Midknight Review -- new and revised: The GOP race for the presidency is beginning to heat up. Here are the top five, as of today.

Editor's notes: Here are the top five GOP candidates, announced and unannounced. Newt intend to make a final decision in February of next year. Romney is definitely in, but will not begin serious campaign work until after the midterms. Palin is the most popular within the GOP populace. Tim Pawlenty, Minnesota's Governor, is an extremely qualified candidate but, perhaps, the least known of the five. Mike Huckabee, a likable opponent, has yet to express an interest in running. While his TV show on Fox Weekends, was an obvious effort at keeping him in the head lights of popular opinion, he may have decided that political "show business" is more his calling. In addition to the Fox weekend show, he produces one minute political commentary aired on more than 400 stations, nation wide. And then there is the dark horse in the room - Sarah Palin. Like it or not, she can gather an audience of thousands with the snap of her fingers. Her popularity is growing while her priorities remain in place. More importantly, she does not kiss up to the GOP establishment - a major plus in her favor. Understand the conservative base of the GOP is very much anti-old white RINO. Palin refuses to allow herself to be incorporated into that community of "conservative" impostors, her understandable loyalty to McCain aside.

Expect to see these five joined by others, perhaps a mysterious "unknown," after the first of the year. We are 18 months from the Iowa caucus and the real beginning of the election cycle, 2012. --- jds

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
