I’m thinking Palin/Boehner - what do you think?

Go Sarah!
Mittens has NEVER been the frontrunner in anyone’s mind but the media. They are mistaken if they think they are going to choose our candidate this time around. They did that in 2007-2008 and look what we have as result, the Kenyan Poser and the first Wookie. Never again. Even if it takes spilling blood, never again...
Mitt Romney has been the frontrunner for several months but Sarah Palin has been steadily climbing and closing the gap. It is essentially dead even, as of today, but for the first time she has a small lead and it is expected she will pull ahead.
Sarah Palin is the future for our country for the common and average citizen ...
Mitt Romney was never anything worth considering in the first place... it's a wonder that he's even registering at all... it must the Marxists/Liberal/Leftists who are doing this to try and foist "their choice" upon us ... :-)
She ain’t no Reagan, but she’s the next closest thing out there.
Romney was a lesser of evils. Now that we have a new slate, who needs him anymore! No more choosing between RINOS!
Mainly because the Left would go completely out of their minds, instead of just halfway.
I guess ole Mitt is gonna have to buy a lot more votes at the next RNC straw poll.
I think Palin backers should buy up as many of these contracts as possible if only to show their support!
Mitt’s going to have to spend some money to get that lead back.
I think it would be very difficult not to run for POTUS while being #1 at INTRADE.
Since I am convinced she will run I probably should make some money here. I see the trade states Sarah must declare by 12/31/11. Does someone running for pres usually declare by 12/31 of the year before the election?
Well Intrade doesn’t mean much, just a snapshot of the situation here and now. But you can’t look at that particular betting in isolation to other betting.
In another category on InTrade Palin is at 59.0 “...to formally announce a run for President before midnight ET on 31 Dec 2011”. Romney of course would be at 80-90 in that he is certainly running barring (or in spite of) gaffes, family or health issues. But there is no market on Romney or anybody else in this area, only Palin.
So, IF Palin was seen to be running as Romney so obvioulsy is, her odds would jump around 40-50% to say 35-40 instead of the 26 it currently is. And Romney and the others would drop perhaps 10-15% across the board.
That is, at the moment Palin is by far the strong favourite to be the next Republican Nominee, IF she is running, despite all the media obfuscations and rigged polls. As it is, the punters are not that confident she is running, so she is sharing favouritism with Romney.
Cool. I love making money by putting it where my mouth is.
Now if I could just get Michael Steele to resign...
