You must hang around a different bunch than I do. Mine are split about 50/50. some already have their Obama 2012 bumper stikers on. (Now standard on all 2012 Prius wagons!)

As many Dems as I have talked with who are disappointed in Obama, myself included, not one of them thinks any one of the Republican candidates would be an improvement and will vote for Obama in the general election. I'm sure none of you are surprised by that.

I hang around a lot of business people, and some younger college grads. All the young ones are very disappointed in Obama. They all voted for him last time, and they are very pragmatic about debt, which will affect them and their future kids greatly. As I said, they wouldn't vote for a rep either, but think 4 yrs is enough. If Obama hasn't figured out how to move us in a better direction in 4 yrs, it is time to get someone else in there. Hillary is the #1 choice. A couple really liked Christie and his no nonsense attitude, but since he isn't running, they don't like any of the rep candidates.
Too bad future generations aren't here to see all the great things we are spending their $$ on!!

So if Romney the Rino won't have any Dems voting for him, we might as well choose Perry or Bachman, right?

Yep. Especially if you don't want any independent voters either.
