also.

The plotline is written, outside of rear guard actions and last stands, there really is nothing that can be done once the Amnesty Laws create 7 to 12 million more Democrat voters.

No guarantees there will be a 2012 election for POTUS...once we go black/muslim we may never go back. If this sucker jihads the US and hands it over to his Muslim posse..the last thing you may be worried about in 2012 is a presidential election.

Run for the hills, gather your guns while you still can—the Liberals are coming with their great black hope. The conservatives of this country will see nothing short of the crap that happened during Reconstruction—redistribution of wealth, power and the good of mankind.

Look what happened the last time someone from Illinois was elected. Remember Lincoln had a questionable background too if you really check and don’t read the Yankee history books.

No matter where you are, you will now know what it has been like to live in the South for the past 140+ years...live it up!!!

At least we won’t have McCain with all his sickening softy, reaching across the isle crap anymore.

The judges appointed to the SC will be the last straw for America.

It’s all Bushes fault. It really is. He should have got rid of all those lefties as soon as he took office. He was too fair. You can’t be fair or trust a lefty. And McCain was just like him in a lot of ways.
