[QUOTE]Mitt Romney is moving quickly to reassemble his national political network, calling former aides, donors and other supporters over the weekend and on Monday in a concerted push to signal his seriousness about possibly launching a 2016 presidential campaign.

I would be shocked if he even manages to split the NeoCons. This isn't about ideology, this is about winning and losing. When a team has decided that a coach is a loser he gets fired.

They never really liked Romney. I'll never forget the rally where he was rolling Ryan out, the crowd was chanting Ryan's name and Romney grabs the mic to shout, "Romney/Ryan!" He might as well have said, "Love me! Why can't you love me?!!" It was downright sad, and showed two important things: There is no enthusiasm for him from his own base and that knowledge makes him insecure.

I don't know who the Republicans will gather around but it won't be him.

Paul will get the nod. Carson is the only guy that I can see beating him.

Romney's main advantage Is NH, he'll probably win there and get good momentum. Paul will win Iowa and Jeb will likely get SC and will definitely get Florida, but SC could go to Carson if he runs.

It'll be a VERY interesting race, especially if Santorum, Perry and Cain run again

we already wound up with his health care system, so i'm curious what else he wants to give the nation.

i'm thinking that if he wins the nomination it could get a little scary, tho... especially if hillary isn't there to oppose him. too easy for hordes of people to say "oops, i obviously voted for the wrong guy last time. i'll just rectify that mistake since they're giving me a do-over and all."

Yup, the Republican fracture between evangelical and libertarian seems more pronounced than ever.

Meanwhile Democrats almost universally "think" exactly the way theyre told to without a single one daring to go off on his own idealogically. They have the strength in numbers. Kind of like a flock of sheep.

I can't stand the liberals in my province and country (Canada). We have a liberal premier for the province who has sent us into an insane debt with little to show for it, lots of corruption as well. Luckily our conservative federal government is good with spending and kept us afloat during the recession quite well.

So technically I'm a conservative and would probably vote Republican if I was an American, but it's just the bible thumping, childish finger pointing, and a complete disregard for anything the Democrats do well that really throws me off. Throw in some obvious racism and even more votes are lost.

Can someone explain to me why America only has two LEGIT political parties? Theres no way that a country so huge with so many different ethnic, social, linguistic etc groups can be accurately divided into only two political camps. I have political views that are pretty split down the middle, so theres no way I would fit into one camp. How is that democracy?
Because America's 2 party system actually represents more of a choice than most European countries, where all major parties are nearly identical.

You're changing the goalposts.

As I pointed out, she has a 50 point lead in the primaries. This is nothing like the situation in 2008. With the full slate of Democratic options, no opponent has been over 15%. Those are the facts.

Also Republicans have a demographic-structural advantage in winning house Seats, while Democrats have a Democratic structural advantage winning the White House in recent years.

Also Clinton polls very well in Florida. If these states hold true to form and I don't think any of these has moved to being a swing state, and if you add Florida, the Democratic candidate will be president.

Clinton beats Rubio in his own state and is one behind JEB in his own state.

KevinNYC
01-13-2015, 01:05 PM
From recent polling in FL
From Sept.

Clinton, the odds-on Democratic front-runner if she runs, topped all potential Republican challengers in hypothetical matchups, including Florida's own -- former Gov. Jeb Bush and Sen. Marco Rubio.

The matchup with Bush is the closest -- Clinton leads 46%-44%, essentially a tie given the margin of error.

But against the others, Clinton has a clear advantage:

* 49%-42% over Rubio.

From December after more JEB for prez stories
The Saint Leo University Polling Institute found that in a statewide poll, Bush would top Clinton 43 percent to 42 percent. No other potential GOP candidate comes as close, the institute told Secrets.

What’s more, voters are supportive of Bush running for president instead of their popular senator, Marco Rubio. If both ran in the primaries, Bush would receive 43 percent support to Rubio’s 19 percent, the Florida Republicans polled said.

agreed.

The Post poll shows that women say they would support Clinton by a striking 61-33 percent. Men, though, say they would back her by a far smaller count of 49-46 percent -- within the margin of error. That's a 25-point gap between Clinton's margin among women and among men.

Romney leads in a recent poll in Iowa.
http://www.startribune.com/politics/statelocal/288435811.html

A poll of registered Iowa Republicans released Tuesday shows that Mitt Romney, the party's 2012 presidential candidate now mulling another run in 2016, is currently leading a large field of prospective challengers. Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker came in third, behind former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush.
The nation-leading Iowa caucus is still about a year off, but prospective candidates have already started to openly discuss the race. The Washington Post reported on Monday that Romney, a former governor of Massachusetts, is "almost certain" to run again, and has been discussing it with a number of close allies including former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty.
The poll by Gravis Marketing, a Florida-based pollster, found Romney leading a field of eight other potential candidates with the support of 21 percent of respondents. "Romney's name recognition and the loyalty Republicans have for their last nominee give him an opportunity that no one else has," said Doug Kaplan, the manager partner of Gravis Marketing.
Bush, the brother and son of the two former President Bushes, was next with 14 percent. Walker, recently re-elected to a second term as Wisconsin's governor despite a divisive first term that saw a failed recount attempt, was in third place with 10 percent. A number of additional potential candidates scored support below 10 percent. In order, they were: Mike Huckabee, Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Paul Ryan, Chris Christie and Marco Rubio. Another 18 percent of poll respondents were undecided.

If Huckabee still believes the earth is 4000 years old he's not going to sniff becoming the republican nominee.

Dumbass doesnt realize he doesnt have social skills to be elected president.

American elections are just popularity contests, and mitt is too socially awkward


So should he start smoking pot and take selfies with gangbangers in the hood??

Both Romney and Bush have seen their popularity drop even among Republicans once they indicated they were running.

I think Americans prefer their presidential candidates not to run for president.

Romney's favorable rating has dropped 5 points and Bush's 7 points since their 2016 news started revving up.

A Republican will be President in 2016 no matter what. It's gonna either be Hilary Clinton, Bush, or Romney

No but, he should be able to speak with groups of people without making gaffs regularly.

Eg. saying he is also unemployed (while making $12 million a year) to real unemployed people.
Eg. trying to prove he is a fan of the NFL by pointing out he is friends with many owners.

It's going to be funny when the races start. Obama running brought all the racism out of the Republican voter woodwork. It'll be sexism this time around.

Democratic party should definitely run a gay Jew next time just to round out the hate.

To be fair the GOP has very few problems with Jewish people in 2015.

Eg. Arguably the GOP is more pro israel.

Arguably?

The evangelical wing is more pro Israel than Bibi Netanyahu.

There is a huge amount of israeli support in the DNC.

Bernie sanders, defended israeli the last war with gaza.
Elizabeth warren defended israeli bombing UN schools.

The most vocal anti israeli politician in america that is reasonably well known was probably ron paul.

There is a wing of the GOP that is the most anti israel part of US politics.

*Besides smaller parties (Libertarian, Constitution, Greens etc.)

That group is pretty small though. It's basically a handful.
