That leaves Mitt. I wish I trusted him more. I don’t. I guess at this point for me, he maybe stinks the least although nobody should be celebrating because that certainly isn’t sayin’ much.


Mitt stinks the least now only because he pours on the 'foo foo' water.

Maybe we could get Ted Nugent to run?

I am going with the Asteroid...

Solid on the Issues and it can have a great impact on the race.

Also would make Hillary or Obama look small by comparison.

Thanks to monkapotamus for the graphics.

Without Duncan Hunter and Fred Thompson in the picture, Mike Huckabee seems to be the best choice that is left.

That's what the MSM wants you to think, because they have their campaign to paint him as an ignorant, superstitious, snag-toothed, backwoods-Arkansas, bible-thumping, snake-charming hillbilly is in the can and ready to roll in their goal to reelect Clinton, Inc.

Romney is not my choice, but he has chance of beating Team Clinton.

The Huckster doesn't.

The correct answer is vote strategically in hope of the party turning to a Dark Horse (Fred or Newt):

Vote for the least intolerable of the active candidates (your judgement) if doing so has a realistic change of denying an intolerable candidate delegates. If not, and Fred is still on the ballot, stick to your guns and vote for Fred.

For me McCain and Huckabee are intolerable. I see no point in America having two socialist parties.

I was a Thompson supporter and have shifted along with my family to Romney. We are leaving in 30 mins to go early vote here in Florida for him.

Oh yeah, let’s nominate Huckabee and watch the GOP go down in flames in a 40 state debacle.

I was a Hunter’s Ranger but, Fred was my second choice.

Out of the 4 left, IMO, Romney is a very energetic, family man without a marred past. He has proven himself to be a success at everything he’s done and is by far the most knowledgable about the world economy.

I’m still not sure who I will support but, I think it’s crucial to make sure it’s not McCain. (endorced by the NYTIMES)

I am sorry, but you are wrong about Huckabee. I think you are simply blinded by Mitt’s charm and optimism.

It would be a 50 state debacle...

Plus Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands....

And Guam would seek to by annexed by Japan...

I think it was pretty clear at the debate when huck said he would rather have a major public works project instead of tax cuts

It will be Romney for me.

I am terribly disappointed in Thompson. I generously contributed to his campaign and have not received any statement or anything from the campaign since he quit the campaign. Before then, it was several emails a day.

I cannot vote for McCain or Huckabee. I can’t stay home and let Hillary or Obama waltz into the Whitehouse!

That’s how I knew his campaign was dead. I didn’t get an email asking for more $ after he lost SC. Oh well.

At this point, Huckabee is looking like the best remaining viable candidate for conservatives to support.

Absolutely not. I have never voted for that scumbag before, and I don't plan on doing so in the future.

I'll write in Thompson so at least I can say I voted with my conscience. I'm willing to endure four years of the Hildabeest if it means a conservative revival in 2012.

After all, it took Jimmah Carter to get Ronald Reagan.

electability is my top concern.

Bishop Willard has no chance in the
general election.

for me, McCain or Rudy
