I voted no for the same reason that I believe we should let it all burn.

I think the missing word is "win."

And the answer is, unfortunately, "no."

The GOP has to get its head out of its ass. And it can't do it as long as it keeps putting shitheels like Steele and Priebus on the throne.

And going to war against the Tea Partiers.

And failing to oust non-performers like Boner.

And otherwise failing to grow a set of ****ing
GONADS.

No. And neither can a member of the RINO party.

Okay my answer to the question can a republican win the next Presidential election, is yes.

Now if you had asked if I thought it was likely a repuke would win, I would take the easy way out and say maybe.  :-)

I would like to think another 4 years of 8% unemployment and deficits as far as the eye can see, and all the new taxes coming at us, that the democrats would be an endangered species for awhile, but after witnessing what happened in November I doubt it.

2 reasons I think the GOP winning, (notice I didn't say us), is not likely are,
1:whoever runs will run on 0bama's record of freebies for all, and people will probably want to protect 0bama's legacy by not putting a repuke in office, 2:considering how the GOP is acting now, they will be running a progressive in 2016 and conservatives will stay home.

I apologize for omitting "win."

We won't see another Republican president until the GOP leadership pulls it's head out of it's ass and stops running DEM-Lite candidates.

IMO.

If amnesty and voting rights are given to illegals, it is all over. We are done. If not, there is a chance if Rubio is the candidate.

I voted maybe provided the rich Yankee elites and broke d!ck RINO's don't pick the Repub candidate again.

No.  A Republican will never win another Presidential election again. 

Between the Democrats gerry rigging the elections and the wholesale spinelessness and lack of guiding principles being adopted by the Republican party, the Republican party is as dead as the Whigs.  They're just too stupid to realize it.

Yes they can.  But it's gonna have to be a candidate the people want...not someone picked consultant that's never won an election in their life...or one that's hand picked by Teh Rove.

Palin...Rubio...Cruz...Hell even Allen West could win. 

The trick is going to be ending this intercene war between the Rockerfeller Republicans (RINO's) who think it's more important to get along than actually win...the Paulbot 100%'ers and the rest of us that want a return to the Regan Doctorine.  We're playing into the Libtards hands as long as we're fighting with each other.

Reagan won despite the media...he talked directly to the people in a way that they understood and it cut through the fear mongering of the three networks ant the NY Times.  Palin spoke like that to the people and not only did she get smeared by the Libs...but by her own party as well.

IMO I think it's gonna take the RNC getting hit in the wallet or turning them into the 10% also ran party to get what myself and others here view as a "Republican" candidate elected.
