Well, duh. Please name the conservative we can all coalesce around. I’m sure you will get no argument.
Which is why I fear the states are moving up their primaries before Romney drops in the polls.
Many FReepers would argue that Perry is no better than Romney. Many FReepers would argue that Cain is another Romney. Those views have been posted here by longtime FReepers in nearly every thread.
So, even FReepers are not coalescing around a single candidate and the clock is running out.

Mr. Robinson I believe that candidate is either Sarah Palin or Herman Cain. She is not in yet, wether she will be or not remains to be seen. There is a lot to like about both people, but I would humbly request that if Sarah does not get in this race, conservatives on Free Republic and in general that are holding out their support waiting on her, consider Mr. Cain as a plausible alternative.
In the most current polling he is trending up strongly and if the Palin backers, having nowhere else to go backed Cain, Romney wouldn’t stand a chance.
Perry? There is a lot to like about Perry, the reason that I and many others no longer support him is summed up largely in my tagline. The other reason is that during the debates, he cannot communicate effectively. If one cannot effectively debate, how in the world is he going to articulate true conservatism to a jaded populace?
The others (with the exception of Gingrich) have shown zero upward movement in the polls. Newt has his own problems that will not allow him to win the nod.
Again, if Sarah stays out please seriously consider Herman Cain.
Thank You.
Well, I was thinking of Big Jim Robinson.
(freepers...with a few exception...might all agree on that one.)
Mr. Chairman, the great state of FreeRepublicLand puts into nomination, our favorite son, Mr Jim Robinson.
