I fully expect Perry to jump in also. We need to get the best choices up there to avoid another ‘08.

I’m warming up to Bachmann as a viable Cain alternative if he can’t gain traction.

I’m lukewarm on Perry but would take him over Mittwitt.

“I’m running for the presidency of the United States. And I don’t see that it’s the role of a President to go into states and interfere with their state laws.”

That was pure excellence. Basically she's telling social conservatives that she's one of them, but letting rogue libertine states know that she ultimately won't stop them from their ridiculous ideas if they so choose. A good balance, IMHO.

Romney won mainly because no one else laid a glove on him. And no one really tried, which was surprising.

I wonder why Bachmann didn’t go after Romneycare?

Romney isn’t a dumb guy, he can snow you with alot of crap and sound credible. I basically think they weren’t ready to debate him. You are going have to have your ducks in a row to punch thru all the policywonk garbage Romney will dish out if you go after him.

And someone really needs to.

If Bachmann can beat Romney in the first few primaries, she will rid us of him as a candidate - good for her!

She’ll have to pick someone named “Turner” as her running mate.

Rove created flavor of the week. Organized for Carter in 76. Rove connections from 2006. Ed Rollins Campaign manager. Stabs Palin in back. Only got in Tea Party at the beginning stages as directed by Rove.

Palin didn’t seem to fear any backlash from Romney when she spoke this:

Speaking near Boston’s Bunker Hill, the site of a famous U.S. Revolutionary War battle, Palin said, “In my opinion, any mandate coming from government is not a good thing.

“Even on a state level and even a local level, mandates coming from a governing body, it’s tough for a lot of us independent Americans to accept, because we have great faith in the private sector and our own families, and our own businessmen and women making decisions for ourselves, not any level of government telling us what to do,’’ Palin told reporters.”

My dream scenerio is Palin winning Iowa and Bachmann somehow knocking off Romney in New Hampshire.

Did you read the article? She was introducing herself and was trying to do so without getting negative on the field. Mittens will get his in time.

Palinophiles aren’t going to like the Michelle Surge, she’s stealing the support that rightfully belong to Sarah!

That was Algore’s campaign song and stump speech theme back in 2000.

RE: Palinophiles aren’t going to like the Michelle Surge, she’s stealing the support that rightfully belong to Sarah!

The question is this — what is the cutoff date for Palinophiles to conclude that Sarah isn’t running?

Personally, I’d have to say end of August. If by end of August 2011, we don’t see Sarah throwing her hat in the ring, we can conclude that Michele Bachmann is the only woman in the field.

Sigh.
Really, I like Michelle Bachmann.

But how many BACHMANN (turner) OVERDRIVE references am I going to see this week?

Dang, I forgot Algore used it. So much for that. Of course Algore stole it from Reagan.
