absolutely correct.
I’ve criticised Palin on a number of things.
(including illegal immigration.)
but, the point is this article is valid.
making a big deal about “executive experience” is fine.
but, a failed executive, who doesn’t fix problems,
who grows the government, making it BIGGER,
when big government and spending is the problem,
is worse than NO executive experience!
Palin is weak on immigration, etc. how about discussing something more important, than oil companies which did fine under her?
i have 3 main issues.
1) Cut spending and shrink government.
2) stop illegal immigration.
(preferably by stopping benefits. AND building a fence!)
3) stop Islam.
(no sharia law, no special treatment of Islam.
and any candidate who praises the “Religion of Peace”,
and quotes approvingly from the Quran, is a NON-STARTER.)
personally, i dislike Bachmann. but right now, others like Perry (who endorsed Guiliani and AL GORE!), aren’t even close to her on these 3.
our CHILDREN are in debt 14 trillion - $92,000 each !!!
...the picture worth 10,000 words here:

who has a RECORD of cutting government?
WHICH candidate, with or without “executive experience”,
will fix that?!?
I agree, Palin’s got to do better than she has on immigration and I’m hopeful she will when she rolls out the specifics of her platform.
Bachmann is IMO more right on the issues than anyone, but being right and ineffective doesn’t get you anywhere—especially in the office of the presidency.
Palin has been extraordinarily effective in getting conservative cost-cutting (especially) through bipartisan legislatures. She’s accomplished real, substantial change at every level she’s been in government.
Unfortunately, that is not the case with Bachmann at all. First IMO Bachmann would never win the nomination, let alone beat Obama, and second IMO Palin has the best chance at both.
Oh, and I have no question as to Palin’s support for Israel, our Constitution, and an unPC truth seeing and telling on Islam.
