Possible Republican contenders in 2012?

[bhouston79]

Those already listed like Huckabee, Pawlentee, Palin, ect. ect. are the most likely.  But personally, I am hoping that the moderate wing of the GOP comes back  with avengence and that they nominate someone like Senator Arlen Specter, former Senator Lincoln Chafee (even as a diehard Democrat I would seriously consider voting for this man who I really hated to see lose in 2006), or Connecticut Governor Jodi Rell.  But I doubt that the GOP nominating a moderate will happen anytime soon.  They will likely have to go through the political wilderness for a couple of decades before they decide to make such a move despite the fact that everyone can see what Bush's radical neo-Conservative philosophy has wrought.  There is no doubt that the GOP will win an election again some day.  I just hope that the Democrats win until they nominate someone who is sane.
