Republican Nomine choices for President. Pick who you may vote for.

  • Wolves of Babylon
    When someone says basically all, that means most, if I thought they ALL were I would have stated as much.

    Kasich is probably one I could vote for mainly because he at least seems intelligent and has a record of getting things done. Not everything I agree with but I don't think he would do anything outrageous or terrible.

    And I find it comical that someone who would vote for Trump calling me clueless.

    Not denying that Ohio has been the home of a few presidents, just that only 2 or 3 have served full terms, none have been re-elected and 1 was pretty much universally regarded as the worst president ever.

    Grant and McKinley were reelected.

    No mention of Carly Fiorina, but she would at least be in my top 5. I think Kasich and Rubio are also players given that Ohio and Florida hold must-win electoral votes.

    No one is voting for her.

    May well be but I like the way she hammers Hillary, among other viewpoints.

    THat strategy didnt work last time......the pubs propped up Palin to go after HC and she wasnt the candidate. She wont be this time either.
  • like_that
    I would be shocked if HC doesn't win the democratic primary.
  • HitsRus
    Fiorina>>>Palin. I would vote for her over a number of the others, but I don't think she'll garner enough attention.

    the fact that trump is still in this race is a condemnation of the republican party. the fact he's still ahead in the polls is laughable. i swear it's as if the republicans aren't trying.

    And it's starting to look like Trump might be one of the few Repubs Hillary could beat. MIGHT be.

    Elizabeth Warren might be the only chance the Dems have.

    I think Trump is polarizing now because he says things that are very visceral in nature and the nation seems to be at odds at every corner and in every discussion. And that is captivating in a race where every other candidate needs to have his or her pulse checked to make sure they are alive. I would probably have to write in Montgomery Brewster at this point.... Donald might just tell a foreign leader he is a fat harry homosexual and start world war three! LOL! Although I do feel that the longer he stays in the race the more difficult the questions for ALL candidates will be. I hear all the "he's just like us man and says what we are all thinking"... Well, let me tell ya I don't want a guy like me running arguably the most powerful nation on the planet. I mean once they limited my ability to get a super size drink I may have launched a campaign against said institution! Plus being honest has it's limitations... "Honey do I look fat in these jeans"???? But if I HAD to pick today I like Carson, he seems very methodical and thoughtful. But it is REALLY early in this thing and anything can happen. It is crazy to me how much weight debates hold over who people tend to lean towards. We need to educate ourselves on where these individuals stand and HAVE stood. The media simply plays to the largest majority of its viewers presuppositions to get the ratings up. I have always felt like if any candidate could make an honest ATTEMPT at making changes in DC it would almost have to be someone from outside the school yard. Been interesting so far and will probably get more so in the coming weeks and months......

    You would pick Carson? He has less experience than Obama. A vote for Carson would be wasted. Nothing would get done.

    The only ticket that would give hillary trouble is a midwest governor + rubio.

    I am astonished t how once again the repubs have convinced themselves that she is going down and has no chance...the same attitude they had when Obama trounced Romney with 300 electoral votes.

    Kasich/Rubio or its Hill IMHO.

    Personally I think Trump is trolling for Bill and Hillary
