To me Palin is “highly qualified”, Bachmann is not.
Bachmann is mostly a good speaker and we see where that got us. She doesn’t hold a candle to Sarah’s accomplishments in governing or policy statements. I just see Bachmann as riding the wave of huge discontent without really understanding the ramifications of what she’s saying. And frequently what she says doesn’t have a ton of substance.
That’s just my opinion.
Bachmann has been saying the same thing since she arrived in Washington. I don’t think she’s riding any wave. The country is finally waking up and realizing that she has been right all along.
She is equally qualified to Sarah Palin, and, in my opinion, more conservative than Sarah.
Both would be great because they have the right character and ideology, not because of their resume. I will enthusiastically support either.
