Obama made some questionable remarks (still does IMHO) during his campaign, and weathered the storm to win the nomination, and then the election. Hell, Obama literally helped create Joe the Plumber, who now may run for a House seat from Ohio.

A pretty good chunk of the Dem base wanted Hillary - including some on this forum. A lot of Dems agreed that they'd rather have Hillary answering the phone at 3:00 AM. Yet, many of those same Dems ended up voting for Obama and not staying home on election day.

There is no "perfect candidate" on either side of the aisle. If there was, we wouldn't have had folks like Dole, Dukakis and Mondale winning their party's nominations.

10-4. I still think Romney has this thing wrapped up. Anyone else (other than Huntsmann who has no chance - unfortunately) would be political suicide for the GOP.

I know I'm missing some of the ironic flavor of your comment because of the limitations of this medium - but - To what establishment to you refer and what people currently dislike this establishment? Aside from that, where do you place Romney's chances of gaining the nomination?

Oh, and was Romney involved in some sexual activity with a teen runaway? Not accusing him of anyting, but that is in the title of the thread and we re discussing Romney, so there must be some connection.

We sure can wander! Who knows, maybe he's married to one

The right right now () has a stronger dislike of government than I've ever seen, and yeah I remember 94 (although it's gettng hazey!).

Obama, Romney, Clinton, Bush, all establishment politicians - they really work for the government. Perhaps with Obama pretty unpopular and the nasty mood on the right we'll get a true cutter. But I doubt it. I think his chance at nomination is very high, 50-60 or better?
