MR can win, but I suspect GOP will pair him with TP extremist, which means MR has no shot in 2012. Right now, I see no GOP path to 270. W/O the TP, the path would be a slam dunk, so BO fans should adore the TP. as you know, I'm not a BO fan. Likeable guy, yes, but I do not care about that. I want results, and I value experience. So unlike most conservs, personally I find BO quite likeable, I like his closeness to family, and his attempts the last 18 months to seek common ground, but I don't find him effective at his job. Is he lucky-you bet, TP has caused GOP implosion.

What has happened? Easy?

I think that a Romney/Cain ticket would be ok. Bachmann, Palin or Perry on the ticket would be the kiss of death though.

I like the Romney/Cain ticket also. Chris Christie is a trainwreck waiting to happen. His mouth is way too big. The GOP more than likely are trying to get him to run to keep somebody from winning the nomination...not to actually make him the nominee.

'er, with a slight change....Cain/Romney ticket. Mr. Cain earned 'Top billing.'

As Juan Williams also said...Romney cannot run away from his 'obamacare' which he implimented as Governor of Mass. Like Rick Perry, Romney carries way too much baggage...to be POTUSA.

I actually think CC would make an extremely strong VP, a bulldog for the President. Christie's blunt style works well in NJ, but probably won't be positively received by "polite" folk in middle America.

Gee who do you think that would be? The 13th floor of the hotel maybe? It's getting bad when even a poster wont say Ron Paul. LMAO

I can already see all the regulations a Romney/Cain ticket would make in order to favor their crony capitalists buddies. I'm ready this time. Next time they manipulate the economy I'm all in early and out early.

Run a company? Those two are be the best ones imo. Run the country/economy? No.

Nope can't agree with that one. Romney will do really well in the general election and has more experience as a governor than Cain. They would make a great ticket. Romney's healthcare plan was on a state level not a national level...which is apples and oranges. Romney will appeal to more independents than most of the other candidates.

It has nothing to do with Ron Paul...lol. He is not a threat right now.
