The Indy Star ran an editorial that said Mitch HAD to run to save us from terrible Repub. candidates. -- nm - Amy Apr 12, 13:20 7
- ugh....he won't get the Teacher unions. -- nm - Remlik Apr 12, 13:22 1
  - He's a Republican, he's not getting the teachers unions ever. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 12, 13:25
- If you're a potential guy, you have to run now, worse case for you, you run competently and get the GOP "He's due" bounce in 2016. - Will Hunting Apr 12, 13:22 4
  - I don't think that's worst case. Worst case is you pick a joke of running mate, lose the respect of moderate voters, and become a punchline. - musubi Apr 12, 13:26 1
    - Well, worse case for a viable future I should say - Will Hunting Apr 12, 13:29
  - nix The Donald for a minute. Romeny is the "He's Due" guy this year. and Pawlenty in 2016. at this point. -- nm - Remlik Apr 12, 13:23 1
    - Romney is a Mormon who believes in a form of socialized medicine. Ain't gonna happen. -- nm - con_carne Apr 12, 13:24
Won't the Tea Partiers reject him once they see how the banks bailed him out repeatedly? - Remlik Apr 12, 13:18 5
- 1) It's not like there is a uniform vision, thought process or priciple to TPers. 2) Even if there were, it still would bother them - musubi Apr 12, 13:22 1
  - Err, *wouldn't* bother them. (nm) - musubi Apr 12, 13:23

- Sure, all they have to do is make an easy logical inference. Oh, wait... -- nm - David Apr 12, 13:20
- Those tea partiers always do the reasonable thing! :) -- nm - con_carne Apr 12, 13:20
Who was the STer who commented how much of a circus 2012 was going to be? Yeah, that. -- nm - con_carne Apr 12, 13:16 4
- I will be disappointed in no Republican candidate dresses up in makeup and a clown costume. - David Apr 12, 13:17 3
  - So what would you call it? President Lady GaGa, or Lady President GaGa? -- nm - Beryllium Apr 12, 13:22 2
    - First Lady Diva Gaga -- nm - Qale Apr 12, 13:25
    - Personality-less Cherbot V 2.012. -- nm - David Apr 12, 13:24
*giggle* -- nm - David Apr 12, 13:13
The GOP establishment must be *so* pissed with Trump. -- nm - Mop (212 lbs) Apr 12, 13:10 4
- Nah, they're thinking the same as the Democrats....look at the attenion whore. - Will Hunting Apr 12, 13:18
- I can't imagine being very put out with anyone after having voted for Sarah Palin. -- nm - con_carne Apr 12, 13:17 2
  - Seriously. How pissed were they at McCain? -- nm - mara Apr 12, 13:17 1
    - A gnat. I might have a problem if the GOP nominated an insect of some kind. -- nm - con_carne Apr 12, 13:19

clearly this is organised Democrat sabotage -- nm - Roger More Apr 12, 13:05 11
- nah, Trump is just that much of an idiot. Have you ever watched him on Apprentice. -- nm - Jovian Apr 12, 13:16
- The Democrats can't organize around their own policies...and they're smart enough to rig the GOP polling? :) -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 12, 13:14
- I think it's effing hilarious. -- nm - Trish Apr 12, 13:14
- As far as I can tell, Romney would do best to just pack it in. Clearly, any reasonable alternative to him will prevail. - Name Withheld By Request Apr 12, 13:09 7
  - I don't think he's badly positioned, mysel. -- nm - mara Apr 12, 13:16 1
    - I dunno. I threw a few bucks on him to win the nomination a couple of months ago and I felt pretty confident he would get it then. Far less so now. - Name Withheld By Request Apr 12, 13:19
  - Looking at the rest of the list, there aren't many reasonable alternatives sticking their hand up -- nm - Roger More Apr 12, 13:13 4
    - Not yet, but at some point one of the more reasonable alternatives will emerge and underdog factor will kick in. - Name Withheld By Request Apr 12, 13:17 1
      - Huckabee's arguably a bigger name with his story and his tv shows....it's a die-hard election - Will Hunting Apr 12, 13:19
    - It's almost like polling for an election a full 19 months out is... pointless, or something. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Apr 12, 13:15 1
      - The polls are about the primaries, which begin in eight months. By this stage in 2007, all the major 2008 candidates had announced their runs -- nm - Roger More Apr 12, 13:21
