Just so long as they're entertaining.

I'd like to see some of the questions from 2008 brought back, like: "Do you agree with evolutionary theory, do you believe human contribute to greenhouse gases," etc.

If Luna was a furry, she'd sex humans and scream "BEASTIALITY!" at the top of her lungs at inopportune times.

I like the Luna one. She is a good one.

We need the Rent Is 2 Damn High Party to run.

They joined the republicans.   :|

Anyway, my guesses at this moment:

Romney
Huckabee
Gingrich
Bachmann
Jindal
Christie

Drop Bachman and Christie and add Tim Pawlenty and Ron Paul and I think you've got it. I'd see that as essentially a race between Romney and Jindal, but I could be underestimating the sheer stupidity and craziness of the voting bloc we're talking about.

Ron Paul is essentially the new Harold Stassen.  Entertainment value only.

And Bachmann is already jabbering about running.  The teabaggers are becoming incontinent with glee.

Paul always runs, but I agree he's irrelevant.  Even his followers, once legion on the internet and able to for massive rallies, don't bother to do anything but jabber on about how they really started the tea party movement (because apparently using the word 'tea party' at one fund raising event back in 2008 gives them a monopoly on the term).

I actually think Christie would have a fairly decent shot at beating Obama and if there is any un-declared candidate keeping the Obama re-election campaign up at night, it's him.  Obama will easily handle any of the other morons being considered, including Romney. 

Please to understand I'm not saying I would WANT Christie to win.  Just observing that he seems to have the most broad appeal compared to the others.

Pun unintended.   

Christie is the wingnut superstar of the moment, it is true.

I still think Obama would win the election, as moderates would still favour him, but it wouldn't be anything like the thrashing he dished out on McCain.

Heh.  Who would they stick him with, VP-wise?

Christie/Bachmann or Christie/West.  I like it already.

Huckabee.  He scored quite highly on a recent NBC/WSJ poll, and has been much more high profile of late.  He could shore up Christie's not so impressive Southern Fundie credentials, too.

Edit: just noted, PPP polls indicate Huckabee would give Obama a hard run, with a 44/47 split in Obama's favour, a full three points ahead of what Romney is projected to get, and the closest out of all declared Republican candidates thus far.

LMNO

He released a dude on parole who then went on to kill four police officers.  That's a tough workaround.

Cain

Apparently, The People do not care, so long as he has the right values.

Not to mention, Wayne DuMond, who went on to kill and rape 2 women after Huckabee convinced the parole board to release him 25 years early for a rape conviction.

That's some impressively bad judgment given the recidivism rates for murder and sex crimes...

Christ, out of that batch Romney and Jindal are among the most sane... Surely the Tea Party wouldn't stand for that! Also, Jindal has smudgy skin.

Eh, Jindal killed his chances a long time ago when he did that bad Mister Rogers impression after the first State of the Union address.
