Kos is definitely far left, but Research 2000 is a professional, non-partisan research org with good cred. Kos hired them to do the poll. Results valid.

I think the above comments form Lori nail it, (except it's, "spend like a Republican" when you look at the last 40-60 years ,g>) but I can't see them damping down the religious right - they needed it for any win in the past 10 years.

We just have to see what happens with the various Tea Baggers - if they collapse totally (kind of what it looks like right now), or if they (any one of the groups, there are several and they are all infighting) can muster up candidates for 2010. The GOP is already scared the Baggers will take votes from the right candidate, like what happened in New York Congressional District loss.

I'm just finishing up "Game Change", the story of the 2009 elections. McCain was an irresponsible idiot who didn't really want to be Pres. He wanted Lieberman as VP. They gave him Palin as a political move. They didn't vet. They immediately learned they had a disaster on their hands with her. They would try to put out fires, and she would just outright lie. Pretty riveting reading.

I watched Palin with O'Reilly, and with Beck when Faux News hired her - I think both those professional actors know, from those interview responses, now that she's dumb and useless. Good for winking and spouting platitudes, but not a working brain cell to be found.

For example, Palin is currently calling for Rahmbo E to step down, as he called a Dem plan "effing retarded". Palin, who has a Down baby, is incensed over the use of the word retarded and has compared it to racial slurs and the N-word, and called for his firing.

Unfortunately, before saying this, Palin has apparently forgotten that on the campaign trail last year, her staff witnessed and have publically talked about her stepping off stage, etc., then asking, "Where's my retarded baby?" about Trig (who she carried around on her hip like a prop, much to the chagrin of Down organizations who wondered why the child wasn't getting the special schooling such children need to maximize their potential)

Yeah sure, she is the antichrist!

Funny thing is how she has established herself as this evil genius that holds such a position of power, yet you constantly remind us that you think she is dumb. Hard to have it both ways...

i disagree with that. the religious right isn't going to leave a centrist republican ticket and vote for a dem. instead of republicans pandering to the far right, they should be moving to the center-something they always seem to demand of the party across the aisle. the party both sides need to attempt to please are all of us who don't affiliate ourselves with a party. independents were who forced a change in massachusettes; that should be a wakeup call to both parties.

Really? According to independant polls (gallup,pew,etc) out there, she is one of the three leading candidates to win the republican nomination. Do you want me to post the links?

If you poll strictly REPUBLICANS her numbers are quite higher. This isnt some conspiracy, this is fact.

I have said it once and I will say it a thousand times- this is the problem with the republican party Charles. You have created these monsters like Sarah Palin and now you don't know what to do with her. The base is hopelessly split. A conservative with a brain couldnt possibly vote her into office but his alternative is a mormon...from mass! LOL

Good luck with that 4 year obama thing.

all very, very true. all the republicans can hope for is someone to come out of the woodwork, ala clinton the first time he ran. when he threw his hat in the ring, no one really gave him a shot.
palin is a pathetic joke. i don't like huck, or gingrich either. if romneys only toss (and i don't know that it is the only one) is that he's mormon, that means nothing to me-but it will to many, which is another shame.
i don't care if obama gets another term. congress evidently will swing to the other side come november, which means hopefully more working together in congress. you have to work together when no one can just muscle through legislation. the country is split, it seems only fitting that the govt should be as well.

but it wasn't long ago that everyone was sticking a fork in the dems, saying they were floundering without a face, someone to lead them. we know how that's worked out. we've been here before, more than once.

There is a moderate Illinois Republican ( pro-choice, gun control ) who won the Republican nomination for Obama's Senate seat named Mark Kirk. He has a chance to follow the same path Obama did if he wins the November election against a beatable Democrat.

But you are right..no pun intended..the Cons have to fight someone formidable because there cast of usual suspects won't get it done in 2012 no matter how much the extreme right hates the President.

I'm conservative and if Palin gets the nod in 2012 I have a better chance of writing in "Booth Operator" than voting for that scum bag.

I've leaned republican over the years with the exception of GWB 2nd term and McCain/Palin (which was more a vote for change and against Palin). In 2012 I will vote for who I feel will do the best job.

PS.

I feel Obama inherited an absolute steaming pile of S*h*i*t and the bank bailout had to be done since the credit markets were seized. Not happy with him trying to jam healthcare but I will wait another year before I would consider him a failure.

Just a guess. The rah rah display reminds me of Twilight fans swooning over the gay vampire.
