Why the Republicans have not produce a viable candidates yet?

Question

A Mormon
A divorced catholic
A military man in war time where most ppl want to end the war.

Answer 1

As opposed to an ambulance chaser, a carpetbagger, or a socialist?

I didn't realize that being a Mormon was a disqualifier. Thanks for the update.

Answer 2

I look to the Democrats and think the same. WHY is Senator Obama running for the Presidency, when he hasn't even learned the history of his own Senate Chamber (President Kennedy discovered he used a desk that predated the American Civil War, and I'm sure that was both inspirational and enlightening) desk? More to the point, he has only just been elected as a Senator, and is already trying to make a burden on his constituency, by making them vote all over again if he wins. Where is the goodness in that?

It shows me one of two things is true:

1) He never really wanted to be a Senator, and merely used that as a barometer for his potential electability as a President.

Or

2) He has a problem seeing a job through to completion. He was elected to be a Senator for 6 years, not less. (Actually, I have this issue with ANYONE already holding an elected seat, that is running for the Presidency. It's unethical and flagrantly displays disregard for the voters.)

Answer 3

Decent people avoid the Republican party like the plague. The problem for the American public is the Democrats are almost as bad. Still the lesser of two evils is the Democratic party. It doesn't matter who the Dems untimately choose, sane people will vote a straight Democratic ticket.

Answer 4

Which viable candidates have the Democrats produced. In the latest Zogby poll both Hillary and Obama have similar favorable numbers as Romney and Rudy G. The thing is they also have much higher unfavorable numbers than the Republican candidates.

Why is Romney's religious choice an issue. I thought that Government and religion were forbidden by the left? And why make an issue of Rudy G's divorce, don't Liberals want marriage and all its benefits(including divorce) for all? And why attack McCain for his previous military service? HE is typically the Republican that most Democrats can get behind.

It always amazes me when I read a question that starts out with promise and ends up in baseless name calling. Really shows your true colors when qualifications aren't as important as superficial things.

Answer 5

Their trying to figure out how to go around the Constitution and run the Calif. Governor. They love actors they can control, or people that cowards so they can hold that over their heads for control.
Why not find a person that from the working class, do you not think any are good enough to run and do a good job.

Answer 6

They rode on immoral platforms in the past, now they are trying to catchup, they need another 20 years to catchup with America and the rest of the world... the southern evangelical power grab by fear propagation cost US enormous losses, the trails stretches from the white house to Baghdad with deaths destruction and scandals...

Answer 7

All three are viable. Just because you won't vote for them doesn't mean that they are not viable.

The Democrats haven't produced a viable candidate yet either...
A polarizing woman who has far more detractors than supporters.
A wet behind the ears minority. (note I am not saying he is not capable but only that no minority has ever come close to drawing the votes needed)
An ambulance chaser.

Answer 8

There are two great candidates for the republicans,Rudy Guiliani and John McCain both probably beay any democrat.

Answer 9

A persons religion should not be a reason to include or exclude them.

Their marital status should not be a reason to include or exclude them.

A military man has a better prospective on national defense since it was his *** on the line for your little freedom of speech.

They are all fine upstanding american citizens and November 2008 is still a very long way off. I wonder how much we can dig up or bring to light about the "democratic" candidates between now and then.

P.S. Osama, get off yahoo and go back to your cave.

Answer 10

Perhaps you should do more research.
Ron Paul,Tom Tancredo,Duncan Hunter are all running but the media doesn't cover them because they actually would be good candidates what a shame.

Answer 11

Well, considering the democrats haven't had one in 16 years, maybe the repubs are wanting to to give you all the chance in the world to find one but then, you still haven't found one either.
