Rand Paul 2016. The GOP doesn't have any electable candidates for 2012.

Jon Huntsman, Jr. -Jan. 20, 2017.  

I trust the Republican Party will be saner and more pragmatic by then after suffering a repeat of 1964 in 2012.

Hopefully someone who i voted for in 2012, because if not we're screwed. Obama is a failure and the GOP field is dreadful.

I'm not sure that will happen, and even if it does, the GOP might say that the reason they lost in a landslide was because they were not conservative enough.

The only Republican who has an appreciable chance in 2012 is Mitt Romney, and that requires abject failure by President Obama that makes Americans receptive to someone that they don;t know well. He is the only Republican who has a chance to win outside of the South and High Plains/Rocky Mountains. Much must go right for him and wrong for Obama.

As for the economy -- it won't be in as bad shape as it is in now.

Otherwise, Obama is simply unstoppable in 2012, and any Republican nominee is a sacrificial lamb on the scale of at least Bob Dole in 1996. 

Sarah Palin loses to the "steady hand" approach. Huckabee has the new "Willie Horton" to be used against him. Other candidates are either too regional, too fringe, or connected to Dubya.   

Exactly.  I see it as them nominating someone like Palin in 2012.  She gets blown out.  The party moves toward the center after realizing radical conservatism doesn't have widespread appeal; Brown wins in 2016.

What makes you think they will suffer a repeat of 1964?

What do you think Obama's approvals will be in 2016? I'm just curious.

Are you a troll, a hack, or a ten year old?  Or all of the above?

Nothing you said here was even remotely true...You might want to learn more before you continue making a fool of yourself.

36%

Not with a strong economy, major legislative victories, and a better international scene.  One of the three? 50%, because such would be better than 2008. Two? Probably about 55%.  All three? About 60%. None? About 45% and a nailbiter of a Presidential election.

A Republican governor of a large state who's able to straddle the line between being too moderate and too conservative.  He (or she) will win in 2016, or possibly 2020 or 2024.
