“the GOP FRONTRUNNER”

Doesn’t matter right now. Might not even matter later. Kind of like Citizen Herman Cain. Everyone was going nuts about him. Jump on that Cain Train!!! Send that money!! Santorum will not be the nominee. To think the country will put another novice, in office like they did Obama, who doesn’t have a day of leadership experience, is absurd. Being a leader and shouting out what you would do as a leader are two different things. That’s not saying he’s not a nice guy and a good Catholic, and a good Conservative, and likeable, and all that. He’s only now making a name for himself and later he’ll have to duke it out with Rubio once the citizenship issue is settled by the Supreme Court.

You might try shilling for Buddy Roemer — he’s the only guy left in the race with executive experience other than Romney.

I’m guessing you are crediting Newt Gingrich for being the “leader” of the house. But the Speaker of the house is not an executive leadership position. He doesn’t have a cabinet, he doesn’t have implementation organizations, he certainly has no experience running a government organization. Sure, it’s better than nothing, but only barely.

And Santorum had “leadership” positions, just smaller. Of course, you might as well say that I have leadership experience, because I was a senior patrol leader once, and also once was the president of a student religious organization.

There is simply no comparison between being the leader of a legislative branch, and being the executive of a city, state, or country. A mayor has more executive responsibilities than the speaker of the house does.

I gave up worrying about executive experience when Perry was gone.
