Since I was a registered pubbie and the thread has few responses......Palin, Santorum, Cantor.

Why don't you like Cantor?

I voted Palin, Santorum, and Huckabee.

Charlie Crist
Gary Johnson
Tim Pawlenty

Crist and Pawlenty are rabid liberals who would show their true colors given electoral power. 

How is Pawlenty a liberal?

And we all know 95% of the Republicans here would end up pulling the lever for the Republican once they got into the voting booth anyway, so this thread is pointless.

So then the 5% of us who aren't blind partisans will post.

So you'd vote for the guy that you disagree with about everything, all because your candidate didn't win the primary. Talk about being a sore loser.

Who said he disagrees with Obama about everything?

He's a Republican, so naturally he would agree with the Republican candidate more than the far-left radical borderline Marxist/Socialist/Racist in the White House.

Someone like Santorum, Palin, or DeMint is unelectable.  If we nominated one of them, the only purpose they would serve is to reinforce the stereotype that Republicans are simple-minded. 

The way I look at it, I agreed with George W. Bush on a lot of issues, but came out feeling extremely dissatisfied with his presidency.  Obama is not a Socialist or a Marxist.  He's a Keynesian.  I disagree with him on most issues, but can at least trust his ability to reason.  I cannot trust the aforementioned to govern with a level head and not be an embarassment.  And I don't know where this "racist" charge comes from, but I believe it's unfounded and hurts the GOP's ability to engage in any honest opposition.

Newt Gingrich, Jeb Bush for obvious reasons, and Sarah Palin.  They didn't fulfill what they set out to do during their turn in office, but want to use the Presidency to fulfill that, and I don't think that is what the presidency is for.

Can you expound on that?  What did they "set out to do" in their last positions?
