CPAC convention has straw polls and Mitt Romney was on the top list as frontrunner for 2012 republican ticket. Mitt Romney is a traditional politician, like McCain, who can sacrifice his conservative moral convictions just to get elected. I say, at this present times, we do not need that kind of politicians. We are in the era of new beginning, and we need some fresh faces in the politics that can stand by on their moral convictions. Too much of liberalism is bad for the society, the same way of too much of big government spending. My families, friends and I have made a firm decision for 2012.
1. If Obama succeeds, why change him?? But if he fails, it is about time to change the leadership. It depends on whose leadership.
2. If Romney will be the Republican candidate, we have no choice but to re-elect Obama, and give hime another chance.
3. If Palin/Jindal or Palin/Perry will be the republican ticket, then we will vote for the republican ticket on 2012.

YES, WE CAN AND YES WE WILL! REMEMBER 48% OF AMERICANS VOTED FOR SARAH!!!!!! The way Obama is screwing up the US in just a few short weeks Sarah will get at least 60% of the vote.

You mean she got a scholorship fund for college, and it took her six times and she still doesn't? Hillarious and believable.

Personally I spent most of the campaign wondering when some 'liberal' reporter was going to ask Governor Palin how that 'abstinence only' sex ed was working in her family...
- Odd that they never did. Sneaky liberals.

Will the Republicans who made such a big deal abot taxes for cabinet posts be consistent with Palin? She rather overtly cheated on her taxes concerning her per diem payments for LIVING AT HOME while governor. Now it turns out that she didn't bother to report the payments as income as required by the IRS. So Sarah has a little back tax problem.
Besides by the time she could run for president won't she have another couple of kids at home after dropping out of high scholl like her two oldest have done (guess she won't run as the education president)?

Since she attended 4 or 5 different colleges as an undergraduate, I imagine the scholarship money came in handy for all the moves.

Of course there's a chance for Palin in 2012. Stop watching saturday night live and watch how she governs the stat of Alaska. While they have budget problems, she has been pro-active in preparing for them and dealing with them. She is also very good at working with people to actually get things done.
She is currently clearly the most popular Republican and will outdraw and out fundraise pretty much anyone in the field. If she chooses to run, she will bring some real experience and credentials to the race.
Her speach patterns may not standard 'meet-the-press' language but if you pay attention, you notice that she speaks in brief segments, probably inspired by a lot of blackberry use, and has a rather large vocabulary. She is not dumb.

We're still waiting to hear where Obama got his money to study...and we'd sure like to see his University records!
btw, do you use the word "gush" when reporting about men?
