Obama with 60% approval rating vs Palin  in 2012 = 1972 for the democrats.

What part of, the Democrats can't demographically win 49 states, don't you understand?

Considering it is Palin  and the country is getting younger It could happen.  That old conservative base is getting up there and  most will be looking for caskets soon.

Ok, I will give You Alaska, MS, AL and TN and other small electoral vote states. = thats still a 1972 type landlslide.


Palin is like the gop's version of McGovern.



You way overestimate the socialist movement in this country.

Crist would be a good pick for '12 at this point. However, he may be to soft spoken for the presidential level.

I think the gay rumors would subside. He's married now, so I don't see why it would be a big issue. It's been a while since I've lived in FL, but my grandparents love Crist. What's your opinion of him, statesrights?

Pretty moderate Republican. He has moments where I go "Yeah for Crist", moments like today, when he speed up contracts for roadwork in the state to help put people back to work. Then he has some really dumb moments, like when he totally flipped off our legislature and signed Vegas style gambling into law with the Seminoles. He just totally skipped the legislative process and did it anyways. Apparently the Federal govt was going to let them have their way anyhow so he just jumped in on it so that the state wouldn't lose out on its' share of the money.

I love Mark Sanford. I've met him on several occasions, but I highly doubt he has presidential aspirations.

I certainly hope we can do better than Sarah Palin in 2012. If not, we'll have Obama for 2 terms.

What's wrong with Palin? Other then the fact the media hates conservative women.
