There is every possibility that Sarah will not run. At this point I would guess it is fifty-fifty.

If the wrong fifty comes up then it is reasonable to develop alternatives.

Daniels
Kasich
Christie

would lead the pack with me.

But the Ultras hate everyone who is not 100% in accord with them and their conceptions of what conservatism means which makes it almost impossible to select a nominee without enormous rancor and disruption. Look at what happened in ‘08.

Their not "Ultras"; their just common-sense conservatives who recognize the shaky ground that at least two of those candidates you mentioned, Daniels and Christie, live on in terms of conservatism.

The fact you refuse to take into consideration the information that has been posted here "ad nauseum" about both of those candidates is more a reflection about your choice to ignore salient and important information that about your opinion about the extreme nature of those who are actually paying attention.
