Paw just finished kissing up to Romney just in case Romney wins
Now hes going to diss Bachmann ???
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Right...Newt is not only intellectually highly competent and knowledgeable with good ideas, he is also a statesman. Too bad, the Dems destroyed his chances long ago and although he keeps hanging in there, I doubt he would take the nomination.
[Governor Rick Perry] Commemorating the [Muslim Leader] Aga Khan's Visit (April 12, 2008)
I agree, Newt has just been in Politics so long he knows all the in’s and out’s more than the rest...
He would be a good advisor....
Chris Wallace is looking particularly orange tonight. Brings up Bachmann migraines and asks Pawlenty if she's a poor leader or if he's just upset she's beating him in the polls. Pawlenty says she has "non-existent" legislative record, not a record of results.
Dogs rule!
Have you noticed WHO they are barking at? ha. They may pick the next candidate.
RomneyBOT Chris Wallace pits Michele Bachmann
against Tim Pawlenty by insulting her.
What a shameless stinking SOB is Wallace.
A hater of women representing FOX.
Pawlenty vs. Bachmann on Bachmann’s alleged lack of accomplishments.
Minnesota nice being put to the test. Chris Wallace gets mega-groans.
t-paw is right about Michelle’s record.
He just bashed Bachmann!
You go girl
Or perhaps when Sarah drives her bus into the studio...LOL!
Bachmann is on fire tonight!
So what are Palin supporters going to do when she endorses him?
When are these clowns going to go after Romney?
Will Wallace ask Bachmann whether she is ‘flakey’ again?
RomneyBOT Chris Wallace takes a second wipe at
Michele Bachmann for his love, Mitt Romney.
Scurrilous Wallace insults Ms. Bachmann on her
resume and health.
She defends herself, So Stinkbag Wallace takes
a second swipe.
I don’t think that was a coward’s answer. He supported Cut, Cap & Balance and refused to accept the premise the Obama-negotiated compromise bill would’ve come to his desk as president.
he is sooooooo scaired of strong women!
Wallace is waaaaay out of line, but this is sure a better debate than CNN.
Bachmann responds by going after Pawlenty on issues like Cap & Trade, individual mandates...
