I predict Bob Corker (R) Tennessee will be the Republican nominee for President in 2012

1. Cool. Another guy who won't win anything outside of the South

My guess is they'll run Newt

9. I don't think anyone has a chance against Obama, unless major

things happen - that are completely unlikely.

However, I think they are grooming Corker for the future - and, at least from seeing him on some committee hearings (mostly SFRC - to be honest - on both foreign policy and global warming) he is saner than others spoken of. He also was given a "starring role" on the compromise to help the auto industry - that failed to succeed, but was done in such a way to meet all the normal Republican talking points.

I know nothing of him personally - except the nasty ads against Ford. I suspect though - that given the paucity of possibilities, they might save him for 2016.

2. "Corker": sounds like the name of a porno actor

3. As someone who lives down the street from him....

.... FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS GOOD ....... NO!!!!!!!!!!

while the prospects of someone as bumbling as he is being the headliner for the GOP in a Presidential contest are tempting ... I could not BEAR my home town guy running against my Messiah. ;)

Have sympathy on me and stop thinking those things.

4. Better start watching for Corker's out-of-Country "excursions'

Seems to be a common thread with the self righteous Puke scum.

5. Highly unlikely, He's up for re election and he would lose his seat

[WinkyDink]

6. Uh, no. Can't see someone labeled "What a Corker!" going anywhere.

7. Someone who I find really fresh and young from the (R)

is John Thune.but I think he'll hold off till at least 2016 with obamas popularity

[democratdoug]

8. Yep, he spent a lot of his own money to buy his seat.

He's a "yes" man!

[BeyondGeography]

10. Possibly

[Ninga]

11. Hey isn't he the guy in My Cousin Vinny who was cross examined by "Vinny" ?

Bob Corker, the guy on the stand who stuttered???

[blue_onyx]

12. I would love for him to come to my state

and try to convince us that him being president would be beneficial to us after his "let them go under" attitude toward the auto industry. I doubt it will be him. I'm guessing it will be Romney...maybe Pawlenty.

13. Rednecks are popular in the south but just about nowhere else.

[politicasista]

14. Yuk. n/t

[lib2DaBone]

15. Ya, he did SUCH a good job on the coal-slop spill cleanup..

[Uzybone]

16. You mean Bob Corker (R-Nissan) the union buster.
