The survey points out a potential problem for Palin: her 65 percent favorabilty rating is the highest of any of the Republicans tested -- but still only 14 percent say that she's their first choice for president.Someone reported that In 2010 News Corporation gave $1M to the Republican Governors Association and $1M to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which was largely working to elect Republicans that year. If news corp. fox news gets behind Huckbee he could have a good chance. That would satisfy their viewers.

I know that Rick Santorum has been getting support from across the country and his name is not in the mix yet. He is former senator from Penna. and is sensitive to real needs, a good communicator, and is on the right side of the issues at hand. He will make a great president.
I like Huckabee and as libere8er said a woman like Conda Lisa Rice would be a excellent choice in the level headed woman category. We need to stay progressive toward change, before we create a 50% level of poverty or go belly up financially as a nation.
Keep praying people, it is the only true lever of advantage for change.
It may be time (2012) for a level-headed, intelligent,and compassionate woman to come forth. Palin and Bachmann do not qualify.

We buy all of the negative advertising/campaigning -- it continues, because it works. The Repubicans benefit from the talk about Obama not being a citizen, not graduating from Columbia, being a socialist, etc. The Democrats benefit from the stories of Palin being stupid, not being a good mother, etc. We have to hold our own parties accountable for such irrelevant trash talking --- but we won't; most of us love it; thus it continues.

I know I just called the number he gave both on his web page and phone. I was recorded as signing the petition.
Huckabee is baldm face lying in the recording, I got 2 i one day, the same exact message trying to use lies as scare tactics.... I hate that he has turned into a political prostute because I was leaning his way in 2012
Mike Huckabee could have what it takes. America could use a kind-hearted guy who carries and knows how to use a big stick. He seems to embody the real values of America and it appears he has the personality and skill set to bring the country back together. An "America First" kind of guy who has a strong sense of personal values and who'll stand up for what's right. A man for the times and challenges America faces.

Nice guys never make it, especially in politics. The last nice guy as president was Carter. Now, how great was he made to look in the history books. Is a white guy from Georgia even going to make anything at all of him. NO! Just where would they put him? In between Black history month/day/week, or at the end of the LatinO history page, or how about this one, Gay Gays that Got Good reviews in history ? No, no room in the inn for the end of the white guy, hetero, working, married, paying taxes and having no issues. Were would he be placed, oops my chip is falling off my shoulder, gotta go . . .

I did not want to sighn the petition I wanted to make a comment in favor of the health care bill but I was recorded as being against it. I wonder how man thousand others got sucked in the same way?

He has governing experience, did a remarkable job of cleaning up the corruption that was a part of the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, and on and on. I understand that his religion is a concern. I heard that same caution about John Kennedy. Romney just appears to have the strength to change the direction we've seen in Washington over these past two years. I hope more will take a closer look at him and understand his record of change.
