I think Perry could do it....
I think a Perry/Bachman ticket could do it.....hey, how 'bout a Perry/Christie ticket?? I don't think I would want him as the top guy, but as the vp he could be quite entertaining!

Yeah and current polling says that Obama would beat Palin in Alaska, whats your point? Polls at this point are about as useful as a hi-point

You stated they were unelectable in a general, yet polling shows that the Kool aide man would have a chance against Obama as long As he had an R by his name...
So my point is you're wrong.

Or a ham sandwich for that matter. A sandwich might do less damage to the country, also.

And even the wackiest conspiracy theorists wouldn't be saying the ham sandwich is Muslim.

Well, if Bachmann wasn't a non-candidate before, she just signed her campaign's death knell.

Never underestimate the Republicans' ability to shoot themselves in the foot. Luckily for them it is only figuratively.

This is why I have such a problem with so many in the GOP they say they are for small government but they are really for "their" version of big government. I am leaning heavily toward Gary Johnson, but I do not think he stands a chance.
