Congressman Pence is hardly a wimp.Anyone who takes on the Hammer and wins(three times no less) has "guts" .NO ONE in our conference has a stronger backbone than Pence.Did he have a bad day on Hannity once? perhaps.But Pence doesn't bash his oppenents and that is why he is the guy who can win moderate support despite being an "ultra" conservative.

Taking on another Republican tells me nothing. ALL Republicans are willing to take on other Republicans. They just turn to wimps when they have to take on RATS. Pence's performance on Hannity was disgraceful. He couldn't gush all over Davis enough. He consistently referred to him as "his friend".

I listened long enough to know I couldn't stand it any longer and changed stations. You know it had to be bad. The only image I have of Pence from that interview is he is another wishy-washy Republican. Kinda like Bush calling Clinton "his brother". Makes me sick. If Pence had done it once, I would have considered it just political speak but he couldn't say it often enough.

Today a caller to Rush said Pence is not a conservative. I don't know why, he didn't elaborate.

I had a favorable impression of him until the Hannity show.

I do thank you for your posts. I read them and will keep them in mind but Pence has to dig himself out of a hole with me.

You begrudge Mike pence for his remarks concerning Lanny Davis?
As I've said before, you surely then must've hated Ronald Reagan, who referred to Tip O'Neil as his friend.

I can only hope your opinion of Mr. Pence changes as he is a bona fide, Reagan-Conservative.
