…and I think it really locks in the presidency in 2012 for Obama. Mitt is out because he’s one of the chief architects of Obamacare. Anyone who’s proposed or endorsed a real life plausible healtchare solution in the past is toast. Sarah Palin, Mike Huckabee and Ron Paul are pretty much the only ones left. The primaries are going to be a load of laughs.

Tough call. I think we can also add Jindal and Pawlenty.

The was I see it Palin, Huckabee, and Paul (most definitely) are not going to be good in polling. Jindal and Pawlenty will do much better. Romney shouldn’t be counted out. He still has that stage presence that can win voters. I think he’s going to run. He has the money (his own) and with the recent Citizen’s United ruling he’ll be able to attract more cash then he did in 2008. He will run contrary to the complaining of the Tea Bagging contingent and in general he will be forgiven for his past history regarding abortion and RomneyCare. So the top three will be Jindal, Pawlenty and Romney.
