You are right about that. There is no way I can see her turning this thing around.
“We don’t promote House members to the presidency. It’s only happened once, in a freak 4-way election. She has zero executive experience.”
Still, it would’ve helped if she didn’t come across as unhinged.
Michelle shot herself in the foot. It’s not like we weren’t willing to give her a fair hearing.
At best, She is an anti Palin plant of the DNC.
After her getting so emotional and obsessive about Perry and the HPV vaccine, I could no longer visualize her speaking rationally, calmly and professionally to world leaders. (and Bachmann had been my first choice)
I agree with her positions and I believe she is conservative, but she isn’t presidential in my mind. She was standing on good ground attacking the EO but when she went into her telling of that sad, pitiful, woman and child— she lost me.
I also lost respect of how she made a vaccine that can save lives— political. That was WRONG, in my belief. She is right, she is NOT a doctor, she should have kept her mouth shut there.
There are the anti-vaccine folk and that’s fine but I have a great respect for vaccines and on that I won’t change.
Michelle is sounding like she is singing her “swan song”. She was just telling the party not to elect a moderate and go with a strong conservative. She didn’t say that the conservative had to be her.
I wish she hadn’t gone after Perry and help Mitt in that 2nd debate. Maybe she would be doing better.
I just saw her on BOR. She looked and sounded GREAT!
She’s going to hang in there and not leave until her book is released in Nov....
Absolutely right about Bachmann overplaying her hand during the debate. She broke Reagan’s rule about saying bad about a fellow Republican. I lost much confidence about her unfounded accusations against Perry.
BTW: I also lost much of my vigor for Perry during the last debate.
I could vote for Cain and feel comfortable that he would do right by America.
I am going down Saturday to see Cain.
I do not know why but Cain seems to be more solid in his thinking.
I hope she packs up her clown car and goes home to run for re-election. I like her but she jumped the shark on too many issues. Promising $2 gas? Gardisil causing mental retardation? You should keep 100% of your money?
Leaning towards Cain now.
LOL Some split, 37% for Cain and 14% for Perry. Ummm that's not a split and Cain should have been mentioned first since he WON.
If she drops out she should endorse Cain.
2ndDivisionVet: “She has zero executive experience.”
As much as I like her ideology and would like her to play an active role in a future Republican administration, I have to agree. Ideology is vitally important, but it’s not my only requirement. I also want to believe she has the necessary skill set to be the nation’s chief executive. I just don’t see that. Again, I think she’s a great person. I’m just not convinced she’s presidential material. Typically one proves their executive bona fides by actually serving in executive positions prior to running for the most powerful job in the world. She hasn’t done that.
How do you feel about the Federal Reserve Board, and Federal Reserve Currency?
She shouldn’t have kept up with the gardasil attack, but, there have been cases of death and paralysis.
Records Document 3,589 Adverse Reactions Related to Gardasil between May 2009 and September 2010, Including 213 Cases Resulting in Permanent Disability
I am going down Saturday to see Cain.
I do not know why but Cain seems to be more solid in his thinking.
**************
Cain was impressive on Greta tonight, I really like him. I am not quite on board with the 9-9-9.
I had been completely Bachmann, but I had started to doubt her before Perry.
After her spaz-out, I became Perry, Newt, Cain.
Now, I am Newt, Cain, Perry. I don’t trust Newt to stay where he is, I don’t really like 9-9-9 and Perry screwed up.
I don’t think perfection is on the horizon—damn the humanity! :)
Can you explain to me how the lack of executive experience disqualifies House members but not senators? Sometime we will start reverting to the mean.
