Any Republican running against Obama can beat him?

20 May

So, Sean Hannity said yesterday (19 May 11) on his radio show, that “any of the Republicans” running, or thinking about running, against Obama can beat him … spit take – clean off computer keyboard and screen. Look, I know Hannity has a “special” audience dynamic to play to, but really? How about some kind of “real” analysis Sean?

There is not a single GOP candidate who has said they’re running or who might run – today – who has a snow ball’s chance.

Romney and Huntsman will never win the nomination because the far-right “God fearing Christian” side of the GOTP will never nominate a Mormon.

Newt is a joke and has zero chance.

Santorum and Pawlenty are not electable … especially after Santorum’s claim that John McCain doesn’t understand “enhanced interrogation”. It’s slips like that which show how unready some of these people are for the big leagues.

Would love to see Palin or Bachmann jump into the race just because it would make it very “interesting” – both would be adored by the same far-right groups opposed to Romney and Huntsman – but please, these two are the best and the brightest women in the Republican party? Palin can’t name a single Supreme Court case she disagrees with, and Bachmann thinks humans and dinosaurs coexisted together? Neither is remotely electable.

Whoever runs for the GOTP in 2012 is little more than a sacrificial lamb – which is why Huckabee dropped out, and shows he’s a lot smarter than I ever gave him credit …

The latest polling numbers against GOTP contenders shows the President ahead by double digits against everyone one of the GOTP contenders:

Obama 52 Romney 40

Obama 53 Gingrich 35

Obama 52 Pawlenty 38

Obama 51 Daniels 33

Obama 54 Palin 35

Obama 54 Bachmann 33

Obama 51 Huntsman 31

Even in polling by Rasmussen, none of the current crop even comes close, and when Ron Paul is running around talking about legalizing heroin and prostitution, yeah he’ll play well in Peoria …
