Yawn.
If you look at the substance of what he's done, he's more conservative than any of the three remaining in the race.
I agree. Newt talks tough, but after his initial success he lost his support in Congress, and not just RINO’s! Daniels isn’t dynamic but we talk about actions not words (Obama & Clinton), well review Daniels record in Indiana and he has done it!!!
It would have been more effective had Rush read Mitch’s remarks instead of using the sound bites.
Mitch just drones and makes every valuable thing he had to say sound dull and passionless.
I vehemently disagree. That was a pedestrian delivery of a pre-written speech.
If he were in a preaching class, at best I’d give it 7 out of 10....a low C.
Just another post SOTU suit with no real fire.
Rush is off his game here trying to play both ends against the middle.
Mitch Daniels is no conservative. You’ve been on FR three months and learned nothing.
Just to see this illegal alien strutting around in front of the cameras makes me sick to my stomach. Both he (Obambi), and the dummycrat party know that he is NOT the president because of his illegal alien status, and it breaks my heart to see him puking all over our government and everything that it stood for.
Again, there was no fire in the belly at all after this pathetic State of the Union speech by that monster.
"Speech" was broadcast on WCOW, Aimes, IA, KTQZ, Prescott, AZ, and KOOO, Corvalis, OR (on a pirate station).
Full text was also carried in the "Daily What" out of Cour de Lane, ID, the "Weekly Snooze" in Defunct, MN, and the wonderful if slightly biased "Top's Courier" in Wherever, ND.
As stated....yawn.
HOWEVER, all of the establishment commentators keep telling us that Newt will have trouble getting the nomination because of the 2 or 3 ballots that he isn't on and his “lack of organization and ground game”. How in the world could we possibly keep talking about bringing in someone new?! And if the Republican party knows what good for it, it will NOT bring us a smokey room, brokered convention candidate that did not receive a SINGLE cast ballot.
Was Rush watching the same reply speech I was? His delivery was awful. He made a weird wide-eye gesture every time he tried emphasize a phrase. I can’t take it. Isn’t there anyone in the GOP who can make a friggin’ speech?
It’s too late for Mitch.
We need to decide which one of the candidates we like and support him.
I agree with Rush.
There was steel in his speech. It was well constructed and communicated the real need to begin to reunite the country and reject class envy.
Mitch messed up in some of his early speeches but what he’s done fighting for Right to Work in Indiana is very positive.
yea what ever.
Some of it good but delivered as usual wit no passion, no emotion and looked like a robot to turn people off and to sleep.
Mitch now being put out there incase Newt beats Romney, typical establishment crap.
Why the hell can’t the establishment get out of the beltway and the north east and see what we in the real world really want.
Surely there has to be someone who can give a speech with passion, drive and emotion not the usual crap we see on the floor like McConnell
Let's talk about who knows what about Daniels for a minute. I'm a Hoosier. I hope you are too. Daniels is one of the few that talks more moderate and ACTS more conservative. He reduced and leveled property taxes, Lowered business taxes, has resisted state legislation regulating businesses (smoking, etc.), he sued the fed for Chrystler bond holder dismissal, he sued the fed over obamacare.
We were in a deficit budget situation when he came to office. We are now in a budget surplus situation. He cut state government in everything from government autos to education budets.
Have you heard the latest? Indiana will become a Right to Work state soon. Democrats have been fleeing the state for two years to avoid it.
What say you of his being a moderate?
said the same.
The speech was like those on the floor, no passion, no emotion, boring, .
For crying out loud there has to be someone with character, passion, emotion and fire in their belly to give a speech and not just sound like a drone.

Agreed with #5. He is not a charasmatic speaker. He is not a dynamic personality. His actions are more conservative than his words.
I’m not convinced he would do well in a presidential election. But he is a great governor.
Rush is a RINO. Yeah the content of the speech was excellent but Daniels got no applause from the non audience, he didn’t swear fealty to Newt, he had no mediots to use as foils and he wasn’t juggling 4 balls while dressed as a clown.
