There is no Republican leader on the horizon for 2012. All the names being mentioned such as Gingrich, Palin are a "defeat shoo in". The only one with an outside chance to provide some competition for Obama is Romney. But will the Republicans go for a "Mormon"?

The Clintons are smart and know better to wait it out until 2016 instead of perpetuating an internal battle at a time when there is an internal battle raging within the Republican party.

GOP says compromise not on the agenda if they retake the House

Republicans aren't interested in compromising with President Obama on major issues if they retake the House or Senate, a senior GOP lawmaker said.

"Look, the time to go along and get along is over," said Rep. Mike Pence (Ind.), the chairman of the House Republican Conference. "House Republicans know that. We’ve taken firm and principled stands against their big government plans throughout this Congress, and we’ve got, if the American people will send them, we’ve got a cavalry of men and women headed to Washington, D.C. that are going to stand with us."

Pence said his party wouldn't compromise on issues like spending or healthcare reform, two of the weightiest items on Congress's agenda next year, when the Republicans could control one or both chambers.

"Look, there will be no compromise on stopping runaway spending, deficits and debt. There will be no compromise on repealing Obamacare. There will be no compromise on stopping Democrats from growing government and raising taxes," Pence told conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt Thursday evening. "And if I haven’t been clear enough yet, let me say again: No compromise."
