I have to say, I'm (and probably President Obama) licking my chops at the vault to the front that Donald Trump has orchestrated.
Gallup's poll out today showing him tied for the lead for the Republican nomination has my Friday started off right.
Next, I'm going to read a list of people who may be running in the Republican primaries for president in 2012...please tell me which of those candidates you would be most likely to support...for president in 2012:
Mike Huckabee......16
Donald Trump......16
Mitt Romney......13
Sarah Palin......10
Ron Paul......6
Newt Gingrich......6
Michele Bachmann......4
Mitch Daniels......3
Tim Pawlenty......3
I personally believe that Donald Trump would get spanked by Obama in 2012, so I can only hope these are the beginnings of great trends for the Don.
I can see the attack ads against this guy, as Eliot Spitzer has been doing some good work showing some of Donald's...discrepancies.
Another glaring nugget in this poll is how bad Bachmann does...4%. I'm not sure what appeal she thinks she has in Iowa or South Carolina, but it is likely to be limited.
If these are the chumps falling over themselves to take on the sitting President, I think it's fair to say we are in good shape.
