Ron Paul is clearly the best choice for conservatives.
Or Christie if he would jump in.

There is going to be a lot of people who voted in 2008 staying home.
JAR at this point are pretty meaningless in terms of next year's election. Both Reagan and Clinton had JAR in the 30's during their first term; both went on to be re-elected. In 1980, Carter had a JAR of 58% ... lost his re-election 10 months later. GHW Bush had a JAR of 89% ... a year and a half later, he too lost his re-election. Bush had a JAR as low as 41% in 2004 ... but just 5 months later, he was re-elected. Conservatives may celebrate Obama's low JAR, but if they think this predicts he will lose next year, they are fooling only themselves.This is a statistic that might work great for liberal talking points but won’t serve them well in the upcoming Presidential election because many republicans and tea-partiers are very unhappy with congressional republicans but they are certain to vote but it won’t be for Obama no matter who the candidates are. It might result in more republicans being thrown out of congress but those dissatisfied voters aren’t going to benefit Obama.
In other words, it is a false sense of security to claim that republican approval ratings are lower than Obama’s or the democrats.
No, it's actually because I listen to what teabaggers say. And yes, it is painful, but I endure it for educational purposes.
You're listening to teabaggers... no wonder. You should be listening to the "tea party". See, there's a difference.

I don't think that's necessarily true. If the candidate is Romney, for example, I think a lot of tea party people would stay home. I also think a lot of regular republicans would stay home.
False. The majority of tea party folks are not going to stay home ever again. They are determined to continue to make changes and hold people accountable, that includes people they elect.
Congressional races will matter to these people, they wont stay home. It wont matter who the candidate is, they understand the importance rep, senate and local races to changing leadership overall, not just at the top.

They are the minority and when the rest realize just what the real agenda is...the teaparty will not outvote them
As low as Obama's approval rating is, it's 10 points higher than the Tea Party's approval rating.
The tea party isn't up for Presidential re-election next year.

The Tea Party doesn't have to have a wide popularity approval. They only have to be popular where the important races are. California can decide that their approval rating is 10% and it doesn't matter.
Wisconsin was going to show them also. It didn't happen.

Great point, the November 2010 elections and the recall election in Wisconsin continues to defy the liberal elites and their so called expertise.
Really? Two hard-core Republican seats went Democratic.
Nope, sorry, I just can't go there. Although I like what Dr. Paul has to say on the Fed, and some of his core principals concerning constitutional governance, he looses me, and I think a lot of mainstream voters when he starts in with the blaming America for the worlds ills, as well as 9/11, then there was this at the debate...
Isolationism is not the answer, and for Paul to think that Iran should be allowed to develop nukes without hindrance from us is dangerous.

Obama's Approval Rating Drops to Lowest Ever, According to Gallup
Considering Obama is the first president to preside over a downgrade in the US credit rating and doesn’t have the stones to admit he is partially responsible, choosing instead to blame Bush, the tea party, congress and anyone but himself, this doesn’t surprise me.
THE MORE HE BLAMES OTHERS THE WORSE IT GETS FOR HIM. He was again blaming congress and BSing people on his tour.
One Republican cheated on his wife, Republicans still control the Senate
Unfortunately for Obama, that's about all he can do... blame the Congress and everyone else except himself. All he's really got is the abortion of a Health Care bill that does the opposite of cut down healthcare costs and being the President who actually was in office when Bin Laden was killed. The rest of his first term equates to a turd in a punchbowl.
