Nikki Haley planning Feb. 15 launch for 2024 White House bid

Before the Trump era, I thought she would be the first female POTUS because the first female will have to be a Republican — too many R’s and I’s think of Hillary when it comes to liberal women to win a general election.
But there’s no way she’ll win the nomination here. She’s running to be Trump’s VP which is pretty gross. Used to think pretty highly of her but like every other R, bent over for Trump when he demanded.

I agree with you that polls are meaningless this early. But I don't see her having the ability to overcome these initial deficits. Money, fame, and personality are what Rs crave these days. I don't see her with much of any of these traits.Way early....Obama was a long shot in 2007.
This polling was from June 2007....further along in the process than now.
Lets see where she is in June...
New York Sen. Hillary Clinton established her lead among the Democratic candidates early in the process. Since January there have been two occasions when Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, who has been in second place during most of 2007, came within striking distance of Clinton in Gallup Polls, but she has otherwise maintained her lead, which has ranged from 9 to 19 percentage points. In Gallup's latest poll, conducted June 11-14, 2007, Clinton leads Obama by 11 points among Democrats (33% to 21%).
Where the Election Stands: June 2007
With the 2008 presidential race unofficially kicking off around January of this year, voters have now experienced six full months of campaigning. This Gallup Poll review of the election looks at how the early frontrunners for each party's nomination are faring and how the battles for second...news.gallup.com
Liz Cheney could have been POTUS contender in a normal GOP.
She's a coward who won't stand up for her beliefs. Pick someone that will.
One thing is certain...the GOP primary season is going to be a shitshow.
I'll be watching to see how hard - if at all - she goes after Trump or DeSantis. If she is respectful toward either, that might mean she's angling for a VP spot with them.
That's not to say she doesn't really want to be prez, but if she's realistic, she shouldn't burn bridges to second spot on the ticket. After all, she's young enough to run for prez after serving as VP.
Another thought is that Trump can only serve 1 term. So being his VP offers a quicker path to the WH.
I could see he being Ron's VP......not Trumps.
Trump will pick Lake or MTG or Santos or another whack job....
Thank you for bringing some common sense on this haha. No one has any idea who will get the nomination because it is WAY too early. There will be some candidates that are polling well that fall back and those who aren’t polling well move up.Way early....Obama was a long shot in 2007.

Politically this is smart for Haley as others have mentioned on getting her name out there as she has been in the background for a couple of years now.
She has already started framing her message as we need younger leaders and a different generation to move the party forward FWIW
If Lake had won, she'd definitely be on the fast track. But Trump likes winners.
So . . . MTG it is.
A short while ago, we had a preference poll comparing Haley and Pompeo.
Not only did Nikki slaughter Pompeo, but she was equally preferred by left and right.
Should we do a similar heat-to-head with Trump and Nikki?

POLL: Nikki Haley or Mike Pompeo?
These 2 presidential hopefuls are at odds over a claim in Pompeo's new book that Haley was engaged in a plot to dump Mike Pence and assume the Vice Presidency herself. Nikki Haley accuses Pompeo of ‘lies and gossip to sell book’ after vice-president plot claim Former UN ambassador hits back at...

Well compared to Trump and Biden and Mitch and Pelosi ....
All he has to do is call her Nimrata. Having a real name that is foreign and sounds like an insult on it's own will be enough for the right wing bigot base
I liked and would have voted for Amy K. Not once did I think of Hillary.
Edit: I also liked and would have voted for Tulsi. Didn’t ever think of her as Hillary 2.0.
She was on the Trump train. Either she's not very smart, or she has no moral compass. (Could be both.) Either of those should be disqualifying.
She is 51 which is 30 years younger then the current overlords
In presidential terms especially compared to what we have now she's pretty young.
She's a spring chicken comparatively
I just checked this and it helps greatly that Nikki Haley's birthday is on January 20th which makes such comparisons REALLY easy since I don't have to figure out the days. Therefore she will turn 53 on inauguration day 2025.
But if she was elected she would be younger than all but 17 of our presidents when they were inaugurated.
The only hope I have is that DeSantis and Trump fight with each other like crazy in the primaries and split the republican crazy vote allowing a more moderate to appear by themselves and take it from them both. I don't see either Trump or DeSantis conceding to stop it. So maybe it could happen. I don't see it happening, but it could. I may keep my Republican registration just so I can throw one more vote for someone other than those two in Florida. It likely won't help at all, but who knows.
It's not happening. The combined polling numbers for Trump and DeSantis are probably close to 75% of the party. Even if all the non crazies all got behind Haley it's just not enough.
