Questioning MB's creds?

Do a search on my screen name. I've been taking a beating today for doing just that. I think I make a damned good argument. :)

Sorry, I didn’t mean here, beancounter.
I meant the empty talking heads that keep trying to push her.

I know you are solid.

At some point Bachmann turned on Palin. I am beginning to wonder if Rep Bachmann approached Gov Palin about a potential slot on her ticket (should she run) and was rebuffed due to her lack of executive experience.

Bachmann has been tied to the Establishment from the git-go. Karl Rove helped her out in her first campaign. Rove calls her a "personal friend."

BTW, this Huck business today adds to some some other interesting tidbits floating around out there, such as Rick Perry having a private meeting with Rudy Giuliani tomorrow (per Politico) and Mark Levin revealing on his show today that he talked with Donald Trump by phone. He has blasted Trump for months but today he praised trump as a "gentleman" and said he doesn't think Trump will go 3rd party.

Levin also spent the better part of his first hour tonight chastising the conservative candidates for not going after Romney. He was not very happy with the debate, calling most of it "superficial nonsense." He said if conservatives can't draw sharp distinctions with Romney, he will win because of name ID and money.

The first sentence of #26 underscores a point I have been trying to make about Rep Bachmann. Her reality sometimes doesn't match her rhetoric.

Last night she made a big point of saying she had challenged her party "in private". Yeah, right.

I’d vote for a Palin / Huckabee ticket in a second.

This might be a very good thing.

Levin. Trump. Palin. Huckabee. Good momentum.

At this rate, it will be the Rino’s attempting to form a third party.

Some tea? :)

Have no idea what’s going on but the “DC outsiders” may be talking to one another and that’s a good thing IMO. Somebody’s got to stop Mittens from being annointed. It ain’t any of this current bunch in the race.

Rudy Giuliani ain’t a social conservative, but he doesn’t like Romney, either.

All I know is this:

The left views her as Sarah-lite.

They once made fun of her almost as badly as Palin.

MB hires Rollins, who trashes Palin. And MB stays silent.

MSM suddenly changes its tune on MB, calling her a front runner.

MB is playing all nicey nice with Romney.

MB will repeal Obamacare, but won't say a negative thing about Romneycare.

Something stinks, here. And remember, the MSM LOVED McCain, until he was nominated, and then they threw him to the fire while building Obama.

MB and every other candidate had better prepare themselves to be torched.

Palin, OTOH, has been through Hades and back with the MSM. She's been forged through media fire and come out stronger than ever.

I had predicted that Huck would endorse others before Sarah, and that he would only finally endorse her once she won the nomination

I still believe this to be the case, but I truly hope to be proven wrong!

Did you see Trump’s interview on Hannity tonight?
Would be fun if he got behind Sarah when she announces.

You got it right absolutely!!!

MB biggest support comes from MSM/Rep establishment, they only have 1 shared goal, and that`s for MB to somehow prevent Sarah from running.

These next few weeks are going to be tough to take because MSM/Republican establishment are all in for Bachmann. The msm polls (msm includes Fox and Rasmussen) will be coming out with bogus polls, they will probably have her ahead of Sarah. These will all be lies, just like Frank Luntz phony focus groups.

Hannity seems to want to have MB on a lot as well.

Hopefully MB will fizzle fast, she is just trash as far as I am concerned, I will never vote for MB

Didn’t see it but I know Trump likes Palin, a lot. In NYC, Palin hauled Trump down to Times Sq. to eat pizza. They could have hit some trendy Manhattan eatery, but this was in front of the whole world. I don’t think that was an accident. Messages needed to be sent. :)

The very next night on Fox, Palin talked in strong terms about a 3rd party if the GOP didn’t shape up.

Did she mention her 23 foster children? I only heard her say it 3 times in the debate last night.

Charity is supposed to be in secret no? I do not find her genuine

I hope Mark Levin wakes up to Bachmann, soon!
She sure plays him. She came on his radio program during her last campaign crying, “the meanies are out to destroy me” and his listeners sent her a lot of money. That along with the money Sarah drew for her meant a lot last time.

Once or twice is ok just to bring people who may have been living under a rock for the last 6 years up to speed. I just wonder how many times she gets to mention it before it becomes “Pimp my kids”

Doesn`t Mark know that she hired Rollins to trash Sarah? I thought he knew this, not to mention MB camp has been back stabbing Gov Palin for some time now.

Agreed.

Just saw Frank Luntz focus group on Hannity. They played a sound bite from her and when she mentioned the foster kids, the dials went way up for dems and pubs. Some stated they didn’t know she had done that. I think when everyone hears it 5,000 times they will get sick of it.

I was doing a little research on her. She had all of those kids in a 6-year period. She said they all had their chores and the big ones tended to the smaller ones. She took them in because ‘her heart just broke for those disadvantaged kids’. Guess she got the disadvantaged-kid situation solved because she hasn’t had to take any in since.

I know of people who take in foster kids just to get government aid...it is quite profitable for them. Not that I am insinuating anything...
