There's always Sarah Palin or Michelle Bachman
You're insane, right? Completely and utterly mad?
I like Rick Perry. He's not totally screwed up my life, and has been in the game long enough to know how not to totally destroy something.
I would love to have Ron Paul in office, I just know that isn't going to happen. Too many big government folks out there, and most of his own party don't like (or are neutral to an extent) his libertarian ideals. As a libertarian myself, it would make me very happy to see someone who can do something I don't think is retarded in office. I'd pick either of them over Obama any day of the week, and if it were my choice I would go with Paul.
Perry's going to win the nomination. To be honest, I think he's going to completely obliterate all of them. Even with his social conservatism, I'd rather have him in there than Obama. Obama has flip flopped too much, and tends to weasel his way out of things. Combined with his massively diminishing charisma and leadership skills, a second term with him might be a bad idea.
