Romney is hardly a Tea Partier.

He will kowtow to them just like the rest of his party does.

Har!

The tone of your reply suggests that you think that characteristic is somehow unique to Mitt Romney? OF COURSE he will kowtow to them, just like every other elected official panders to the full spectrum of voters from their base.

That being said, you had better be praying it's Mitt in 2012 because he's as vanilla as it's going to get there, Erkel.

That finding caps off a stunning two weeks that have seen Trump rising in the GOP field nationally and polling near the front of the pack in crucial early primary states. And while the primaries are still a long way off, and only a few candidates are officially in the field, it raises the question of just how viable a Trump candidacy would be.

In the poll of self-identified Republican adults, Trump and Huckabee tied for first at 19%, followed by Palin at 12%, and Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney at 11% each. Ron Paul placed sixth with 7%, and was trailed by Michele Bachmann (5%), Mitch Daniels (3%), Tim Pawlenty (2%), and Rick Santorum (2%).

Trump posted the biggest gain by far in the latest poll. One month ago, CNN pegged his support at 10%, good for fifth place. But since then, Trump has gone on a media blitz, appearing on cable news shows and repeatedly flogging old conspiracies on the long-since settled issue of President Obama's citizenship.

I'm praying for Donald Trump. It's early... but, he's currently tied for the lead among Republicans.

Also says he is planning to run as an independent if he doesn't win Republican nomination. Win/win for Democrats.

He's not a pussy like Obama and the Rino's

He's be asking Obumer the questions the media didn't the first time around.

He would make him cry
