Republican Primary Poll
Now that the Republican primary field has taken shape it's time to put out another poll and see who everyone would support at this point.

It is still possible that another big name or two will jump in the race before it is all said and done, but history has shown that the late comers do not fair well in the Presidential primaries. Most likely the Republican Presidential nominee will be one of these men. Cast your votes!

RE: Republican Primary Poll
For the record, I am pretty confident at this point that Mitt Romney is going to win the nomination based on the money he can raise and his political machine/connections. If any of the other candidates shows signs of being able to compete with Romney, I might switch my support to them just to keep Romney away from the nomination.

But regardless, I think it is unlikely that any of these candidates can beat President Obama in 2012.

Huntsman is a common sense moderate. He may have to say a few wackey things to get the GOP nod but in the end he is the most attractive candidate for the general election.

That where I stand... I don't know why some see him as 'moderate'... Aside from AGW where is he not a solid conservative?

I still don't think Palin will run. Her poll numbers are too low for her to have a shot at winning the nomination. Most likely she is going to milk the "I may be running" narrative to promote herself in the same way that Donald Trump did.

If I had to pick one other big name person not on this list that might still jump in the race, then I think it would be Michele Bachmann. Not because I think she can win the nomination, but because I think she might be angry that the nomination front runners(Romney, Pawlenty, Gingrich) are not conservative enough and she might want to provide an alternative option for Tea Party voters.

You should keep in mind Thatcher's comment.

I know Obama bribed you by throwing money to those corporate overlords in Detroit, using OPM. Despite the fact that you're cheap, there's only so long that *horing can go on.
