It means that MB has an uphill battle compounded by her own personality traits...I like the conservative attitude but can’t stand phony and frankly unnecessary grandstanding, playing for a great ‘storyline’. The conservative message plays great, just stick to it! And I will own ‘ it’ and others are saying it too! In the words of the great philosopher Forrest Gump, stupid is as....

This is what I was responding to:

The John Wayne thing makes her look like she is dumb...fire her staff that can’t follow the Google search ...but wait she’s an Iowan herself an oughta know better...just sayin’

I guess I missed whatever it is that you are talking about. What John Wayne thing?

I assume this was in response to my comment about "Just sayin'"

And I will own ‘ it’ and others are saying it too!

If so, other examples of irritants were the wide spread use of "myself" when "me" was the grammatically correct word. Some jock on TV used myself incorrectly and soon everyone was using it incorrectly. Another which is unfortunately still widespread is "Each and every .... " That is an obvious redundancy. Say either Each or say Every. They mean the same so why use both?

Now we have Just sayin' . I consider it a copout. We know you are saying it so why tell us you are? Do you have another meaning than the one expressed? If so, why did you say what you said instead of what you meant.

Just sayin'.

See how stupid that is?
