Obama in FULL COURT PRESS...able to shoot 3 pointers in a single bound
No smart GOPer gonna run for the OVAL...only the most delusional will remain and pursue with money and energy...

They will end up with a THROWAWAY CANDIDATE...Same as McCain/Palin....

Who will risk losing 18 months and treasure to end up losing???

My bet is Mitt and or Hucky....

Trump is into self destruction at the moment

7. Right, but let us be honest who watches those two...
Us Progressives! The major media is calling him out a bit on the Birther issue but they are not saying much about the other lies & complete reckless ideas he has for foreign policy! Like taking Iraq's oil & any OPEC Country that does not do as we say!

I don't know I have seen the American people fall in love with JOCK MENTALITIES, AUTHORITARIANS & GOOF BALLS are rolled into one package...Plus, Trump has huge name recognition & so-called business reputation that people will fall for.

Call me paranoid but you can't say I don't have historically good reasons!

14. Trump's problem is premature ejaculation
He blew he load about a year too early. Obviously he can't run as a candidate now with "The Apprentice" still on TV. The media was amused for a few weeks but they are already growing bored.

Trump has too many skeleton's he'll have to face if he runs too.

2. Actually, full court press is a defense.
It's kind of what the Repubs have been doing to Obama & the Dems since the beginning. There are different strategies against the press. One of them is to bring the ball up the middle. You want to keep the ball in play until you have a good shot, but don't make bad passes. The opposing team is hoping the press will rattle you, forcing you into a turnover before you get a chance to score. Let's hope Obama plays this right.

3. Obama can leap the court in a single bound and shoot from the hip and get 3 points
He got his GAME FACE ON...maybe that work better than Press....(wink)

5. You don't want to deliberately shoot from the hip in basketball.
I think you should try another sport for your metaphor :)

8. Probably correct, heard this analysis on Lawrence or Rachel last night.
'Smart' ones unlikely to bother facing incumbent, will save themselves for next time around.

13. Who is going to be the Bob Dole of 2012?
Let's face it, no decent candidate wanted to run in 1996 either. How else do you explain such a dull candidate as Bob Dole.

The GOP powers were grooming one of the Bush Brothers to run in 2000. 1996 was too early for them. My guess is they are grooming someone else to be the big guy - probably Walker, Kasich, Christie or Scott. If one of those guys manages to win their 2nd term they will be running for president in 2016.

15. Yesterday, MSNBC had some guy named
Johnson on, and he's running with the R's. He is pro marijuana and pro gay. He is hoping for progressives to vote for him too. He used to be Governor of NM a few years back. I think he has the better chance than any of the dipshits the R's are running with.
