>> I finally have to admit, Bachmann came across terribly, IMO.
Shrill is the best way to describe her - and I’ve defended her for months. Gingrich clearly did NOT ‘offer to campaign for anyone who suppoerted PBA’.>>
Takes an adult to admit that on the forum, and I appreciate it. This is what has put me off on MB from the get go. Not only did she over play the issue at hand - reality dictates that not everyone we need for key votes will be with us on every single issue up and down the line.
We live in a Republic, and that means it is up to us to win peoples hearts and minds in the arena of ideas and means we CANNOT DEMAND 100% compliance until we do.
None of the problems facing us have to do with anything in the very tiny differences between MB and NG on life issues. Shame on her for trying to drive a wedge where none exists.
I don’t mind the truth. I do mind hyperbole that borders on telling an untruth.
