I think Trump is going to run. I know what your thinking out there. He would not be my first choice, but if he gets momentum , he could be very strong. I am not sure he would be the best president, but I do think with his personality, and stage presence he could beat obama.
NEXT QUESTION GEORGE!!!

Sad for my party.
Trump and Palin? What happened to admirable GOP candidates? |

I agree on Palin(go away). But Trump is no dummy, and has the chutzpah, to pull it off. I think most americans are not impressed with so called qualified candidates, and are looking for someone outside the norm. |

Trump is not dumb. But how will Trump get around the fact that he donated huge amounts to get Rom Emanuel elected as well as, uh . . . Barak Obama?
Yes, he and others donate to candidates from both sides, but very few do so immediately before announcing the formation of an exploratory committee to unseat the recipient of ones' donation!
Trump will not get far, notwithstanding the length of his unfurled comb-over. |

You may be right, but I would not bet the house on it. I am only saying he has great star power , and will not be pushed around by the media. Time will tell , but my gut feeling is his message will hit home with a lot of people.
Remember Obama had the anti-bush factor in his corner, and whoever goes against obama will have that working for them also. |

maybe not matty. When next Summer rolls around, Obama could be quite popular, one never knows. I thought there was no way in hell the little drunk criminal who used to own the Rangers would get a second term, he was at 46-47%, and pulled it off. Trump would have too many obstacles, and he would say too many contoversial things. |

And just think Boggsman, not only did he win , but he survived the liberal medias onslaught of lies, deceit, and hatred, an orgy of negative news. Now on the other hand the liberal media has done the exact opposite With the incompetent ,classless fool obama. And his numbers still suck, so you do the math, we are a center right country without question. |

The conservative media has blasted Obama, lied and blamed him for everything starting with Limbaugh BEFORE he was in office. They have convinced 45% of repubs he was not born here and 17% that he is satan.
I don't recall the weenie liberal media doing that to Bush in his first two years. Bush got some respect at first.
I am not an O fan just a fan of the facts.
No one is more partisan than Rove and he thinks the completely over the top ignorance of the media attacks will help O get elected. He thinks it makes conservatives look stupid and untrustworthy if they mostly believe right wing nonsense. That is Rove talking to us- not the Dems.
He calls the conservative media gift a to liberals. |

So why do you listen to Limbaugh if he lies? I quit listening to him ~15 years ago because he attacks people personally (e.g., after he ranted on Hillary's looks for a week, I PLONKed him for good); I've never seen any proof he's ever lied. Just the contrary; the 3 or 4 lies I've heard him accused of were clearly false accusations. As for the rest of the center and right media ... ya gotta pick and choose. Rejecting them altogether and relying only on left wing sources for one's education makes one look stupid and, if accompanied by endless baseless personal attacks, gets one PLONKed.
BTW, the first things I ever heard about some candidate and then new president named Gorge W. were his total lack of foreign policy and his massacre of the English language. He got no pass from the left. |
