No facebook account here either.
Done. I'll vote after you accept me.
For what it's worth, I'm with you, Jim. Sarah's the best we've got. I may just write her in anyway.
I’ve had you as a FB FRiend for several months now under my real name, so I’ll happily FReep your poll, but I wanted to comment here as well.
I liked Sarah (”Liked” mind you - not idolized) but she dropped out.
My second choice was Herman Cain. We all know what happened there.
I kind of like Michelle Bachmann, but she’s got a serious case of “foot into mouth”disease.
Several of the others (Mitt and His Magic Underpants, RuPaul Chamberlain, Jon “I Speak Ten Languages and I’m an Idiot in All of Them” Huntsman) are barely worth the electrons spent in their disparagement.
Newt is going to get my vote by default (I don’t think Santorum has a chance) but this is seriously a case of “hold you nose.” I don’t trust anybody who would allow themselves to be on a couch with Pe-lousey and he’s just a bit too much of a beltway insider.
But I fear that’s our only chance to avoid Myth “Baracklite” Romney.
.......now if Newt would take Cain as VP .......
Just friended
Newt apparently called himself an insider-revolutionary before the takeover of Congress in 1994. I think that attitude sets him apart from what we might normally think of as an insider. He is in the system but he is not of the system.
Done~~Wow, what an honor!
Done~~Wow, what an honor!
Newt’s about as close to Sarah Palin as you can get in many respects. They both had a middle-class upbringing, both fought the establishment segment of the Republican party on their rise to the top, both sought to push the party in a more conservative direction, both nevertheless governed in a realistic and pragmatic manner, both have been scrutinized and smeared by the left-wing press, and both have suffered the blows of frivolous ethics investigations meant to bring them down by the real insiders.
Friend request sent....
Ditto that :-)
I friended you. Then do we see the poll? Thanks!
I’ll do it!
Given the makeup of the field we've got, I tend to agree with you. He definitely comes closer to Palin than all the rest. He may just get my vote because of that.
Jim Robinson for president

Great! Thanks!
You should see the poll on my profile page:

Your “Wall” I think? More to be active on there.
I don’t do Facebook, but ‘None of the Above’ would get my vote.
