Which Republican should become the next president?

IBM Watson for president; fulfills Sideshow Bob's prophecy: "Because you needme, Springfield. Your guilty conscience may force you to vote Democratic, but deep down inside you secretly long for a cold-hearted Republican to lower taxes, brutalize criminals, and rule you like a king."

You mean the guy who would not have paved the way for George W. Bush, would not have invaded Panama illegally, would not have continued the Reagan-Bush massive debt, would not have supported a slew of right-wing economic priorities, could have better taken advantage of the end of the cold war, and did not have many years of covert illegal activities to cover up such as Iran-Contra? Who might not have given Saddam a mistaken green light to invade Kuwait and suggested the people of Iraq fight Saddam - only to then let Saddam slaughter them? Who wouldn't have pardoned criminals from the previous administration, who would have supported labor and a return torwards regulating Wall Street? Bad vote to vote for Bush.

Good god Craig you still really believe there is a difference between these groups.

I like it. Would add some brains to the WH.

I wish we could have an independent as President rather than someone who panders to political parties and alliances.

How come there is so little support for Ron Paul? Guy is fiscally conservative, even believes in cutting defense spending, as it is one of the biggest things bleeding the US economy.

You have to tow the party line. The sheep follow the money, and the big boys in DC have all the money. Those spending bills and special intersts get them their money. It's quite circular.

Essentially, the GOP is half the problem. The DNC is the other half. Together they are the ENTIRE problem in Washington DC. You will not cut spending until you cut the party.

You answered your own question. Big business in this country runs on defense spending.

So.. then... answer me this.


When the Democrats have their brain aneurysm and decide to put Jesse Jackson, or god forbid, Al Sharpton.. as their candidate for president (dont doubt it... in our infinite wisdom, we decided they would be good mayoral candidates in NY.. i have no doubt it may happen one day for president)..

you will vote for them?

No fair! Questions like that put an unsafe strain on Dave's one remaining brain cell!

I like Herman Cain. I'd love it if he got the nod and persuaded Rice to run with him - an all-black ticket featuring great business knowledge and great foreign policy knowledge. My personal favorite though remains Romney: equally business savvy, more government savvy, and socially more liberal.

So, the Tea Party wants a CEO as President...Great thinking...

Sadly, she put forth as a joke a sounder energy plan than did either Obama or McCain - and articulated it better, and sounded smarter saying it.

Not to mention she "Poles" well with all demographics

Someone with balls.
Real balls, not Sarah. Though she's tougher than anyone else on the list.

That's not exactly true. It seems it's the left here that always brings up his race.

well, those that like to throw his middle name in there, constantly, are certainly insinuating something about an ethnicity which he does not have.

that doesn't come from the left.

Wheres Ross Perot at?

someone has not yet let him finish.

The giant flaw in this whole thread is that the GOP electorate remotely resembles tea party thinking.

Look what happened last time the GOP elected a nominee for Prez. The Field was over crowded with wannabees trying to be even more conservative and religious right than the other, and the GOP electorate voted for the candidate most critical of GWB policies, as the GOP labeled McCain a liberal in the process.

The other GOP and tea party problem by 2012, is that if the GOP that talked the talk in 2010, actually walks their own talk in 2011 and 2012, they will collapse the American economy.

As Zebo points out, our problem is that America has outsourced our economy overseas, and now everyone is arguing over retaining the lions share of an ever smaller pie. While bankers and flim flan con artists promise to create money out of thin air.
