I don't know how many times you've seen her in person, but I can guarantee you that she is a forthright, warm and delightful speaker who has had an enthusiastic response from every audience I've heard her address.
BTW, Palin isn't running, will you support a conservative or does slick looks and slick talk sway you more than conservative values?
My candidates are (in order):
(1) Anybody but Romney
(2) Anybody but Obama
I am not a Palin-bot (in case you missed my tagline).
If Bachmann gained the nomination, I would certainly vote for her as she would be head and shoulders over the current occupant, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have serious reservations about her at the moment.
She is, as I said, charisma deficient. The choir loves her, but she doesn’t have the ability to pull non-choir members into the fold.
I have concerns about her attendence at Oral Roberts University. Bluntly (imho) Oral Roberts was a heretic. The prosperity gospel he taught is not the same gospel your local baptist church preaches.
I have concerns about Bachmann’s relationship with John Eidsmoe. He was one of her law professors at ORU. She helped with one of his books. She has said he is one of her biggest influences (literally a mentor to her). He has also been disinvited from speaking at several tea party rallys recently, becuase it has come to light that he is linked to several racists organizations.
Eidsmoe is, imho, the potential ticking time bomb. When a tea party group disinvites someone because of racist ties, you can’t just chalk it up to the left calling everyone racist. If there’s a problem here and we better get a handle on it now rather than later.
