While we should not be “settling” at election time...at this point, I think I’d take either of them over what we got now.
I don’t get it either. She and Coulter are both originally from CT (as am I). I think that type (educated NE woman) may have a preference for northeasterners.
I don’t know about those statements, but I’ve gradually stopped listening to her radio show the past few months. She was always so against amnesty, and use to have JD Hayworth sub on her show occasionally. But she never came out in favor of JD, as much as she disagreed with McCain in the past. At least she never came out for JD while I still listened to her show.
She’s bouncing around on the issues and her show is too much of an infomercial for her new book.
We Americans never cease to amaze me sometimes; the same thing with Charlie Crist.....he’s winning in the polls running as an independent after lying to everybody about refunding political funds and not running as a third party candidate. It’s hard to believe anybody can believe Romney after flipping on every major issue when the winds blew differently as has McCain (with Palin’s support).
He does have a little bit of fiscal sense though... so he would be marginally better than 0bama. I still would not be able to vote for him though.
I don’t consider any liberals to be PROGRESSIVE.
The media refers to the demos as progressive and concervatives as neocons.
The demos are anything but progressive.
My god, Romney is a RINO, but calling him a progressive is an idiotic smear.
I doubt it really matters what she thinks/says about these two. Seems highly unlikely either could win enough primaries to matter.
She is a commentator, not a President maker. At this point in time, I believe in her integrity and intelligence.
Patience is required to grow a good crop.
Is she living in DC again? Beltway-itis seems hard to kick for many.
Closer to communist than progressive!
Howie Carr, also, sees many RINOS as being conservatives, including Mitt Romney. Howie, also, sees RomneyCare as being what prevents Romney from winning the ‘12 POTUS race, and Howie knows about the frequent FR posting of the picture of leftists swarming around Governor Romney as Mitt is signing RomneyCare into law.
Mittens is of the RINO species! Survival of the middlest!
Romney isn’t as conservative as I wish he was, but I don’t know if it’s fair to call him a “progressive”. He’s just an unfortunately middle-of-the-road republican.
I think her and Michelle Makin should get ORiley’s show and he should get a goose egg.
“What Gives?”
Establishment GOP
Rommney is a two-faced double dealing rump-swab. His RINO nose is far up Michael Steele’s butt. He royally screwed up Massachusetts with his “Rommneycare” BS — and lefty Patrick Duval kept the abomination in place (that in itself should tell you something about the real Rommney) If not for Mittens, Massachusetts would not have become the ice-breaker for homosexual “marriage.” Rommney rolled over on that like a trained RINO lap-dog... same as the rest of the establishment RINOs that control the MA GOP.
Mitt Rommney is a smooth-talking, back stabbing “moderate” ... a wolf in sheep’s clothing that talks a good game, but bends you over to grab your ankles every time.
Well, sometimes her show is rather dull. She is also the worst interviewer you will ever listen too, especially with guests she disagrees with. She can be shockingly rude to them. Other than that she's OK. Her new book sounds hilarious. I read some lefties are calling it racist, so it must be on target.
I like Laura. She is pretty much right on.
GLENN: Do you see anybody that is do you think Chris Christie would run?
INGRAHAM: I like him.
GLENN: I do, too.
INGRAHAM: I like him a lot and I think the idea of someone who is not working out every five seconds and you know, might be a little bit corpulent but has really good common sense ideas, that might actually be the anti Obama play and could be really fascinating. So, I love Christie. I mean, I like a lot of the people out there.
GLENN: Who do you think is going to run? Do you think Sarah Palin’s going to run?
INGRAHAM: I you know, I’m guessing what Sarah’s going to do. I think not, but
GLENN: I think so, too.
INGRAHAM: I don’t think so. I think she’s a king and queen maker and I think that’s an incredibly positive role and she’s an entrepreneur and, look, she has more experience than Barack Obama ever had and obviously wouldn’t be doing some of the bone headed things he’s doing. So, they would have been, you know, a now she would be leaps and bounds above what he’s done and, you know, that’s not saying much, but she would have done great.
GLENN: Can Mitt Romney win with his with his flirting with socialism in I mean, is he a progressive or is he
INGRAHAM: No.
GLENN: a good guy?
INGRAHAM: No, he’s not. I mean, I think that Romney I mean, look, Glenn, he got caught in this Iraq trap, I think, in the last election. He was talking a lot about Iraq and War on Terror and people were just tired of that. They wanted they wanted the CEO and chief in Romney and I told him at the time. I was a big supporter of his. I really like him a lot, but I didn’t follow through on growing the prosperity class message which I think he is now onto. He needs to mess up his hair a little bit, do a little do a little less Ward Cleaver and a little more Fonzie.
GLENN: It’s not going to happen. It’s not going to happen.
INGRAHAM: Maybe not, maybe not, but I like him.
GLENN: It’s not going to happen.
INGRAHAM: No.
GLENN: Newt Gingrich, can he win?
INGRAHAM: I think the problem, maybe, with Newt is he has incredible ideas and I like Newt very much. I mean, look, I love him. If he would be President tomorrow, I would be a happy person. I think what he might be perceived, though, Glenn is a little too 1994 and that people want, you know, 2012. They don’t want 1994. As much as they love Gingrich and I can be totally wrong, but that’s
GLENN: Do you see anybody out there that you say, Nobody really knows about this person, but this person you have to watch?
INGRAHAM: Well, no. I don’t really see anyone sort of emerging from the states that we don’t that we don’t know of and
GLENN: All right. Do you
INGRAHAM: Rick Perry is someone I think a lot of people are talking about, as well, and you know, Glenn Beck and people like that.
