PING!

She will be awfully tough to beat should she run.
No matter what she decides to do in this election run-up, she will be such a large part of the heart-and-soul of the core of Americans and American spirit. A class act....and she does not have to be a fraud or a criminal liar to be the best. It just comes naturally for a REAL American.
+2!
Hey! Where in the heck is the teleprompter! How can she be taken seriously? (do I really need the /sarc?)
this speech shows how outclassed Bachmann is next to Palin.
"You can accomplish much if you don't care who gets the credit. " ..
Thanks for the reminder. Wasn't that a plaque on Reagan's desk?
I’ve been reading Going Rogue this week. It’s a page turner, and it really should be called “A Common Sense Political Manual”, but Sarah is too modest to consider it.
If anyone here hasn’t read this book, READ IT NOW! It’s a battery charger as well as a powerful tome. Bob
This is a generality of course, but I think a lot of it comes down to how people view priorities. On one hand you have the flyover country people that (generally) look at a problem and work to solve it, whereas the beltway/city types generally want to solve the problem and get the credit - classic social climbing.
Regular people, Joe Sixpack types just aren’t into the whole “Look at me” thing and just want ‘the problem’ fixed period, end of discussion.
Two very different mindsets indeed.
There is a certain other candidate who has been through so many office staff if they said "we" they'd have to add a day/date.
When you hear the current crop of DC candidates talk you see a lot of that. Not a poor reflection, it is what it is. People with a proven record of success as an executive can look past the "eaches" into the big picture. See the desired end state and understand the cause and effect relationships that brought a bad situation to that point then help construct a way forward. That is why I prefer candidates with executive experience as President. It is not negotiable.
Ooh ooh, I know! You're talking about "Callista and Eye of Newt", right? Or whats-er-name that's tied with Newt in the turn over department?
;>)
I tend to agree. Also I think the country as a whole is guilty of ‘category error’ when we go to elect out reps/Prez. (I think you were in on the thread the other night discussing CE with Islam - correct me if I’m wrong).
But we often put the wrong type of man/woman in positions where they are categorically unfit to operate. As you say, an executive type sees the big picture and doesn’t bog down in the details, whereas we tend historically, with exceptions, to elect the opposite.
Too funny. :)
