Which teabaggers will run for prez?
The teabaggers smell blood. Who'll run? Palin wants to, but she also wants to make millions with her faux books and tv shows. Demint might. Perry won't. Will Angle? Will O'Donnell? Will Newt? On their more sane side, Romney, Huckabee, Daniels, and Pawlenty are probably their top guys right now. Whadda ya think? Gonna be fun to watch.

1. Demint is the Tea Bag Candidate. He'll run, and Palin will support him.
She is NOT running.

5. Yes. The right wing has a wide array of "jobs" ....
Her's is "inflaming the hate within the right wing base" ... She could never govern. But she is pretty good at making poor white guys angry about why they are poor.

Demint is already in Congress ... so you push him to the front of the crazy line. Palin explains why he is so great. Fox will pay her to do it. Even write her lines.

And ... if Bristol can keep from getting pregnant again before marriage, the GOP will find her a home too.

Ohhh ... and Palin's son, what is his name ... "Trash"?, "Trip"? ... "Trump?" ... the one in the military ... he'll be pushed to the front of the line faster than Luke Russert after his father died.

The Palin's are "mid-tier" players and they will ALL be payed to stay there for a while.

After all ... what are the Cheney daughters doing?? Do they have anything to bring to the discussion? No ... are they on TV spouting nonsense regularly, yes.

6. A Teabagger will not be nominated.
The convention will be dead locked.
Chris Christy will be drafted.

10. I think it'll be DeMint or Huckabee because Huckabee will go far religious right and teabagger.

19. Between DeMint & Huckabee
Huckabee will be harder to beat out of the two. DeMint us too far right to have any chance in general.

14. Christie is not a teabagger candidate
He had a primary challenge from a teabagger candidate (Steve Lonegan) and chose to back the GOP establishment congressional candidates in this year's primaries as opposed to the teabaggers. (He later did endorse the one teabagger that won the primary but thankfully lost the general).

17. Hopefully none.
If any of the teatards win in 2012, our economy will go into a downturn worse than the Great Depression. Unemployment will be at least 35% (with underemployment well over 50%), the national debt will be about $30 trillion, and the Dow will be at 1500.
