Divide the GOP candidates into 3 tiers, not based on electability, but on how much they mirror your policy preferences:
Tier 1 - OMG! Yay! Please Mr(s). candidate, autograph my left breast!
Tier 2 - Meh. At least voting for him/her would give me an excuse to go in late on election day.
Tier 3 - Oh hell no! Obama can keep the damn White House!
Only those people that have announced or have a strong likelihood to announce should be listed.
Current field that I'm aware of:
Michelle Bachmann
Herman Cain
Newt Gingrich
Jon Huntsman
Gary Johnson
Sarah Palin
Tim Pawlenty
Mitt Romney
Rick Santorum
Ron Paul - America's Favorite Angry Gynecologist (or AFAG, for short)

Snuggles, I need four categories, not just three:
1 = Got that ole Reagan feelin' agin
2 = GW Redux
3 = McCain me with a spoon
4 = Stayin' home (I really won't, but I'll be holding my nose and fighting my gag reflex)
So here's how I rate your list thus far:
Michelle Bachmann = 1.5
Herman Cain = 1.5
Newt Gingrich = 3.25
Jon Huntsman = 3
Gary Johnson = 2.5
Sarah Palin = 1
Tim Pawlenty = 2
Mitt Romney = 3
Rick Santorum = 2
Ron Paul - America's Favorite Angry Gynecologist (or AFAG, for short) = 3.5
I reserve the right to change my ratings, based on events as they develop.

Except for Cain, none of the above.

You're saying:
Obama > Bachmann
Obama > Pawlenty
etc.?

No, I don't like the choices. If you want a rating, the field sucks, however any of them would be better than Dear Leader.
