Schmidt: Palin has trouble with truth
Politico ^ | 01/10/10 | Jonathan Martin

Posted on 01/10/2010 5:35:37 PM PST by writer33

John McCain’s top campaign strategist said in an interview Sunday that Sarah Palin was dishonest as the GOP’s vice-presidential nominee and that her untruths have done long-term damage to her public image.

“There were numerous instances that she said things that were – that were not accurate that ultimately, the campaign had to deal with,” said Steve Schmidt in an interview broadcast on CBS’s “60 Minutes.” “And that opened the door to criticism that she was being untruthful and inaccurate. And I think that is something that continues to this day.”

>> for McCain to stand up for Sarah and all kinds of upside.

And who’s to say this is not planned with respect to the upcoming AZ Senate race.

Nonetheless, Schmidt’s not making any points on the Right.

Schmidt may have had some talent once upon a time, but he’s really stepped in the wrong pile with this. I’m sort of disgusted.

If I had to bet money on it, if I had to bet money on it today, you’d have to say that the people that I think look very good, very strong right now are Governor Romney, Governor Huntsman. I think Newt Gingrich, should he run, is going to be a very formidable, very formidable candidate.................

It sounds like Schmidt is trying to send out some positive vibes to potential, future employers. If Governor Huntsman is a possible candidate, he needs to start doing something to become more widely known. Just can't see Newt having enough appeal as a presidential candidate, unless some unusual events throw things his way.

We know that any Republican Presidential candidate that hires this piece of Schmidt is worth just that.

We are barely hanging onto this country and this guy’s biggest concern is someone that is currently not holding any office whatsoever and he doesn’t complain or fight anything Obama is doing.

Schmidt, McKinnon, Mike Murphy. Anyone that hires these clowns to run their campaigns, don’t vote for them in the Primaries or the General Elections either.

I took it as Schmidt handicapping who his next employer will be. He thinks Romney will be paying his invoices, but in case he doesn’t, he thinks maybe Huntsman or Gingrich will hire him.

I would agree with you. Sarah’s debut speech was excellent for both delivery and content. It showed her potential as a future leader for this country.

A few days ago I pulled up and re-read Obamas’s debut speech at the 2004 DNC convention and it was nothing but lies. People were inspired by the delivery not the content.

Sarah will be ready when her time comes.

Glad to hear that Pawlenty has not gotten Schmidt to represent him. Schmidt is TOXIC, he is just pure evil and a total moron. He knows he will never work this town again, he is just like Kate Gosselyn, trying to get his remaining fifteen minutes of fame, he has it and I bet no one gives a damn about anything that comes out of his homo loving mouth. He makes me sick. Supposed Republicans like him are giving the GOP a bad name, time to kick these ass clowns out
