I think Mike Pence did fine. He’s just pretty laid back, more statesmanlike in his demeanor than some representatives. I agree with Miss Marple that he probalby wouldn’t be a great candidate for president (at least not yet).
It’s hard for me to watch Chris Van Hollen speak. He tries real -ly hard to en-un-ci-ate ev-er-y word to the point of it be-ing dis-trac-ting.
He looks like Terry McCauliffe’s little brother.
I am going to have to leave because I have work I need to get done.
Ohio voters should check on how exactly it is that the Longaberger Basket Company of Dresden, Ohio supplied the basket for Michelle’s infamous pickled okra gift basket (complete with a “Made especially for Michelle Obama” name plate and NOT “A Gift of the People of the United States of America.”)
The target market for those baskets is not the Obama voter! I know, because years ago I used to be a Longaberger consultant. I want to know if the company was pressured into providing those baskets for free. I think they are not thrilled about it because it is not mentioned on their web site, unlike their arrangements with Tommy Hilfiger and Paula Deen (who is also a democrat, in case you didn’t know, although she mostly keeps her mouth shut).
Tami Longaberger is a very nice woman, but would not be able to withstand White House pressure. (”Nice little basket company ya got there, Tami. Shame if you had an audit or something...”)
I sure would like to know the truth about that arrangement. Especially how that company was chosen over other US basket companies. Could the Ohio swing state problem for the dems have had anything to do with it? Who is the rep in the Dresden area, and is he in trouble?
Anyway, information on this seemingly minor item might be very illuminating.
I will check back on the thread this evening. Everyone have a nice afternoon!
As one who’s is sick to death of all the shouting, I found Pence’s demeanor refreshing!
I think Pence is likely too nice to a fault, but his calm demeanor compared to Van Hollen and Gregory’s sure emphasized their bad behavior.
HAR!
