They are both slimebags and both subscribe to the "I'll do anything to get elected" mantra. That is dangerous.

I think Perry, Santorum (I mean man on dog), and Carson will run as well. It's a shame DU limits a poll to 10 when this is one time when ten is not enough....CLOWNS! HARHARHAR

Absolutely, even with his negatives, John Poet Feb 2015 #16

Sorry, I just can't take anyone of them seriously. merrily Feb 2015 #2

Kasich has fewer negatives than the others. Jim Lane Feb 2015 #3

Walker because he will have the Oligarchs behind him. OregonBlue Feb 2015 #4

You think? Even with the ghost of Terry Shiavo? napi21 Feb 2015 #19

Yep even. I have little confidence in the memories of voters. yellowcanine Feb 2015 #23

He isn't running, but I think Jon Huntsman HappyMe Feb 2015 #9

agreed. n/t Sheepshank Feb 2015 #10

Jon Huntsman would be the better candidate, his problem, he is sane and does Thinkingabout Feb 2015 #28

We should thank our lucky stars he isn't running. HappyMe Feb 2015 #29

And happy he did not get through the primary last time Thinkingabout Feb 2015 #32

The people who feel optomistic about Huntsman are Dems! napi21 Feb 2015 #37

I think the corporate PTB don't want someone like Huntsman running for the Republicans... cascadiance Feb 2015 #31

They are all in with corporations though some try to say differently, they have Thinkingabout Feb 2015 #33

Here is where you are wrong, he never makes it through the primaries. Nt Logical Feb 2015 #41

Santorum, if it's him versus Hillary. beerandjesus Feb 2015 #13

Oh, but he won't. These guys can't help it. CTyankee Feb 2015 #15

We should be so lucky to have Santorum as the chosen nominee! napi21 Feb 2015 #35

I think Jon Huntsman is the only one who could have actually had a chance. oldandhappy Feb 2015 #17

Probably Rosa Luxemburg Feb 2015 #45

Pataki probably could win it all but can't get the nod. When it come right down to it they have alot craigmatic Feb 2015 #38

I should've included Pataki with Fiorina, Graham, and King as the self-delusional possibilities. Jim Lane Feb 2015 #39

Walker and Kacich are unknown nationally and can be made over Dawson Leery Feb 2015 #40
