If you have to “walk back” statements that you should have known better than to make, it just shows poor skills to me. Or you hired a bunch of incompetent advisors. :>}

If you have to “walk back” statements that you should have known better than to make, it just shows poor skills to me.

Especially when it is a simple, everyday subject that your instincts should be right on, when it is one of the few opinions that any politician should be able to speak on from the heart, without the need to think first.

It seems that speaking from the heart on guns was a mistake for Carson, like Romney, he evidently needed a prepared statement to handle the gun question.
