Seriously? No thread on the Iowa caucuses yet?

No time really for Santorum to make a push in NH. With Romney winning Iowa and looking like he should win NH fairly easily he is probably getting the nomination. Romney is the only person with a legit shot at beating Obama.
 
Santorum is simply the flavor of the week, same as Bachmann, Perry, Cain and then Newt were in the past. All the polls were always "who this week is stacking up against Romney's numbers."

As for Barack's skype town hall meeting yesterday, I loved the "we have things in the works, but need 4 more years for them to take shape" mentality. Sounds like despiration.

Jon Stewart did a nice bit last night on the inevitability of Romney, especially the part where he got some (metaphorical) santorum on his plain choclate.

Wondering if you argue the finer points with your television when watching Jon Stewart.

"Flarov of the week" = anyone except establishment Romney or establishment Gingrich.
 
Okay, thanks for the replies.

What does everyone think of Romney?? Does he seriously offer a drastic change to the current government?

I like his business sense but apart from Paul how different are any othem really. They all want to go back to Bush years. Well Bush started the ball rolling and Obama sent it flying.

Even if one of them tries something drastic Congress will fight them tooth and nail.
 
65% Obama
50% Gary Johnson
45% Huntsman
36% Ron Paul

Interesting. First, I'm not voting for Obama. I did the first time around, and while I agree with his ideas, he lacks the backbone and balls to do the right thing, and has caved at every opportunity to stand up and be a leader. Secondly, who the F is Gary Johnson? I'm serious, I don't think I've heard his name, and if I have, it wasn't enough for me to remember. Thirdly, I like Huntsman, but I don't think I'll vote for him either. Fourthly, I'm voiting for Paul -- only because Bordy is.
 
86% - Ron Paul
83% - Mitt

My top two. I will not vote for Paul because he can't beat Obama. I will be voting for Mitt because he is the only person that can beat Obama. My number one choice is Huntsman. Everything conservative candidates say they will do, he has done. Plus, he is middle of the road on worthless issues, ie issues that mean nothing (abortion, gay marriage) that he would be the next Reagan. He is the only guy that could win 49 out of 50 states that is running.

There's a very real possibility that the R's take over all three branches in the '12 elections.

While that thought makes me gag, I also think it might not be as bad as it could be. After all if this current congress has taught us one thing it is that their petty pissing matches are more important than making compromises and decisions to help real people. Maybe if they were all of one flavor they might actually get something done. Of course, that something might be horrifying, so then it makes me gag again. What is worse, a government that infights so much they never do anything or a government so single-minded they only act on the interests of part of the population while at least getting some **** done?

Romney offers no change from the current administration.
Mitt Romney basically wrote Obamacare from his own plan in New Hampshire.
He has been a career flip-flopper on everything from abortion to foreign policy.
The only real change comes from Ron Paul, who will stick to constitutional restraints and get the government out of your life.
