Just the sort of asininity I'd expect from O'Reilly. Aa if Biden does. I have to say that, lately, FR opinion seems to be recognizing O'Reilly for what he is -- an ass.
There was a time he was respected. Hopefully, that's over.
Problem is, despite the experience, he doesn't have a lick of sense.
I’ve been saying Rubio’s not experienced enough yet for a while now, so I’m glad O’Reilly echoed my sentiment, and bucked the wishes of the GOP elites who are pushing Rubio simply to try to get the Hispanic vote. The argument that Obama wasn’t experienced either is the WORST POSSIBLE argument I can imagine the Republicans making. We’re supposed to be using his deficiencies to distinguish ourselves from him, not to make excuses for ourselves. Besides, aren’t we arguing his term was a failure? So maybe we want to put up candidates who don’t have his same flaws.
Allen West strikes me as a much more reliable conservative to me. He sounds like someone who could fill the shoes of Cheney, Kemp, Gingrich, Reagan, etc. I don’t get that sense from Rubio at all. But I still wouldn’t nominate a candidate for V.P. who hasn’t at least served one term and won reelection to a second term in a major position like governor or senator, or been a house member who’s served at least 10 years and distinguished themselves in a leadership position. Private sector or military leadership experience of course could be its own form of qualifications, but those are my benchmarks for people who’ve been career politicians.
