West or Paul. We need what most people would call a "radical" to turn back this tide of communism. Need someone who is going to smite all these pathetic little pussies and make them go to work at taco bell if they have to.

So far out of the candidates listed there are only three that really stand a decent chance to get the nomination. It’s very early, however these are the only ones with any kind of real traction to get past the rest. This is the way I see it and I’m far from an expert, just a passer by at 5000ft.
Mitt Romney, if you looked up the word politician in the encyclopedia you might just see a picture of him. He looks the part, can talk the talk, and has a ton of money. Even if you don’t like him, you’ve got to admit he definitely looks like the best candidate. He can get up in front of a camera and state the obvious like, “Obama is wrong” or “We need a strong military” and “I’m for low taxes” right up there with the best. Big corporation should and do love him. It’s where he made his money and where he’ll get a truckload more. It’s his race to lose right now. He has the support in the presidential race of probably most who will vote R, but absolutely no one who voted D will ever support him. The voters who are undecided may just not show up to the polls or write in their choice.
Michele Bachmann is the Tea Party/female choice and she is doing well if you look at polls and how long she’s been on the presidential scene. She isn’t bad to look at and can also yap it up with the best. I may be the only one, but I think it may come off as trying a little too hard and following the pack with what she is saying though. I think she will get the majority of R voters, except old schoolers who think she should stay in the kitchen, and maybe a few female D folks.
Ron Paul is the little congressman from TX. The thing Ron Paul has going for him right now is the economy and the fact that he was spot on with how things have turned out in the past 7-8 years. He also against a large federal government and isn’t afraid to say it. He doesn’t have much corporate support, however in this climate who would actually want/need that? People have laughed for years, but this is the third time around and no one is laughing anymore. And he just raised a bunch of cash with primarily regular folks forking over what they can afford. The media is as usual doing their best to discredit his reputation. The bad thing is that he is much older than Bachmann and Romney. And you may actually have to listen to what he is saying for more than ten seconds in order for it to sink in. He will get the vast majority of the R votes, all of the folks in the middle, and probably a good chunk of the people who voted Obama in office especially IF the economy stays terrible.

I like Ron Paul. He's the only real constitutionalist, and the Tea Party in its current incarnation can suck my dick. They've done what the Republican Party has done lately to shoot themselves in the foot, and that's give the whole enchilada to social conservatives. We don't need to focus on social issues, we need to focus on fiscal issues, but we can't stop putting the cart in front of the horse, because we're entitled. Just ask us, we'll tell you.ZOMBIE REAGAN FOR PRESIDENT 2016!!! heh

Honestly, I like Ron Paul, or at least I try to like him. Just when I see myself agreeing with him 100% he pops off with some off the wall crazy shit. Honestly he is my favorite going in but I wish he would think before he talks sometimes. He makes it to easy for the liberals to spin his talk.
