Who do you think will be the 1st Republican to declare their candidacy for President of the United States?

One is Herman Cain who despite being utterly unqualified and holding insane positions, or rather because of that, is a Tea Party favorite. He is polling around 3%, which is around 7th in this open field. He was a fast food exec and a radio talk show host.

Another is Fred Karger, who is gay and a gay rights activist. He has filed his paperwork with the elections commission but is unlikely to get any votes at all.

There are also two frivolous candidates already in the running but they are not worth mentioning further.
There are no respectable Republican candidates in the offing. There may not be any left in the party. Rather oddly most of the candidates are former Governors, other former office holders, or minor office holders. No senior Senators or large state governors are running; probably because they realize President Obama will be reelected and they would have a better chance in 2016..

You already have a list of no-name nobodies supported only by a small group of friends, families, and their own wallets like Herman Cain and Fred Karger.
When it comes down to it, you have to look at the list of potential candidates that the oil companies see value in keeping around. The list will come down to malleable scum like: Tim Pawlenty, and Mitt Romney.
I personally hope Sarah Palin throws her name in the ring. I love hearing stupid people say stupid things so that I can report that ad nauseam to make them seem more stupid.
